Direct Response: The JBS USA Independent Advisory Board is made up of four, male, non-executive board members. Each have served on the Board for three years and brought knowledge from diverse backgrounds in the private and public sectors.

Direct Response: Each Team Member, including members of Independent Advisory Board, must provide a disclosure to JBS USA identifying any and all potential conflicts of interest he or she may encounter. No Team Member should serve as a director of a forprofit corporation without disclosing the position to JBS USA’s Ethics Officer and obtaining approval to serve.
