: The application of the controllability principle to eliminate external factors remains problematic in practice. A key issue concerns the fact that the manager may get some private pre-decision signal about this external environment and may use this information to mitigate or amplify its impact. The question is analyzed in a multitask agency model in which the agent has a limited liability, thus earns rents and is not indifferent to the task performed. Under certain conditions, it is proved that the optimal contract only selectively eliminates the impact of the environment. It does neutralize it if the agent reports a signal of low impact of the environment but does not filter it out if the agent reports a signal of high impact.
