      It is the District’s policy not to hire, transfer or promote relatives of employees into situations where the possibility of favoritism or conflict of interest might exist.  Relatives are defined as immediate family to include: spouses, parents, grandparents, in-laws, brother, sisters, sons, daughters, or members of an employee’s household.

      Applicants will not be hired nor employees promoted or transferred into the same library, department or job under the following situations:

      1.   When one relative would have authority to supervise, promote, terminate or discipline the other.

      2.   When one relative would be responsible for reviewing and/or evaluating the work of the other.

      3.   When other circumstances exist which would place the relatives in a situation of actual or reasonably foreseeable conflict between the District’s interests and their own.
