The Hiring of Relatives. The District does not prohibit the employment of relatives or domestic partners in the same department or division provided that neither relative/partner participates in or in any way influences recommendations or decisions specifically affecting the appointment, retention, evaluation, tenure, work assignment, promotion, demotion or salary of the other relative/partner; or in any action, event, or circumstance where a real or perceived conflict of interest may exist for the parties. In those instances where developments cause one relative/partner to have recommending or decision-making responsibilities over another relative/partner, the District may transfer one of the parties, within a reasonable amount of time. If a transfer is not possible, these functions, as they apply to the related persons, shall be performed by the next higher level of supervision/administration in the department or division until a transfer can be accomplished.
