[Adopted 12-3-2020 by Ord. No. 20-17-2020]
No member of a family shall be in a position that provides supervision over another member of the same family. This precludes the acceptance of applications for employment from relatives for positions in the same department where supervision conflicts exist or where, through promotion, conflicts could exist. When, in the normal selection process, relatives of Township employees are considered for appointment or promotion, the selection shall be deferred to the Township Committee for final action.
No person who is a relative of any paid full-time or part-time employee shall be considered for employment by the Township where one of said relatives will be in a supervisory position over the other.
The provisions of § 31-102 of this section shall not apply in the case of seasonal part-time employment.
For the purposes of this section, a "relative" is a mother, father, son, daughter, brother, sister, husband, wife, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
This policy is not for the purpose of depriving any citizen of an equal chance for employment with the Township, but is solely intended to eliminate the potential for preferential treatment of the relatives of governmental personnel.
