Currentness
Appointing powers shall hire, transfer, and promote all employees on the basis of merit and fitness in accordance with civil service statutes, rules and regulations. Nepotism is expressly prohibited in the state workplace because it is antithetical to California's merit based civil service system.

(1) A statement that the appointing power is committed to merit-based hiring and that nepotism is antithetical to a merit-based civil service system.
(2) A definition of “nepotism” as an employee's use of influence or power to hire, transfer, or promote an applicant or employee because of a personal relationship.
(3) A definition of “personal relationship” as persons related by blood, adoption, current or former marriage, domestic partnership, or cohabitation.
(4) A statement that prohibits participation in the selection of an applicant for employment by anyone who has a personal relationship with the applicant, as defined in section 83.6.
(5) A statement that prohibits the direct or first-line supervision of an employee with whom the supervisor has a personal relationship, as defined in section 83.6.
