No management employee (supervisor) may hire or supervise a member of their family.

For this purpose, the following definitions shall apply.

"Family" means the spouse or same sex domestic partner of the employee; any children of the employee; any children of the spouse or same sex domestic partner; brothers, sisters or parents of the employee; and brothers, sisters, parents of the spouse or same sex domestic partner.

"Supervisor" means any individual having authority in the interest of the college to hire, transfer, suspend, lay off, recall, promote, discharge, assign, reward, or discipline other employees, or responsibility to direct them, or adjust their grievances, or effectively to recommend such action, if in connection therewith, the exercise of such authority is not of a merely routine or clerical nature but requires the use of independent judgement (Oregon Revised Statutes 244).

Questions about these guidelines should be referred to a Human Resources representative.
