Complete Your Compliance Information

GRPS requires every employee (temporary or permanent) to complete a nepotism form. Nepotism is the favorable treatment of family members in business practices.  The nepotism form must be resubmitted every year. 

Board Policy 5240 requires employees to identify their known relatives and intimate relationships in order to avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of such conflicts in the recruitment, hiring, employment, placement, and evaluation processes.  "Relative," for the purpose of this policy, is defined as a spouse, parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent, sibling, cousin, child, niece, nephew, grandchild, guardian, ward, household member, partner in an intimate relationship, or the spouse of any of these or any step relationship with any of these.
