             Nepotism                       How its affect organization?
                                                  How to manage?

           The term "nepotism" comes from the Italian word
         "nepos,"  which  meaning  "nephew."  Nepotism  is  a
         type  of  unequal  workplace  procedure  in  which  a
         boss's or manager's family members or friends are
         hired  for  reasons  other  than  their  talents,

         experience, or knowledge.


             It  is  important  to  note  that  not  every  friend  or

         relative hired as a manager is a case of nepotism. It
         is not nepotism if the recruited friend or relative is
         highly experienced, competent, and hardworking.
         Nepotism  refers  to  situations  in  which  a  related
         employee  is  either  unsuitable  for  the  position  or

         has an unfair advantage in the workplace.
