Question
Two members of an immediate family are employed by the library. They were hired long ago at different times by a previous administration. After many years and changes in leadership one family member is now in a supervisory position over the other. There is no other supervisor for him to report to. Is there any reason why the employee cannot continue to be employed?
Answer
There are many scenarios where one family member supervising another goes just fine: everyone gets along, the supervisor’s feedback and constructive criticism is cheerfully received, and everyone—from trustees to fellow employees—finds things fair, above-board, and ship-shape.
