NGHOA is dedicated to upholding the greatest standards of openness, transparency, and responsibility in all of its interactions and partnerships while operating professionally and fairly. The purpose of NGHOA’s Anti-Nepotism policy is to avoid favoritism, the appearance of or potential for favoritism, and conflicts of interest and loyalty often associated with nepotism. Nepotism is inconsistent with the NGHOA’s longstanding policy of making employment decisions and other decisions based solely on its needs and individual qualifications, skills, ability and performance.
