  • Nepotism Perceived by Managers in Northern Sweden
    Nepotism perceived by managers in northern Sweden - An explorative study on attitudes towards nepotism and its usage Authors: Carina Gustafsson & Hanna Norgren Supervisor: Alicia Medina Student Umeå School of Business and Economics Spring semester 2014 Bachelor thesis, 15hp Acknowledgements In this acknowledgement we would like to express our appreciation towards the managers who participated and allowed us explore their perceptions and attitudes. Their contribution was highly valuable for us in order to conduct the research. We are also very grateful towards our supervisor Alicia Medina, who has been of great significance for us during the research process. Her contribution of knowledge, guidance and support constitutes the foundation of the making of this this thesis. 2014-05-26 Carina Gustafsson and Hanna Norgren II Abstract This explorative study examines human resource-, executive- and site manager’s perception of nepotism in northern Sweden. Nepotism is a concept that describes the situation where a company values an applicant’s family ties in front of qualifications in the recruitment process. However, nepotism can as well be described from a broader perspective as the situation where a company values other social connections of significance that the applicant’s has at the company. What both of these situations have in common is that both applicants are hired due to their connections at the company, and not because of their skills. The objective of this study was to investigate attitudes, if the managers perceived the concept as positive or negative, an explanation for why companies use the concept and factors that might justify the usage of nepotism.

  • SOP for Managing Nepotism in Research And
    SOP ORIC/COI 19-01 OFFICE OF RESEARCH INTEGRITY AND COMPLIANCE Standard Operating Procedure for Managing Nepotism in Research and Related Conflicts of Interest POLICY: Interpersonal relationships that inherently create conflicts of interest are required to be disclosed and managed appropriately to maintain objectivity in research and provide assurance that personnel engaged in research are able to work in an environment free of bias where they can be objectively supervised and evaluated. Personnel appointments on a research grant and/or any other externally funded account established specifically to support research activities are normally restricted to persons who are not members of the immediate family of the Principal Investigator or account manager. Exceptions are limited to appointments specified by name in proposals submitted to, reviewed, and approved by an external funding agency. PURPOSE: This SOP provides steps necessary to ensure that concerns of nepotism or interpersonal relationships that can potentially influence objectivity in research are properly vetted and managed when related persons or persons involved in an amorous relationship engage in the same sponsored research activity. BACKGROUND: This SOP operationalizes the regulatory requirements of ECU Policy 06.05.02 and ECU Regulation 10.45.02. Investigators should conduct their affairs in a manner that avoids or minimizes conflicts of interest and must respond appropriately when conflicts of interest arise. SCOPE: This procedure applies to all students, employees and volunteers who have interpersonal relationships that could potentially affect the design, conduct, or reporting of research or create an environment or circumstances that might appear to favor a particular member of the research team or create an environment where a member of the research team could be subject to undue influence.
