    It’s nepotism if the person doing the hiring/appointing employs their relatives. If your husband didn’t hire you, it’s not nepotism.

    Also to note, nepotism has a connotation of being bad but there’s nothing inherent in the definition that says it is. If your husband hires you, it’s possible you might be the most qualified person for the job. However, there’s always going to be the appearance of favoritism or cronyism, which is why it’s ethically frowned-on.
