A quick definition of nepotism:

Term: Nepotism

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Nepotism is when someone in a position of power gives special treatment or jobs to their family members, even if they are not the most qualified.

Example: If a boss hires their son or daughter for a job without considering other candidates, that is an example of nepotism.

Nepotism can be unfair because it doesn't give everyone an equal chance to get a job or promotion. It can also lead to less qualified people being hired or promoted, which can hurt the company or organization in the long run.
