A former municipal hospital administrator spotlighted in The Post for using her position to help family members land jobs in the system has agreed to pay a $12,000 fine, the Conflicts of Interest Board announced Monday. <\/p>\n
The Post disclosed on March 5 that Gloria Velez was forced to resign as a senior human-resources director in October 2014 after investigators found she had helped relatives get jobs at Health and Hospitals Corp. <\/p>\n
Velez told The Post at the time that the charges were not true and she had nothing to hide. <\/p>\n
But in her settlement, she admitted violating the citys ethics rules when it came to a daughter and her partner. <\/p>\n
Velez said she arranged for her high-school-age daughter to be an unpaid intern in HHCs central office between June 2003 and August 2006 even though she wasnt screened or in any formalinternship program. <\/p>\n
Instead, I directed my subordinates the associate director of human resources and a personnel\/labor relations associate to supervise the work of my daughter during the internship, Velez said in the settlement. <\/p>\n
Velez also conceded that her daughters domestic partner reported to her. <\/p>\n
Glorias husband, George Velez Sr. and her children, George Velez Jr., Gina and Gianelle Velez. <\/p>\n
