I don't think it is as simple as the majority of responses imply.

But can you give some more information?

Does the nephew have any pertinent experience or skills or knowledge for your sort of business? What kind of work has he been doing up to now? Could he literally work in the trenches, nailing forms and pouring concrete etc, or would you have to find a paper-handling and telephone-dialing sort of job for him? What sort of income is he used to, what could he survive on? Is he incapable of finding another job? Would you actually have to lay off an existing employee to take the nephew on?
