Many states in the US don’t have the moonlighting protections that California does. A paid assignment outside of their main employer will very frequently will be basis for dismissal, or at least will demand prior notification.

- kasey_junk 4y agoThis is wrong in the jurisdiction I live in (Illinois) where an employment contract is allowed to state that outside work is not allowed. Most contracts I’ve had will actually state “without manager approval” but that’s just as bad in many instances. [later] Actually this became illegal in Illinois at the beginning of this year, though the protections don’t extend to clients or competitors.
- warrenm 4y agoThe contract may state it It's unenforceable, according to everyone I've interacted with in the state :)
- kasey_junk 4y agoIt is now. As of Jan 1 2022. I can assure you it was enforced before that.

- morelisp 4y agoEven in CA, moonlighting protections don't extend to clients or competitors, which is often the places you might want to interview.
