Are you allowed to do that? Every full time job offer I've read forbids outside work.
- tonybaroneee 12y agoThe company I work for allows it as long as you sign a Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement. It states that the side job can't directly or indirectly compete with the company you're working for, nor can you use company resources for it. Also, it can't affect your performance during your regular work hours.
- vonmoltke 12y agoI have not personally seen a contract provision or company policy that was a blanket prohibition on outside work.
- tieTYT 12y agoOdd, I literally just saw one that did exactly that. It even forbade "outside activity" and I had to ask WTH that meant.
- icedchai 12y agoI've seen those. And ignored them. The worst I've had happen was an uncomfortable conversation. Nothing changed.
- vonmoltke 12y agoI have seen some indications[1] that such a clause may be illegal. [1] http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/off-duty-conduct-employee-rights-33590.html http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/off-duty-conduct-empl...
