(A) Employment conflicts, as described in this policy, are when a second job impairs an employee’s ability to perform the duties of his or her position.
(B) Full-time employment by the city shall be considered the employee’s primary occupation, taking precedence over all other occupations. “Outside” employment, or moonlighting, shall be a concern to the department head only if it adversely affects the job performance of the employee’s city job.
(C) Should the department head feel that an employee’s outside employment is adversely affecting the employee’s job performance, the department head may recommend, but may not demand, that the employee refrain from such activity.
(D) However, any conflict, policy infractions, or other specific offense that is the direct result of an employee’s participation in outside employment will subject the employee to discipline or discharge, in a manner that is otherwise consistent with the policies set forth in this manual.
