(a) Under no circumstances shall a full-time employee have other employment which conflicts with the policies, objectives and operations of the Village. In addition, an employee shall not become employed with a second employer whose interests might be in conflict with those of the Village.
(b) Employment "conflicts" as set forth in this policy are when a second job impairs the employee's ability to perform the duties of his or her position.
(c) Full-time employment by the Village shall be considered the employee's primary occupation, taking precedence over all other occupations.
(d) "Outside" employment shall be a concern to the Village only if it adversely affects the employee's job performance. Two common employment conflicts which may arise are:
(1) Time Conflict- Defined as when the working hours required of a "secondary job" directly conflicts with the scheduled working hours of an employee's job with the Village; or when the demands of a "secondary job" prohibit adequate rest, thereby adversely affecting the quality standard of the employee's job performance of the Village.
(2) Interest Conflict- Defined as when the employee engages in "outside employment" which tends to compromise his or her judgment, actions and/or job performance with the Village or creates actual conflict with Village interests.
(e) Should the Mayor feel that an employee's outside employment is adversely affecting the employee's job performance, the Mayor may recommend that the employee refrain from such activity. However, any conflict, policy infraction, or other specific offense which is the direct result of an employee's participation in outside employment shall be disciplined in such a manner that is consistent with the policies set forth in this chapter.
