a. Interferes, directly or indirectly, with the regular work of the employee;

b. Is unreasonable in amount;

c. Has been offered because of the employee's official connection to the System;

d. Uses any district resources including, but not limited to computers, copiers, materials, equipment or offices

e. Was not submitted in advance to the supervisor

D.4.02 Additional Employment - Consulting or Self Employment:

When a fulltime employee of the System wishes to engage in additional employment, including self-employment, the employee must report the nature and scope of the outside employment to his/her supervisor.

A conflict of interest will not occur for a full-time employee if the self employment or consulting does not involve use of System resources, does not interfere with time in which the employee is working for the System, or does not interfere with the employee's work responsibilities.

D.4.03 Commissioned Peace Officer:
Peace officers seeking to work additional jobs are subject to the additional procedures and guidelines prepared by the administrator serving as the Commissioner, or his or her designee.
