ERMU policy on supplemental employment: SUPPLEMENTAL EMPLOYMENT The Utilities does not restrict employees from engaging in outside employment. However, the Utilities expects regular full-time employees to consider Utilities work their primary employment. No Utilities employee may engage in outside employment that interferes with the performance of his/her duties with the Utilities, that represents a conflict of interest, or that may influence or bias an employee's job related decision making ability. The Utilities will not change an employee's work hours to facilitate the scheduling of any outside employment. If a supervisor believes an employee's outside employment is detrimental to the Utilities and his/her position, the employee may be asked to discontinue the outside employment. If an employee is asked to discontinue outside employment and fails to do so, he/she may be subject to discipline up to and including termination. Proposed addition to Handbook: FIRE DEPARTMENT PARTICIPATION Employees are allowed to participate as a part-time paid firefighter in a Fire Department. A non- exempt employee will be allowed to respond to fire calls as approved and determined by his/her department supervisor, based on the work assignments and responsibilities of the employee and department. Non-exempt employees responding to fire calls during scheduled work hours will need to use vacation time for time away from work, and exempt employees need to use vacation time or make-up time for the same scenario. An employee may not respond to fire calls while on-call for the Utilities. 360
