Hi hhurmade,
It purely depends on to the policy regulation which the present employer has in practice. Many companies don't allow their employees to work in any other company for part time, consultants, advisors, etc.

Harish,
First of all please let me know that is there anything regarding any sort of alternative work policy exist in your organization???
As per my knowledge it depends upon the company to company.
There are few sectors who allow the consultant work like IT industry.
Please let me know the nature of your company and industry.

Educational institutions encourage consultancy; however they claw back a certain percentage of the earnings from such consultancy work. Have a nice day. Simhan

There is a difference between another full-time employment on one hand and consultancy or similar assignments, on the other hand.
Even in Govt. and Public sector (where such rules are most stringent); there is no bar on "consultancy" work; unless otherwise specified (or prohibited) as in the case of Doctor's - who get Non-Practising Allowances (NPA) for not doing any such private consultations; similarily govt. teachers are barred from taking private tuitions.
I have myself "invited" senior govt. officials of the level of secretaries and senior professors/HOD's of govt. institutions to deliver talks, lectures, workshops, training sessions etc. on "honorarium" and travel and stay arrangement being provided by the company.
Hope this clears the doubt on this matter.
Warm regards.

Hi
Generally terms and conditions of appointment order describes that an employee should his time totally for the betterment of the organisation where he is employed. He can not by any stretch of imagination, can devote his time to other organisations. This is normally done to avoid leaking of organisational secrets and also to ensure total devotion to the employer.
However, he can devote his leisure time on holidays his services for NGOs for purely for social service.

Definetely not unless & until the current employer has given the permission.
If any employee found to be working with another organization as a part-time or consultant etc., the current employer can take action against such employee.

There are multiple ways of looking at it. True, you cannot normally take-up an additional employment as most employers will contractually forbid you from doing so.
Even so, in your freetime, you might do some work, that is not related to the work you do at your company or the business of your company, as a hobby that could give you remuneration. For instance, if you play the guitar at a concert and earn a few bucks while working as a software engineer, it cannot be normally treated as an additional employment.
Hence, the answer is more on a case-to-case basis.
Some Pun:: Unless you are sure, never ask your current employer... :-) He might think you are not adequately loaded and change your workday from a 12 hour workday to a 14 hour workday :-)
