Hi, If you are working as a full-time regular employee, then you are not supposed to do a part-time job in another private company. Most employers restrict this, and there will be a clause in the appointment letter prohibiting dual employment.
Alternatively, if you are offering consultancy services as a retainer for fixed hours, then you may extend the service to other companies as well.
While working as an employee in a private company, joining another company as an intern is not advisable.

Hi, Based on your question, here I'm answering it step by step:
1. You asked if an employee working in a private company can have a part-time job in another private company. The answer is no; dual employment is not advisable. However, in the current scenario, if the employment offer issued does not mention anything about dual employment, the employee can work part-time in another organization without it being reflected on the EPFO site. The only way to check for dual employment is through EPFO, so review the appointment letter you issued. If you haven't informed the employee about dual employment with evidence, you have no grounds to object.
2. Can an employee working in a private company join another private company as an intern? The answer is no. However, if the employee is not in a regular full-time position with your organization or is hired on an hourly basis or through a manpower agency without an internship or dual employment agreement, then it may be permissible.
I hope this helps clarify your inquiries.
