Currently I have no 2nd job restrictions, however, when I was in contract security our policy stated that we were not allowed to be employed by another contract agency."Alright guys listen up, ya'll have probably heard this before, Jackson vs. Securiplex corporation; I am a private security officer, I have no State or governmental authority. I stand as an ordinary citizen. I have no right to; detain, interrogate or otherwise interfere with your personal property-... basically all that means is I'm a cop."-Officer Ernie

I'm curious, where I worked corrections,the policy was "this is your primary job, your second job can't interfere. They also tried to work with anyone who had a second job. It surprises me that my last post and my current job both have a policy prohibiting second jobs. Is it a Florida thing?Booth

Originally posted by Andy TaylorIf you are working contract security it has to do with protecting company secrets. They don't want you giving information to a competitor. Or even stealing accounts for your other boss."Alright guys listen up, ya'll have probably heard this before, Jackson vs. Securiplex corporation; I am a private security officer, I have no State or governmental authority.

Sorry if I am not making myself clear, but my restrictions are "no second job", period. Nothing about other security companies, non competes, etc. I asked. No second job means no second job. If you read more into my post, maybe you need to go back and look at your terms of employment! LOLBooth

Originally posted by Marchetti, David, MNever had that issue come up, but if I did I would laugh " i.e. when you pay all of my bills than you can tell me I can't work a second job ". I could see no wanting someone to work for another security company, but stopping them from getting a second job I would think is illegal criminally and civilly. i.e. let's just say my lawyers would be getting a call on the issue. You do what you have to do to pay the bills including working a second job.
Sec. 53a-192. Coercion: Class A misdemeanor or class D felony. (a) A person is guilty of coercion when he compels or induces another person to engage in conduct which such other person has a legal right to abstain from engaging in, or to abstain from engaging in conduct in which such other person has a legal right to engage, by means of instilling in such other person a fear that, if the demand is not complied with, the actor or another will: (1) Commit any criminal offense; or (2) accuse any person of a criminal offense; or (3) expose any secret tending to subject any person to hatred, contempt or ridicule, or to impair any person's credit or business repute; or (4) take or withhold action as an official, or cause an official to take or withhold action. (1969, P.A. 828, S. 194; 1971, P.A. 871, S. 48; P.A. 92-260, S. 75.)
(3) expose any secret tending to...
This means that if you are forced to divulge a trade secret by another person which a) subjects any person to hatred, contempt, or ridicule, or b) impairs any person's credit or business repute.
If you had brought a criminal charge against a company for this, I'm wondering how easily they could sue for malicious prosecution (assuming any prosecutor can't read statute and tell you this themselves)...
As far as, "OMG U DON"T LIF HEAR U DON"T KNO!" Stow it. Any of us can read the snippets of C.G.S. you post and bold in interesting and new ways without having to live there.Some Kind of Commando Leader

Our corporate policy is that it can not be in the mall we work at, and for another agency of the same field. Other then that, I have room to help out any of my staff that wants a second job, and school. I am a big pusher of the school thing though.. I will make wonders happen for my people that do! It is very important on our agenda!Deputy Sheriff

When I worked for the Tribe, years ago, I couldn't work for another agency within the Tribe, nor another tribe.
With the state, the only restriction was against working for another state agency.
Both the Sheriff's Dept and the Police Dept had rules against working as private security, a towtruck driver, bouncer, bail bondsman or PI.
AKAIK, we don't have any restrictions where I'm at now.

Lack of response suggests most of you only have non compete restrictions. The no second job must be a Florida thing. It can't be a coincidence because I ran into it at my last two jobs. Props where props are due, David Marchetti got one thing right, when you pay my bills, then you can tell me where to work.Booth

We have no restictions on second or third jobs. One guy worked a full time 2-10 job, a full time 11-7 job, AND a part time 11-7 job on his nights off from his full time 11-7 gig. 96 hours a week! They were all pretty good jobs too, probably averaged around $18 an hour+. I don't know how he did it.

It was base of minimum plus per-runs, but it helped with meals and stuff that the county didn't wanna pay for (we were getting paid pretty poorly at the time, a lot of guys were eating ramen noodles cooked in coffee mugs in microwaves for breakfast and dinner, lunch being provided).
Ya just sleep when ya can (we carpooled on the weekends to the jail, being it was a 4 hour drive, there was plenty of snoring going on!), study when you can, and pray for a raise soon.
I think my raise was due in on the Titanic...
