Outside Employment

Administrative Procedure 5.407

A full-time employee of Elgin Community College may have an outside job provided that he or she:

• Obtains the prior approval of his or her supervisor, who must notify the Chief Human Resources Officer;
• Performs satisfactorily in his or her position at ECC; and
• Reports to work as scheduled.   

Approval for outside employment will not be arbitrarily and capriciously withheld.  

ECC holds all employees to the same performance standards and scheduling expectations irrespective of any outside jobs they might have. In order to remain employed at ECC, an employee must terminate an outside job if it negatively affects his or her job performance or ability to fulfill all job responsibilities, which may change over time.
