What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NC
I am joining a financial firm. Among the many papers that I have to sign one of them requires me to get approval for any outside Business Activity. They also mention that any of my household member also needs to get approval. Does this mean that my wife would need approval for her job from my employer. Does this mean that i cannot mow my neighbor's lawn over the weekend and get paid for it. I am in the IT. So does it mean that I cannot write a software program for my friend or develop an app without approval of my employer...This does not make any sense to me as to why i need to get their approval. the way they have it worded it would seem like I cannot even hold a yard sale. Outside Business Activity is defined by them as any activity where an employee is engaged in a non 'the firm' business including, but not limited to
thanks in advance.
