Most of the employees in India are moonlighting only for their one and only employer with no extra benefit. No overtime wages on work done at home. The employers are overloading the existing workforce so that they take home part of their daily work. This is the ground reality. Most of the employees are left with literally no time for moonlighting for others.
Not entirely true. Many of my friends have taken up second job mostly as consultant. You got to grow spine to say NO to working overtime. IT in india is booming and companies are finding hard to hold on to their employees, employees have too many options thats why resignation rate is so high.
The HR was trying to take action on my colleague, who worked in his ancestral fields on the weekend, saying that it was against the moonlighting policy. After many arguments, HR said that if the income reflects in your income tax, it's moonlighting. To which he replied," I have been working in this company for 6 years and longer still in my fields. I am yet to reach the minimum bracket to pay income tax."
moon lighting is the result of imployers refusal to pay a living wage to employees in order to keep up with the cost of living, forcing them to hold down a second and sometimes a third job to get bye, those second and third jobs could have gone to more impoverished able bodies, if living wages were enforced.
Now, that is a curious case of selective burnouts. When employees were overworking without overtime pay for all these years, there were no burnout concerns from employers !
True. As freelancer I sometimes take two jobs. Because my work is on computer I can get away. The main reason is because I have a lot of downtime and I need to get all the work I can handle. It’s not optimum but you do what you need to do.
Indian school teachers have been moonlighting for years - job as a teacher and tuitions in the evening, although it's considered illegal in many countries.
*Indians literally INVENTED moonlighting* before it was even a word ! Every Indian Govt DOCTOR has a private practice; every TEACHER gives private tuition, every Public PROSECUTOR has own Law firms .... Hell even Indian MINISTERS moonlight (so many MPs do private businesses or legal or medical practice)... even BEGGARS in India moonlight: blind during the day - disabled at night!
@@taka-taktak 90% of teachers in india insists there students in school to join his/her tution for better marks or whatever is the case, School teacher= tution teacher.
It's India's employer mentality of considering employee as bonded labour, not providing overtime compensation which draft the rules and terms fit favourable for them. If per hour minimum wage concept applied in India , people don't need to think of moonlighting, but government/politicians don't let that happen since funding for their political parties from corporate will cease.
In India it is made compulsary by all companies to work extra hours. It is expected to do so. Though it is not written, but one who does not put extra hours, will be fired. Moonlighting should be done.
IT service based companies are paying 3-4 lakhs CTC for juniors. How can these folks survive in cities with such low salary ??? Please rectify these kind of disparities first. Too much of exploitation in the name of giving opportunity.
The question also exists as to whether it is ethical to underpay and employee. Employers want to hold their employees to ethics. What about employers being ethical?
Fascinating that people in any sector of India are prevented from having second jobs. I feel sorry for the factory workers if they're underpaid and can't afford to live from a single salary. Moonlighting absolutely shouldn't be prevented, unless there's some form of conflict of interest.
In most cases, low wages explain moonlighting. There is hardly any law to protect the employee. The corrupt government allows employers to make a mockery of remuneration.
That's correct to say why not go for evening job in India. My college professor was actually taking tuitions till 10 pm. I followed the same clue, to pay my kids education in Delhi.
To learn n earn & live a better life + ensure your next generation does better that's necessary . A person has just limited number of years as a working adult
In IT companies there will be deadline usually. No matter what you will do u should complete the work within the deadline. After that anyone can do anything, i think its not offence. Company laptops usually cant be used to such type of workings bcz of policies applied on the laptops
I don’t even know why this is a problem? Foreign countries always had this it was never a problem. Under productive employee will always do so, if they have a second job or not.
Are the employers themselves sincere? In India is salary adjusted as per inflation as in US or Japan? Do companies not sacked people to safeguard their own future?
what makes you think USA adjust salary with inflation? they don't.. in India, govt employee get salary adjusted with inflation every 6 months, its called dearness allowance and in private sector raises are most times way higher than inflation except some sectors.
As an Engineer that started working recently like 2 weeks ago and with so less salary its heart breaking to know that even if you want to work you can't
Instead of policies for junior and mid level staff first they make policies for CEO, CTO etc who have multiple companies why don't they work for only one company, why don't they get same hike as their employees. Even conflict of interest shouldn't be an issue only data breach is valid reason and if you allow your employee to work he will never do any data breach, ow he or she may do. Also, most of the time developers work with dev environment not so very confidential data
As long as you don't work for the competitors, not disclose confidential information, if you let your current employer know, if the employment contract does not expressly prohibit there is nothing wrong with it.
Even working for competitors should be allowed. Why would I go and sell snacks if I'm good with programming skills and I know it will provide me best income. Obviously if I'm doing second job I'll do something in which I'm best
Only thing is we shouldn't breach or leak any confidential information. Anyway we don't work on daily basis with confidential information if we are allowed to work part time no one will do such thing
I do not know why it is debatable. Employees work 2 jobs because they cannot secure a roof over their head and put food on their table with only 1 job!
What about working for the same employer for twice the hours and demand double salary ?? This also means treating the same employee as 2 workslot instead of 1. So double the benefits , double the hike. Problem is 1 day leave would be essentially 2 day leave etc...
World economic crisis and high inflation have left people with limited income but high expenses, hence people will try to earn more in as many ways as possible, corporates and govts must understand this, empathize with the employees and encourage it as well.
When companies have right to work with multiple clients at the same time then why not employees have the right to work with multiple clients at the same time. Anyway Indian IT companies, specially Indian IT companies have been exploiting people for a very very long time it’s time we tell them who is the boss. Employees need to make sure that they find a second job outside and should work because renumeration in India is so so low that you don’t save anything at the end of the month. But property prices are almost at par with Western countries, specially in cities like Mumbai Delhi Bangalore et cetera. But salaries are still one third or one fourth of what US employees get so what should we do, How do we as employee survive and at least save something? And this problem exist at the bottom of the employee pyramid higher level employees like CTO and CXO band people are almost equal to US level. So if companies can come forward and resolve this issue than moonlighting will not happen but if they just want to preach about it is being unethical and all that shit nobody is going to listen. Frankly speaking Palki has got it wrong again, she’s basically speaking from the side of the employer not employee. This was her second attempt and she again got it wrong. Many IT companies like EClerx do not offer nightshift allowance or late shift allowance so they have been exploiting people for a very long time.
Well I really don't want to comment on Moonlighting but Indian law is vague when it comes to IT work force. This group of people is just ignored and few of them leave India for good.
I work as an engineer but i feel we humans can do multiple things and thats why i also started youtube channel although i dont have enough subscribers but i have the hope to grow and every single person must have the same hope.

In America a lot of people pick up extra hours to make the extra income to pay their bills. If a company does not want it's employees to take up extra hours elsewhere, then that company should pay their employees more. I know people who work 8 hours a day in their permanent job and drive Uber as part-time. There shouldn't be any laws against it. People do it for survival.

good analysis with perspective from both sides, except following catches : 1) Factories Act 1948 is for workers safety and hence was applied on factory workers wherein the physical overwork at multiple places can jeopardize their life. This act also regulates strict working hours and safety standards. Factory job is well timed - infact in large factories still there is a siren regulating their strict hours including lunch hours. In law the intent of the law if primary and wording secondary. Anyhow, the Factories Act is now subsumed in Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code 2020. An IT job is not normally physically precarious, and IT job has also been kept out of the purview of the Factories Act - which has been mainly due to the efforts of the IT employers like Infosys, Wipro, TCS, tech Mahindra, Satyam Computers, etc so that they can be kept out of the strict regulations promulgated by the Fcatories Act. Now, when they (employers) vie support from Factories Act to defend their stance against moonlighting its double standards and hypocricy. 2) 2) Clause in the contract restricting the employement to only one employer and Non-Compete Clause, each of them individually violate Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution and Section 27 of the Indian Contract Act, and are void ab-initio. What it means is that these clauses even if present in the contract are held to be non-existent, so cannot be breached at all since they are held not to exist at first place. Law strictly prohibits contracting out of law - section 24 of the Indian Contract Act. Hence, in each litigation between employer and employee they have been stuck down by the High Courts (HCs) and the Supreme Court (SC) of India. Note that the judgement of the SC forms teh common law in the country. In the “context of this debate”, the exception which SC has allowed is for high positions, where Non-Compete has been upheld but with restrictions liek duration of not more than 1-2 years, limit to very niche industry segment and so on. Moreover, during this period, the employer enforcing non-compete has to pay full-scale salary to the employee on whom it is being enforced. 3) Non-Solicitation clause has however been universally upheld to protect employer. 4) Now the ethical part: if the work assignment doesn't result in Conflict of Interest (CoI), does not hamper the productivity of the employee (in working hours - not w.r.t to "expected" 12-18 hours a day 6-7 days a week by the managers), and employee complies with Non-Disclosure (NDA) and Non-Solicitation (NSA), it is ethical. If employee's productivity comes down in routine work hours then its unethical, and for other CoI-NDA-NSA violation its illegal and employer can sue the employee to recover damages. Much of the debate resulted from ignorance of the law worsened by the arrogance, corruption and incompetence of the HR and Senior Mangers like Mr. Rishad Premji.

A company promoting moonlighting will be considered a better place to work. Can attract better potential employees. After all it's about being efficient and productive at the same time.
So it is legal to make employees work for two people in a single salary, but illegal for one person to work two jobs? That sounds fair!

This act also regulates strict working hours and safety standards. Factory job is well timed - infact in large factories still there is a siren regulating their strict hours including lunch hours. In law the intent of the law if primary and wording secondary. Anyhow, the Factories Act is now subsumed in Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code 2020.
An IT job is not normally physically precarious, and IT job has also been kept out of the purview of the Factories Act - which has been mainly due to the efforts of the IT employers like Infosys, Wipro, TCS, tech Mahindra, Satyam Computers, etc so that they can be kept out of the strict regulations promulgated by the Fcatories Act.
Now, when they (employers) vie support from Factories Act to defend their stance against moonlighting its double standards and hypocricy.
2) 2) Clause in the contract restricting the employement to only one employer and Non-Compete Clause, each of them individually violate Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution and Section 27 of the Indian Contract Act, and are void ab-initio. What it means is that these clauses even if present in the contract are held to be non-existent, so cannot be breached at all since they are held not to exist at first place. Law strictly prohibits contracting out of law - section 24 of the Indian Contract Act.
Hence, in each litigation between employer and employee they have been stuck down by the High Courts (HCs) and the Supreme Court (SC) of India. Note that the judgement of the SC forms teh common law in the country. In the “context of this debate”, the exception which SC has allowed is for high positions, where Non-Compete has been upheld but with restrictions liek duration of not more than 1-2 years, limit to very niche industry segment and so on. Moreover, during this period, the employer enforcing non-compete has to pay full-scale salary to the employee on whom it is being enforced.
3) Non-Solicitation clause has however been universally upheld to protect employer.
4) Now the ethical part: if the work assignment doesn't result in Conflict of Interest (CoI), does not hamper the productivity of the employee (in working hours - not w.r.t to "expected" 12-18 hours a day 6-7 days a week by the managers), and employee complies with Non-Disclosure (NDA) and Non-Solicitation (NSA), it is ethical. If employee's productivity comes down in routine work hours then its unethical, and for other CoI-NDA-NSA violation its illegal and employer can sue the employee to recover damages.
Much of the debate resulted from ignorance of the law worsened by the arrogance, corruption and incompetence of the HR and Senior Mangers like Mr. Rishad Premji.
So many MP's continue to work on other opportunities. For Ex. Gautam Gambhir is currently working as commentator in the Asia Cup and is also the coach for IPL team Lucknow super giants. There are many more besides him.
I'd rather live in a cardboard box then waste my entire life working two jobs. 40 hours/week is already wasting too much of my life. The standard should be 25-30hrs max for everyone.
Here civil engineer have to start with 10k salary as most of the company ask for experience. Even with experience salary is not good.
Obviously he will do multiple jobs
Stagflation has led to moonlighting!!
Kind of information we need from news channels 🙏
how can it be "illegal"
to have greater ambitions.
I did 2 jobs at the same time. Domestic and International I was making 28k a month.
I did that too :)
What we do during office hours is a company's job. What I do after that is my job.
Thanks for uploading useful information Pulki
I like how Palkhi says ''she''!
The fact this is a question shows India still has some distance to come
Our MPs and Politicians are working in different segments and no one bats an eye
Sometimes different parties too😂
Once we done with the 8 hrs of work in company, after we can do whatever we want to do with our time, no-one here have a rights to rise a questions about it. 💯
Indian law doesn’t say anything regarding moonlighting because there is nothing such law present
Moonlighting should be legal....
Because these are uncertain times...and economy nowadays is very uncertain.....hence...we must be prepared....
some people are moonlighting, and many people running jobless. contrasts, contrasts.
very very well explained
The C-Suite can hold board positions in many companies but an employee can't?
What's wrong working hard for extra money and learning new skills.
I left India 2 decades ago and last I checked pretty much all doctors working in hospitals had after hours clinics at their homes.
How its even possible whos giving the job without the current companies experience letter?
Why do employers even have a say in what people do after work hours.
it is as similar as saying a maid not to work in other homes. 🤦
If you are abel to do 10 jobs then do it but don’t ditch your primary job
@2:06 Fever 🤒
Just a joke, Palki's Zomato Swiggy reference is the perfect plotline for a corporate Espionage thriller.
A company promoting moonlighting will be considered a better place to work. Can attract better potential employees. After all it's about being efficient and productive at the same time.
