An employee has come to you with a request to take on a part-time job. The employee would be working for Price Waterhouse as a contract employee during tax season. The employee has assured you that she will not work more than 20 hours a week, primarily on weekends. Price-Waterhouse is one of the five accounting firms that has put a bid in to do the auditing for G-BioSport.
Possible Solutions:
Allow the accountant to work as long as a confidentiality agreement is signed.
Allow the accountant to work as long as the company does not choose PW for the audit work.
Do not allow the accountant to work for PW or any other accounting auditing company but do allow other part-time work.
Do not change the policy and allow the employee to work with no strings attached.
