That is - Moonlighting

--- ##### Why this term comes into the market? --- Reason - Some days ago the Indian company Wipro fired 300 employers for the reason of moonlighting. It is not that the company did not warn those employees. The company had warned all those employees in September itself. But ignoring the warning, some employees kept moonlighting, due to which the company showed them the way out. The CEO of **Wipro** company Azim Premji said that this is a violation of the integrity of the company. Infosys and IBM are in favor of his statement. This is the reason why moonlighting is in the headlines. #### What is moonlighting? --- The term Moonlighting originated in America. Moonlighting is said to those employees who work for several companies simultaneously. Moonlighting was promoted more during the Corona period. When employees work for another company in the remaining time after working hours fixed by their company, it is called moonlighting. Some employees work on the weekend also so that they earn some more income. * **No Poaching Agreement** For this term, there is another important term called No Poaching Agreement This means when two or more company does not hire the employee of another company that's called Poaching. In India Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani sign an agreement on No Poaching. With this, if any employee works in any of these companies, then he cannot work in another company. This agreement is done for the reason that the employee should not do moonlighting. #### Favour But some organizations or company are support employers to moonlight bcos He says that this is very important along with time, due to which many possibilities will increase in the coming days. The startup company **swiggy** said that if employers tell them about their other work by doing work in swiggy with proper documentation then there is no objection or restriction from my end. #### Reason behind to control Moonlighting by Industries * It is having the biggest impact on IT industries because if an employee does any such action then there is a risk of data theft. That is why almost all IT industries are not in favor of it. * Infosys put up a poster of 'No two-timing -no moonlighting' and 'no double lives'. So that no employee will think about it. --- **This story is based on true event.** --- ![asa.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeFrPHTXNbNN8r74pwxBN32Nm3r4DfhX1DAjcqcqBcL9S/asa.png) A young 26-year ambitious person lives in the City of Banglore with a 25000 rupees (1407 SP) salary. The rent of living is a minimum of 8k -10k(451-565SP) in a low-grade hostel. Other charges like traveling food up to 10k(565). After all the guy has left only 5000(282 SP) which he pays for his education loan or some other work. So that's the reason behind this true story. The guy is very ambitious to work and do extra effort to earn some income. But this leads to #MOONLIGHTING. The guy would prefer to work on the rest of their free time and weekends and earn some extra income.
