Moonlighting OR Doubble Jobbing

It is the practice wherein employees take up part-time jobs or business simultaneously with their original jobs. Employees resort to moonlighting in order to supplement their income.

Blue Moonlighting- When an employee needs a second job for additional income but the job is not available to him, the employee’s effort is called blue moonlighting.

Half Moonlighting- When an employee spends 50% of the available time and/or resources for the second job.

Full Moonlighting- When an employee spends most of his time and resources in establishing a business unit and keeps on staying on the job as a shock absorber in times of need.
