I’m looking for advice. I work for an agency where additional employment has to be approved. For 6 years, 3 of my current coworkers have a side job working for a private company. Without giving too much away, think of like a police officer doing security part time. Well I was denied by our legal dept/HR for “potential ethics issues and conflict of interest”. I am livid. Since 2015, 7 people have been approved for this position. The last person was approved a year ago. Does anyone have advice on how to fight this?
