Abstract

The article discusses the peculiarity of second jobs, the importance of this institution in the system of labor law, as well as a comparative analysis of the norms governing second jobs. The institute of second jobs is not an innovation in the labor law of most countries. Along with the aforementioned workers, the recruitment of qualified specialists for second jobs under certain conditions has become widespread. Employment of this nature provides a unique opportunity for employees to improve their knowledge and skills in a particular area, as well as to have an additional source of income. This type of employment most often realized through combining jobs and second jobs. It is important to note that the regulator of second jobs is labor legislation, not civil law. This is primarily justified by the fact that with second jobs, it is necessary to conclude an employment contract; otherwise, this activity will not differ in any way from moonlighting under civil law contracts. Investigating the institute of second jobs, one should pay attention that it is useful mainly for workers of the above-mentioned spheres, but it also has positive points for employers too. In particular, managers of small businesses, as well as individual entrepreneurs, are in need of qualified and experienced specialists with whom it is financially beneficial to conclude a part-time employment contract. When researching this industry, the author analyzed the labor legislation of the CIS countries regarding the procedure for hiring second job employees, the documents required when applying for a job; payment of wages to them; working hours and rest hours of workers; conditions and procedure for terminating an employment contract with second job employees.
