Chuck from Alabama it is my judgment that side jobs are simply a part of being a roofer, a subcontractor, or a contractor.
As a roofer, I have a right to roof my cousin’s house for money on a saturday, although I work for Mr. X through the week by the hour. As a sub, it’s the same. The lead must not come from the company I’m working for, however. As a roofer or a sub, it’s my duty to refer the company.
But if he got the lead somewhere else and I wasn’t going to get that lead anyway, then what difference should it make to me if he wants to make some additional money and get a nice boost to his bankroll? Maybe the baby requires a new pair of shoes? Or mom’s auto is damaged down!’ Syd in the Big Apple : ‘Consider the following eventuality : several workers are doing side roles on weekends and/or slow periods. Their employer has no knowledge of their activities, but lo and behold, 1-2 years on he’s served w/ a court action surpassing $1,000,000.
The employer hasn’t received compensation or took part in anyhow with these’side jobs’. clearly, the issue can be approach from many angles. How do you approach it in your business?
‘Green jobs’-jobs whose main purpose is to push environmental education, environmental protection, and energy conservation-are rising as one of the most promising job opportunities in the years ahead.
