Outside Employment Disclosure
While employees’ outside employment activities are often beneficial to both the employees and the CSU, outside employment must not interfere with an employee's ability to meet their CSU responsibilities or prevent them from acting in the best interest of the CSU.
State law (Title 5 California Code of Regulations § 42740) and CSU policy (HR 2016-06) require all Management Personnel Plan (MPP) employees, including part-time, full-time and rehired annuitants, to disclose any compensated outside employment activities:
- At the time of their MPP appointment;
- Annually;
- Within 30 days of accepting outside employment; and
- Within 10 days upon request by their HEERA manager
The information provided in the disclosure is then reviewed by the employee's HEERA manager to determine whether the job duties or the time commitment of the outside employment would conflict with the employee’s CPP position. If so, the employee and their HEERA manager must come to an agreement on how the employee shall reduce or eliminate that conflict. If there is a disagreement between the employee and their HEERA manager, an appeal committee would make the final decision.
Annually, all CSU campuses submit an outside employment report to the Chancellor's Office. The Chancellor's Office posts the outside employment activities of all vice presidents and presidents on a public website.
There are two different Outside Employment Disclosure forms. One is for Senior Management (SM), which includes the vice presidents and President. The second form is for other Management Personnel Plan employees (MPPs).
To understand the legal requirements, what activities to report and how to complete the form, please consult the appropriate set of instructions below.
You will receive the Outside Employment Disclosure form applicable to your position to complete when you first start your MPP/SM appointment and annually in June.
If you need to complete the form because you have taken on outside employment or have been requested by your HEERA manager, then please contact hrpolicy@cpp.edu to obtain the form.
Annually in June, the Outside Employment Disclosure is filed via Adobe Sign. To help employees and HEERA managers navigate through the Adobe Sign process, please review the applicable guide below.
