When you must tell us about secondary employment (Easy Read)

You must tell us when you take part in secondary employment.

You must ask us before you take part in secondary employment if your work with us is full-time.

Full-time is when you work at least 35 hours each week.

You must tell us about your secondary employment if your work with us is:

• part-time – when you work less than 35 hours each week

• casual – when your work hours change each week.

You must tell us about your secondary employment if it is with:

• emergency services – people who provide support during an emergency to keep other people safe.

• the Australian Defence Reserves – people who can support the defence force when they need it, like the army or navy.

You must ask us before you have secondary employment if an injury affects your work.

You must not show support for a political party while you work for DCJ.

You might be able to take time off work if you want to do this.

You must also tell us if your secondary employment changes.

You must do this within 3 business days of the changes.

All secondary employment forms end on 30 November each year.

This means you will need to fill out a new online form before 30 November each year.

It is a breach of the policy to break these rules. This means you will get in trouble.

A breach is when someone:

• doesn’t follow the rules
• does something they are not allowed to do.
