Moonlighting is a term used to refer to holding a second job outside of normal working hours. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, about 7 to 8 million Americans -- about 5+ percent of all workers -- work multiple jobs. Moonlighting while working for a private employer is governed by the policies of the employer. (USLegal)
Multiple job holding, also called moonlighting or secondary job holding, is an important topic for research and policy, both in Australia and in several other industrialised societies. Official labour force statistics in Australia suggest that the number of multiple job holders is significant, amounting to around 6 percent of all employed persons in 2007.

Contractual provisions limiting employees’ moonlighting activities are, however, permissible. (Wikipedia)
