Rule 120-2-4-.05. Unacceptable Employment
Off-duty police employment which is not acceptable to the Office of Commissioner of Insurance and Safety Fire includes, but is not limited to:
- (a) Employment involving wrecker companies, bail bonding companies, private investigation services, security company, paralegal services, pawn brokers, nightclubs, bars, adult entertainment establishments, employment in which the primary source of revenue is the sale of alcoholic beverages, precious metal dealers, any licensed agent, subagent, or person licensed through the Department of Insurance generally, employers known to have a lawsuit or administrative hearing pending involving the State of Georgia, and any employment that would require a sworn member to testify in court in opposition to another law enforcement agency. Approval may be granted on an individual basis when the sale and consumption of alcohol beverages is incidental to the primary function or purpose of the enterprise such as sports facilities and civic centers. The Commissioner may make reasonable inquiries of the member to ensure that the continued outside employment does not constitute a conflict of interest.
- (b) Any other off-duty police employment determined by the Commissioner, in his or her discretion, to be inconsistent, incompatible, in conflict with or that would bring discredit upon the Commissioner.
