Can a nonexempt employee work for another department in a similar or different capacity?
Caution must be exercised in allowing nonexempt employees principally assigned to one organizational unit to perform duties or services for another unit. Employees wishing to engage in additional employment must receive approval from their supervisor prior to engaging in or committing to perform work for another department. Regardless of where a nonexempt employee actually works, Tulane is considered one employer. As such, all work performed by a nonexempt employee in any capacity and for any combination of departments must be accurately tracked to ensure that an employee receives overtime pay, if appropriate.
