Understand How Your Team Views Side Work Policies

As the gig economy grows and employees increasingly pursue side hustles, having clear moonlighting and outside work policies is essential. This Employee Gig Work & Side Hustle Policy Survey helps HR teams, people operations managers, and business leaders gather critical feedback on how well employees understand current policies around side work, conflict of interest rules, and approval processes.

Why This Survey Matters

Nearly 40% of workers now engage in some form of gig work or side hustle, making policy clarity more important than ever. This template helps you measure employee understanding of:

• Moonlighting rules and what activities require disclosure or approval
• Conflict of interest concerns and how employees navigate potential conflicts
• Approval process effectiveness and whether current systems are clear and accessible
• Policy awareness gaps that may need better communication or training
