Double Triple Dipping / Subjects

Has any other investigators seen cases (public trust and/or national security positions) with Subjects that have consulting business (self-employed) as contractors while being employed as federal employees working for a government entity (SSA,TSA,VA etc.) AND having additional employment as a paid W2 employee for a federal contracting company? All three entities performing work for the same government entity/branch. Essentially double and triple dipping.

When Subject is asked about concurrent activities; how do they handle two or three full or part time jobs? Do they report this other employment or self employment to the other businesses they work for let alone the US government.

The last two months I have been seeing this trend on almost all my cases with foreign flags. The last two cases I’ve worked on - it’s evident that both Subjects are gettting double paid.

Anyone else seeing this situation ? :face_with_raised_eyebrow::face_with_monocle: It’s very concerning.

As long as people get any required permissions to do this it should be fine.

Double/triple dipping? Why not. Now, Double-Triple CHARGING… that’s an entirely different matter. Two or three full-time jobs could be rather difficult to explain

It seems anything goes in these trying time. Definitely a lot of emboldened behavior is creeping out.

As FSO we have legal counsel who sits with HR who will approach our full time employees with multiple SMO relationships and sometimes also classified access to make sure there’s no conflict of interest and appropriate permission things are signed to allow this. We’ve had a handful working 2-3 full time jobs quit with whichever one (sometimes multiple/all) had a problem with them double or triple - yes - CHARGING, it’s just not feasible, people gotta sleep at some point.

What an employee does on his own time is his own business as long as there is no conflict of interest.
