§ 125.12. Staff.

 (a)  The Commission may appoint such staff as it may deem necessary.

 (b)  Each applicant for a position on the Commission staff must, as a condition of employment, successfully pass a personal background investigation to the satisfaction of the Commission prior to being appointed as a staff member. The information received by the Commission as a result of a background investigation will be maintained by the Executive Director and will not be open to inspection by persons other than members of the Commission and its staff.

 (c)  Unless otherwise specifically approved by the Commission, no professional or investigative employe of the Commission shall engage in any other business, employment, profession, trade, business venture, enterprise, or occupation; undertake gainful work or employment; or render gainful services other than for the Commission. All administrative and clerical employes shall disclose in writing to the Executive Director all gainful occupation or employment for any person or entity other than the Commission. The Executive Director will have the authority to prohibit the employment by administrative or clerical employes when such employment is determined to interfere, conflict with, or effect the functions of the subject employe with relation to his duties to the Commission. Upon a determination that such employment is not permissible, the Executive Director will give written notice of such determination to the subject employe. Upon receipt of such notice, the employe shall immediately terminate the subject employment. An employe’s failure to comply with the provisions of this subsection shall be grounds for immediate termination of employment with the Commission.

 (d)  As of the date of employment with the Commission and on or before March 15 of each following year, each staff member of the Commission shall file with the Executive Director a sworn statement of financial interests. The financial interests of a spouse or child under 18 years of age of an employe, shall be deemed a financial interest of an employe. The financial statement shall contain the information detailed in §  125.13 (relating to forms).

 (e)  The financial statements of the employes will be maintained by the Executive Director at the headquarters of the Commission and will not be open to inspection by persons other than members of the Commission, the Executive Director, or such other persons designated by the Commission or the Executive Director.

 (f)  For the purposes of personal background questionnaires for employment, updates thereof, and the annual financial disclosure statements, each applicant and employe of the Commission shall execute a waiver of any and all rights to privacy for the purposes of submitting the required information and any further investigation by the Commission regarding the completeness or accuracy of the information submitted. The waiver shall remain in effect for the duration of the individual’s employment with the Commission.
