WHEN CAN YOU FIRE FOR OFF-DUTY CONDUCT?
通过多个案例（包括一名巴士司机同时是三K党头目被解雇的仲裁案）分析法院和仲裁员如何判定雇主能否因员工的非工作行为影响工作或组织形象而解雇员工。
Although public figures run the greatest risk of career setbacks arising from their off-stage conduct, people in most occupations may jeopardize their job security if their off-duty activity impairs their acceptability at work or tarnishes their organization's image. This article describes several cases and explains the decisions of the courts and the arbitrators. One of the cases cited is the case of a Baltimore bus operator who, it developed, was also the acting grand dragon of the Maryland chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. His dual capacity became news, whereupon his fellow bus operators threatened a wildcat strike, and the possibility of a public boycott of the whole bus network arose. The Baltimore Transit Company discharged the grand dragon on the grounds that there was a clear and immediate danger of violence. An arbitrator sided with the company.
