    (Cochrane Database Syst Rev, 2010) Kiwanuka, S. N.; Kinengyere, A. A.; Nalwadda, C.; Ssengooba, F.; Okui, O.; Pariyo, G. W.
    Holding two or more jobs, also referred to as dual practice in the healthcare setting, has been documented as a common practice in both developed and developing countries (Eggleston 2006; Gonzélez 2004; Rickman 1999; Roenen 1997).The practice refers to the holding ofmore than one job by a health professional. It may encompass health professionals working within different aspects of health such as allopathic medicine combined with traditional medicine or combining health related activities such as clinical practice with research (Ferrinho 2004). In most low and middle income countries (LMICs), dual practice refers to health professionals engaged in both public and private (health or non-health) related work (Ferrinho 2004). Non-health related dual practice has been reported as well with the engagement of health workers earning additional income, for example, in agricultural or other economic activities (Assimwe 1997; Roenen 1997).

    (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2014) Rutebemberwa, E.; Kinengyere, A. A.; Ssengooba, F.; Pariyo, G. W.; Kiwanuka, S. N.
    on the proportion of the population served by public or private organizations in a particular setting, this movement may result in imbalances in the number of healthcare providers available relative to the population receiving care from that sector. However, both public and private organizations are needed as each sector has unique contributions to make to the eDective delivery of health services. Objectives To assess the eDects of financial incentives and movement restriction interventions to manage the movement of health workers between public and private organizations in low- and middle-income countries. Search methods We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (10 November 2012);EMBASE(7June 2011); LILACS (9 June 2011); MEDLINE (10 November 2012); CINAHL (13 August 2012); and the British Nursing Index (13 August 2012).

    Interventions to manage dual practice among health workers (Review)
    (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2011) Kiwanuka, S. N.; Rutebemberwa, E.; Nalwadda, C.; Okui, O.; Ssengooba, F.; Kinengyere, A. A.; Pariyo, G. W.
    Dual practice, whereby health workers hold two or more jobs, is a common phenomenon globally. In resource constrained low- and middle-income countries dual practice poses an ongoing threat to the efficiency, quality and equity of health services, especially in the public sector. Identifying effective interventions to manage dual practice is important. Objectives To assess the effects of regulations implemented to manage dual practice. Search methods Databases searched included: The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) 2011, Issue 4, part of The Cochrane Library. www.thecochranelibrary.com, including the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC) Group Specialised Register (searched 26 May 2011); MEDLINE In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations May 24, 2011 (searched 26 May 2011); MEDLINE, Ovid (1948 to May week 2 2011) (searched 26 May 2011); EMBASE, Ovid (1980 to 2011 week 20) (searched 26 May 2011); Science Citation Index and Social Sciences Citation Index, ISIWeb of Science (1975 to present) (searched 04 December 2009); LILACS (searched January 2010); and AIM (December 2009) (searched 18 December 2009). Selection criteria Randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, controlled before-and-after studies and interrupted-time-series studies. Dual practice was defined as holding more than one job. Studies for inclusion were those focusing on interventions to manage dual practice among health professionals employed in the public health sector.
