If you are employed by an H-1B quota exempt employer under H-1B status, the USCIS has interpreted the regulations to permit you to obtain CONCURRENT employment, e.g., a part time position, with a non-quota exempt H-1B employer, provided that you maintain your employment with the original H-1B exempt employer.
For example, suppose a doctor is employed by an exempt hospital as an Emergency Room Medical Doctor under H-1B status, and wishes to moonlight for for-profit medical clinic. As long as the doctor maintains his employment and H-1B status with the exempt hospital, he or she would also be quota exempt for H-1B purposes in an H-1B petition filed by the for-profit medical clinic for concurrent employment.
