It is important to remember that as a government employee, you must be mindful of the ethical boundaries governing your behavior. The best way to use your position for personal gain without attracting attention is to ensure that any personal pursuits or activities are consistent with the policies and procedures set by the government, and are not deemed to be in violation of any trust or fiduciary responsibilities you may have. Additionally, try to make sure that any activity falls within the scope of work activities related to your job role, so as not to attract too much attention. As a general rule of thumb; if it looks like you are doing something suspicious or out of the ordinary then it is best practice to exercise caution and inquire further before beginning said activity.

It is important to be mindful of your actions as a government employee and avoid engaging in activities that may even remotely appear to be for personal gain. However, there are some legal methods through which a government employee can leverage their position for personal gain. Firstly, it is legal to use resources available through your position, such as data or reports, in order to develop or improve upon existing skills. Secondly, it is also perfectly legal to generate income from teaching part-time or providing freelance services related to your expertise.
Finally, while it may be tempting, it is strongly advised that you do not take any unlawful steps such as downloading documents containing confidential information from workplace computers; this carries great risk and can often land you in hot water with severe consequences.
