Standards Of Conduct

Each employee has an obligation to observe and follow the company's policies and to maintain proper standards of conduct at all times. If an individual's behavior interferes with the orderly and efficient operation of a department, corrective disciplinary measures will be taken.

Disciplinary action may include a verbal warning, written warning, suspension without pay and discharge. The appropriate disciplinary action imposed will be determined by the company. The company does not guarantee that one form of action will necessarily precede another.

The following may result in disciplinary action, up to and including discharge: violation of the company's policies or safety rules, insubordination, poor attendance, possession, use or sale of alcohol or controlled substances on work premises or during working hours, unauthorized possession, use or sale of weapons, firearms or explosives on work premises, poor performance, theft or dishonesty, physical harassment, sexual harassment or disrespect toward fellow employees, visitors or other members of the public. These examples are not all inclusive. We emphasize that discharge decisions will be based on an assessment of all relevant factors.
