This policy applies to recruitment and placement, promotion, training, transfer, retention, rate of pay and all other details and conditions of employment.

Breaks must not be used for late arrival or early departure and must be scheduled by the supervisor.

Professional Standards and Business Conduct

xxxx Technologies assumes that those associated with the institution will conduct themselves ethically and in accordance with what are generally accepted as "standard business practices." The increasingly complex relationships that have evolved between the xxxTechnologies and the numerous individuals, companies, and other groups, with which it deals, require that persons representing the xxx Technologies exercise a high degree of personal responsibility, integrity, and sound judgment.

Each employee should be familiar with the policies and procedural guidelines that cover the business activities that are his/her responsibility. This requirement will vary significantly depending on the employee's position.

It is hoped that by clearly setting forth the standards of behavior that the xxxx Technologies expects from its employees, any misunderstandings will be minimized, and any questionable situation can be brought to the attention of the responsible administrator and resolved.

Specific areas of focus include:

Any employee who has a question about these issues, or the policies governing them, that cannot be answered by his/her supervisor is encouraged to direct the question to Human Resources Department.

Employee Records and Information

The Department of Human Resources maintains a record of each employee's employment at xxx Technologies, including such information as education, experience, work performance, and progress. These records are carefully reviewed when an employee is being considered for promotion, salary increase, or transfer.

In accordance with xxxxx Technologies policy and applicable law, all employee records (including but not necessarily limited to application forms and other records pertaining to hire, promotion, demotion, transfer, work schedule, layoff, termination, rates of pay or other terms of compensation, performance appraisal, and selection for training) kept by the University will be preserved for at least three years from the date of the personnel action. This does not apply to records for positions known to be of a temporary or seasonal nature.

A personnel file may contain personal data as well as employment information. The Department of Human Resources regards this information as confidential and will release it only with the written permission of the employee.

When the Department of Human Resources receives a request for information from agencies, stores, banks, or other institutions, only non-confidential information such as date of employment and name of department will be released. Confidential information such as pay rate, past earnings, home address or phone number will not be released unless authorized in writing by the employee. Informing the Human Resources Department can also make changes in personal data.

An employee may schedule an appointment to review the contents of his/her file by calling the Records Coordinator in the Department of Human Resources.

Probationary Period

The first six months of employment for professional/administrative employees and the first four months for office/clerical and service employees are considered a probationary period. During this time, work performance is regularly monitored and assessed in order to determine whether or not continued employment status should be granted. A new employee who does not perform satisfactorily, according to xxxx Technologies standards, and/or does not conform to the terms and conditions of employment at xxxx Technologies, may be terminated after he/she has been given notice in writing

Promotions and Transfers

In filling positions at xxxx Technologies, preference is given whenever possible to qualified persons currently employed at the xxx Technologies, with factors such as ability, experience, potential for growth, and the affirmative action goals taken into consideration. Employees are encouraged to express interest in positions for which they believe they are qualified.

A promotion is a change from one position to another (either in the same office or in another office). A promotion normally, but not necessarily, is accompanied by an increase in salary.

A transfer is defined as a change from one position to another within the same classification level and salary range and normally does not include an increase in salary.

To be eligible for a promotion or transfer, a person must have completed at least the probationary period, and a year of prior service at the xxxx is strongly preferred.

Employment of Relatives

Employment of relatives is permitted, except in circumstances where an appointment would place related people in supervisory and subordinate roles within the same office or department, or in a situation where influence could be exerted, directly or indirectly, on future decisions concerning the status of employment, promotion, or compensation.

Absences and Lateness

Regular attendance is essential to the Company’s efficient operation and is a necessary condition of employment. When employees are absent, schedules and customer commitments fall behind, and other employees must assume added workloads.

Employees are expected to report to work as scheduled and on time. If it is impossible to report for work as scheduled, employees must call their manager before their starting time. If your manager is unavailable, a message should be left. If the absence is to continue beyond the first day, the employee must notify their manager on a daily basis unless otherwise arranged. Calling in is the responsibility of every employee who is absent.

Each supervisor is responsible for keeping accurate records of an employee's absences and of sick leave earned and taken. Dxxx Technologies reserves the right to request a medical examination or doctor's certificate during or following an illness.

The Company understands that when employees work during the week it is occasionally necessary to conduct personal business during office hours. However, employees should limit their personal use of the telephone and computer during office hours. Talk to your manager if you have any questions as to how much is too much time. Because the Company at its expense for business use provides telephone and e-mail systems, all messages sent by or received on those systems are company documents. The Company reserves the right to access and to disclose the messages that you send or receive on the voice mail or e-mail systems. Employees should also be aware that “deleted” messages from the computer screen may not actually be deleted fro the e-mail system.
