KEY POLICIES

At‑Will Employment

Employment with the Company is on an at‑will basis. Either the employee or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, and with or without prior notice, except where prohibited by law or where a separate written agreement signed by the Company provides otherwise. No supervisor or representative of the Company other than the Chief Executive Officer has authority to enter into an agreement for employment for any specified period or to make any agreement contrary to this policy.

Equal Employment Opportunity

The Company provides equal employment opportunity to all employees and applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics. Employment decisions are based on business needs, job requirements and individual qualifications.

Anti‑Harassment and Complaint Procedure

The Company prohibits unlawful harassment, including sexual harassment. Employees must promptly report any conduct they believe violates this policy to their manager or Human Resources. The Company will investigate complaints in a timely, thorough and confidential manner to the extent practicable. Retaliation against anyone who makes a good‑faith complaint or participates in an investigation is strictly prohibited.

Confidentiality and Proprietary Information

Employees may have access to confidential or proprietary business information. Employees must protect such information and not disclose it to any third party without prior written authorization. Upon termination of employment, employees must return all Company property and confidential materials.

Work Hours, Attendance and Timekeeping

Employees are expected to adhere to assigned schedules, accurately record time worked, and obtain supervisory approval for overtime in advance. Excessive absenteeism or tardiness may result in corrective action up to and including termination.

Leave, Paid Time Off and Accommodations

Leave entitlements and paid time off are administered in accordance with Company policy. Employees seeking leave for medical or other protected reasons should submit requests to Human Resources and provide required documentation. The Company will consider reasonable accommodations for qualified employees with disabilities.

Disciplinary Action and Termination

The Company uses progressive discipline when appropriate. Serious misconduct may result in immediate termination. Disciplinary decisions are made in light of the facts and circumstances of each case, and the Company reserves discretion in imposing discipline.

Drug and Alcohol Policy

The Company maintains a drug‑free workplace. The Company may require drug and alcohol testing where job safety or other business considerations justify testing. Refusal to submit to testing when lawfully required, or a confirmed positive result, may result in disciplinary action.

Use of Company Systems and Social Media

Company systems and electronic communications are provided for business use. Personal use should be limited and must not interfere with job duties. Employees must not post confidential information or make statements that could harm the Company's reputation.

Safety and Workplace Violence

The Company is committed to a safe workplace. Threats, acts of violence, or possession of weapons are prohibited. Employees must report safety concerns immediately. The Company will take appropriate action to ensure workplace safety.
