Farage Printing Industries wishes to create a work environment that promotes job satisfaction, respect, responsibility, and value for all of our employees, clients, customers and other stakeholders. Every employee at Farage Printing Industries has a shared responsibility toward improving the quality of the work environment. By agreeing to work at Farage Printing Industries you have agreed to follow the company’s rules and to refrain from conduct which is detrimental to our goals. The prohibited conduct that is listed below is not an inclusive list, as the company cannot, with foresight, determine what inappropriate conduct under every circumstance is. Moreover, the company does not limit its right to discipline or discharge employees to the prohibited conduct listed below. Remember that, while we value our employees, the company maintains the right to terminate its employees at any time and for any reason, with or without notice.

Violation of the prohibited conduct set forth below, or any other conduct deemed inappropriate by management, may subject you to disciplinary action, including oral or written warnings, suspension without pay, transfer or possible termination. If you have any questions about your personal conduct or that of any fellow employee, immediately consult your supervisor for clarification.

The following list contains examples of conduct considered improper which may result in discipline, including termination. Again, note this is not a complete list and understand that other behaviors may also result in discipline.

DISCIPLINARY ACTION

As indicated earlier, violation of company policies or procedures may result in disciplinary action, including but not limited to, demotion, transfer, suspension with or without pay, or termination. The company encourages a system of progressive discipline depending on the type of prohibited conduct. The company is not required to engage in progressive discipline and may discipline or terminate an employee where he or she violates the rules of conduct, or where the quality or value of their work fails to meet expectations. Again, our attempt at progressive discipline does not imply a contract with you or that your employment is anything other than on an “at will” basis. This means that both the company and the employee may terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any reason, or no reason at all.

As part of our progressive discipline system, and based on the nature of the employee violation, management will attempt to provide the employee first with a verbal warning, then one or more written warnings, and if the conduct is not sufficiently altered, eventual demotion, transfer, forced leave or termination. Your supervisor will make very effort possible to allow you to respond to any disciplinary action taken. Understand that the company is not obligated to follow any disciplinary or grievance procedure and that you may be disciplined or terminated without going through any procedure.
