FBC Lynchburg Employee Handbook (1)

B. DRESS CODE, PERSONAL HYGIENE AND OTHER GOOD MANUFACTURING PRINCIPLES, AND SAFETY These are rules, which if broken, normally result in a documented verbal warning at the first offense and further progressive disciplinary action if the individual’s conduct does not improve. Employees should be aware, however, that any offense will be considered on its own facts, including the record of the employee, in determining appropriate disciplinary action which may include discharge. The listed offenses are not all-inclusive. Any conduct which could jeopardize health or safety, interfere with or damage the business or reputation of the Company, or otherwise violate accepted standards of behavior will result in appropriate discipline; up to and including immediate discharge, with or without progressive steps. These steps are as follows:

Offense

Disciplinary Action

First

Documented Verbal Warning

Second

Written Warning

Non-Exempt Employees Only – One Day Decision Making Leave Without Pay (This allows employees time to decide whether or not to continue to work for the company and abide by the appropriate work standards). Exempt Employees Only – Subject to a disciplinary probation period with pay.

Third

Fourth

Subject to Discharge

This disciplinary policy is based on rolling twelve (12) month period. For example, if you have a documented verbal warning and it becomes twelve (12) months old, then it drops from your record in considering the next disciplinary step. 1. Littering on company property. 2. Failure to following the company’s COVID-19 masking and social distancing policy until such policy is removed. 3. Failing to use designated employee entrances when reporting to or leaving work. This includes re-entering the facility at any time. This includes unauthorized use of Emergency Exits. 4. Failure to clock out after being relieved or completing work without authorization. For example, clocking out for the day after changing clothes (you may go to the locker-room after you clock out to take care of any personal business).

5.

Incompetent, unsatisfactory or careless performance of duties.
