Conditions of Employment 
|
|
The quality of a work environment is determined by many factors. Here are some
facts about employment with Freedom Automotive which might help you make the
decision, should you be offered employment with our company. Please consider
each of these items carefully before applying for employment with us.
|
-
Your appearance is important. Therefore, male employees are not allowed to wear
earrings while at work, and female employees are limited to a maximum 3
earrings per ear. No other body piercing may be visible while at work.
Employees in some job positions may be required to keep tattoos covered.
Haircuts must be conservative, as must an employee's attire.
-
Some job positions require uniforms. Uniforms are furnished by the company but
must be maintained by the employee. If the uniforms are furnished, they must be
worn without exception.
-
Because we run a lean staff, our employees must be available to work their
shifts. Employees who miss an excessive amount of hours or who are habitually
late or who frequently need to leave early are subject to disciplinary action,
up to and including termination.
-
Ongoing training is important to our organization, so we expect employees to
approach training cheerfully. Failure to maintain certification and other
required training is considered a serious infraction.
-
Smoking and use of other tobacco products is severely restricted. Smoking in
customer or company vehicles is strictly prohibited. Employees may not smoke
around building entrances and exits, or inside any part of the building.
-
Drug screens are given randomly and anytime an employee sustains an injury at
work or damages company or customer property. Failure to take the screen or a
positive drug screen result is grounds for immediate termination.
-
Criminal history checks are conducted on all employees at the time of hire.
Previous convictions not noted on the employment application and discussed at
the time of application are grounds for dismissal, as are any convictions of a
nature to make the employee a risk to our business, personnel or customers.

to a physical examination, a drug test, and/or an alcohol test, to the extent

I hereby fully waive any rights or claims I have or may have against my former

claims or damages that may directly or indirectly result from the use,
disclosure, or release of any such information by any person or party, whether
such information is favorable or unfavorable to me. I understand that nothing

intended to create an employment contract between Freedom Automotive and myself

regarding employment have been made to me, and I understand that no such
promise or guarantee is binding upon Freedom Automotive unless made in writing.
If an employment relationship is established, I understand that I have the

UNIFORMS
Freedom Automotive provides uniforms for those employees who are required to
wear uniforms. Uniforms fall into two categories.
Shop uniforms are rented from a contract service and must be returned for
cleaning in a timely manner. Uniforms that are damaged or lost while in your
care will be charged against your pay. Should you leave employ, uniforms must
be returned to the dealership.
Logo uniforms and gear (i.e.: coats, boots, rainwear) worn by customer service
personnel are purchased by the dealership and issued to company members. The
care and cleaning of these uniforms will be your responsibility. Uniforms,
which are damaged or lost while in your care, will be charged against your pay.
NAME BADGES
Any employee not in a uniform with his or her name embroidered on it will be
required to wear a name badge while at the dealership. The dealership issues
two name badges, if lost, replacement badges will be charged at five dollars
each.
I understand Freedom Automotive has a uniform and name badge policy.
Depending upon the position for which I have applied, I understand I will be
required to wear a uniform, a name badge or both.
