Employee Handbook

Introduction

At-Will Employment

*Required by Law

Your employment with Colman Engineering is on an "at-will" basis. This means your employment may be terminated at any time, with or without notice and with or without cause. Likewise, we respect your right to leave the Company at any time, with or without notice and with or without cause.


Nothing in this handbook or any other Company document should be understood as creating a contract, guaranteed or continued employment, a right to termination only "for cause," or any other guarantee of continued benefits or employment. Only the Owner and President has the authority to make promises or negotiate with regard to guaranteed or continued employment, and any such promises are only effective if placed in writing and signed by the Owner and President.

If a written contract between you and the Company is inconsistent with this handbook, the written contract is controlling.


Nothing in this handbook will be interpreted, applied, or enforced to interfere with, restrain, or coerce employees in the exercise of their rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act.

Ethics Code

Colman Engineering will conduct business honestly and ethically wherever operations are maintained. We strive to continually improve the quality of our services and operations and uphold our values.


Our managers and employees are expected to adhere to high standards of business and personal integrity as a representation of our business practices.


We expect that officers, directors, and employees will not knowingly misrepresent the Company and will not speak on behalf of the Company unless specifically authorized. The confidentiality of trade secrets, proprietary information, and similar confidential commercially sensitive information (e.g., financial or sales records/reports, marketing or business strategies/plans, product development, customer lists, patents, or trademarks) about the Company or operations, or that of our customers or partners, is to be treated with discretion and only disseminated on a need-to-know basis (see policies relating to privacy).


Violation of the Ethics Code can result in discipline, up to and including termination of employment. The degree of discipline imposed may be influenced by the existence of voluntary disclosure of any ethical violation and whether or not the violator cooperated in any subsequent investigation.

Revisions to Handbook

*Required by Law

This handbook is our attempt to keep you informed of the terms and conditions of your employment, including Colman Engineering policies and procedures. The handbook is not a contract. The Company reserves the right to revise, add, or delete from this handbook as we determine to be in our best interest, except the policy concerning at-will employment. When changes are made to the policies and guidelines in this handbook, we will communicate them promptly, either in a written supplement to the handbook or by posting (on company bulletin boards or websites).
