Taylor Roofing Employee Manual

Purpose of this Manual

The success of any service company is based on several factors. The most important is service to our customers. Taylor Roofing, Inc (collectively “Taylor Roofing” or the “Company”) is proud of its record of service. We have put together a winning combination of people-oriented employees, first class quality products and a management philosophy that has made us a benchmark for others in our field.

This Manual will explain our rules and work standards in some detail and serve as a guide as an employee of Taylor Roofing, Inc. We intend this Manual to offer two-way communications: what you can expect from us, and what we expect from you.

There are several things that are important to keep in mind about this manual.

First: it contains only general information and guidelines governing the conduct of the Company’s business and its employees. Except for the extent provided for in any applicable other written contract with Taylor Roofing, neither this manual or any other Company document confers any contractual right, either express or implied, to remain in the Company’s employ. Nor does this guarantee any fixed terms or conditions of your employment. This manual does not alter the ‘employee at will’ relationship in any way. Your employment is not for any specific time and may be terminated at will, with or without cause and without prior notice by the Company, or you may resign for any reason at any time. No Supervisor or other representative of the Company (except the Owner) has the authority to enter into any agreement for employment for any specified period of time, or to make any agreement contrary to the above.

Second: the procedures, practices, policies and benefits described may be modified or

discontinued from time to time and the content of this Manual constitutes only a summary of employee benefits, personnel guidelines and guidelines, and employment regulations in effect at the time of publication. It is your responsibility to learn the rules and standards and abide by them. Take adequate time to study and review the manual. We strongly encourage you to ask questions. If you have any question, ask your supervisor to clarify it for you. We realize that no one has all the answers and we are here to help you. We also recognize that being able to communicate freely with your supervisor or any Company management personnel will allow us to work in harmony and be a productive work force.. As an employee of the Company you must abide by the guidelines stated in this Manual, and any new or revised guidelines issued by Taylor Roofing, Inc. We will try to inform you of any changes as they occur.

. You have the right to terminate your employment at any time, with or without cause or notice, and the Company has the same right. Your status as an “at-will” employee may not be changed except in writing, signed by the President/Owner of Taylor Roofing, Inc. Employment "at-will" is the sole and entire agreement between you and the Company concerning the duration of your employment and the circumstances under which your employment may be terminated.

Company Guidelines

At Will Employment

Your employment with Taylor Roofing, Inc. is "at-will", which means that your employment may be terminated at any time, for any reason or for no reason at all by you or the Company. Taylor Roofing, Inc. also has the sole discretion to change your compensation, the benefits offered to you, the terms and conditions of your employment, and any and all provisions of this Manual, except for your employment "at-will" status.

Equal Employment Opportunity

It is the policy of Taylor Roofing, Inc. to provide equal opportunity in employment to all employees and applicants for employment. No person shall be discriminated against in employment because of race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, national origin, disability or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal or state law. The policy applies to all the terms and conditions of employment including, but not limited to recruitment, hiring, compensation, training, promotion, transfer, demotion, downgrading, layoff and termination.

Any employee who believes the Company’s equal opportunity policy has been violated is urged to report the situation to their immediate supervisor or the owner without delay. All complaints will be investigated promptly and thoroughly. Complaints will be kept confidential to the extent possible, consistent with the Company’s need to conduct a thorough investigation. No employee will be subjected to any form of retaliation for filing a good faith complaint under the policy or assisting in the investigation on any complaint.

Violation of this policy will result in immediate and appropriate discipline.

Immigration Law and Compliance

Taylor Roofing, Inc. requires every new employee to complete new hire paperwork as well as any and all state/federal government issued forms including the Federal I-9 Form. In addition to completing the I-9 form, you must provide the supporting documents that verify your eligibility to be employed. Completion of the new hire paperwork is your first assignment and should be turned in to your Supervisor prior to performing any other duties.

Attendance:

Each of our employees plays an important role in getting the day’s work done. Therefore, each employee is expected to be at their work area on time each day and to remain there throughout their scheduled hours. Absenteeism or tardiness, even for good reason, is disruptive to our operations and interferes with our ability to satisfy our customer’s needs

All employees are expected to adhere to the work schedule assigned to them.

If you are unable to begin work at the standard starting time of 7:00AM, you are to contact your Immediate Supervisor at least 30 minutes before the starting time to report your absence or reason for being late.

Do NOT leave a message with the answering service or with another employee. Contact the Immediate Supervisor directly. If the Immediate Supervisor does not answer, leave a voicemail message with a phone number you can be contacted at.

Excused absence or excused lateness will only be considered if the following applies:

1.) You have notified the Immediate Supervisor before your starting time of the day you’ll be late or missing work with the reason. It is up to the Owner to deem this a legitimate reason for being absent or late.
