Disciplinary Program Section 08

February 2006
Page 1 of 2

We consider violations of safety policy and procedures as serious. A great deal of time and money is
spent training employees on the safe and proper way of performing their jobs. When those procedures
are violated, progressive documentation of disciplinary actions resulting from those violations (using
the attached form entitled Employee Warning Notice) shall be completed.

The supervisor of the employee being warned shall complete this form and submit for review,
comment and approval to the Operations Manager and General Manager. When this has been
accomplished, a copy shall be placed in the employees personnel file. The following shall be used as
guidelines when completing this form. Under certain situations, however, serious violations may
require different or more severe actions, even for first violations. (Example: Drinking/substance
abuse on the job).

Physical inspections by management that indicate violations showing overall lack of commitment to
the company safety program by supervisors shall also be grounds for disciplinary actions.

A. First Warning:

Will be grounds for either an oral or written reprimand. May be grounds for suspension
or termination. If the Operations Manager or the General Manager, does not feel that actions
taken by the supervisor are in the best interest of the company, documentation must include
what actions were taken and justification for non-agreement with the supervisors actions.

B. Second Warning:

Will be grounds for a written reprimand or suspension without pay. May be grounds for
termination. If the Operations Manager or the General Manager, does not feel that actions
taken by the supervisor are in the best interest of the company, documentation must include
what actions were taken and justification for non-agreement with the supervisors actions.

C. Third Warning:

Will be grounds for suspension without pay or termination. If the Operations Manager or
the General Manager, does not feel that actions taken by the supervisor are in the best interest
of the company, documentation must include what actions were taken and justification for non-
agreement with the supervisors actions.

EMPLOYEES TERMINATED FOR SAFETY VIOLATIONS


Any employee terminated for a safety violation will not be eligible for re-hire for a minimum of 180
days from the date of violation. If, after 180 days, a former employee is rehired, that employee will
undergo additional training, as necessary, for the previous safety violation.

EMPLOYEES TERMINATED FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE VIOLATIONS


Any employee terminated for a substance abuse violation will not be eligible for re-hire for a minimum
of 1 year from date of positive test result. The same applies for any pre-employment tests.
