Purpose of the Policy

WTSC makes available to its employees an emergency loan program. The purpose of this program is to
provide loans to employees who have an immediate need for funds as the result of an emergency and
have no other source of money available within the time necessary to act, or who have a dire personal
financial hardship and cannot obtain a loan from a credit union or comparable lending institution. The
program is not intended to compete with local credit unions or other lending institutions; it is intended
to fill the needs of company employees that are not being met by those sources.
This policy describes office-specific provisions and operational practices related to implementing the
Staff Emergency Loan Fund policy at WTSC. It combines pertinent portions of related WTSC policies
with office-specific provisions. Accordingly, this policy should not be used as a comprehensive
reference to the related WTSC policy. In cases where a comprehensive reference is needed, the WTSC
policy should be consulted. Where conflicts exist between this policy and WTSC policies, WTSC
policies shall take precedence.

Please refer to Section III for the definitions of important terms used in this policy.

Detailed Policy Statement

Eligibility

In certain circumstances the company provides financial loans to its employees. The amount and
conditions under which loans are provided may be varied from time to time, added to or even
withdrawn.

This policy applies to all permanent employees not in a probationary period and also not under notice of
dismissal. Temporary employees are not eligible for loans.

Loans must be used for their stated purpose. Failure to do so constitutes fraud and is regarded as a
serious matter. This will lead to disciplinary action being taken which could result in dismissal.

Employees should carefully consider whether they are able to meet the loan repayments before applying
for a loan under this scheme.

All applications should be completed and authorised in line with the procedure and forwarded to the
directorate HR section for processing. Loans must be processed through the Accounts Payable System
and paid directly to the provider. Payments must not be credited directly to the employee through the
payroll system.

Directorate HR sections are responsible for obtaining proof of purchase of the items concerned. Should
the employee's employment be terminated for whatever reason, then the balance of the loan must be
repaid to the company before the last day of service in accordance with the loan agreement.
