Approved Process for Use of Zoom and Teams Meeting Applications For Work
at Home

1. Optional Use of video. The meeting applications must be configured for the work at home employee to voluntarily consent to
be videoed in his or her home workspace based on the understanding that the employee has the option of attending the meeting
via only an audio connection. The video monitoring option must be configured with video in the off position so that the agent
must take an affirmative action to “opt-in” to being videoed. The following notification should be provided on the application to
explain the agent’s voluntary option to opt-in to being videoed:

You may voluntarily consent to participate in this Zoom or Microsoft Teams meeting via video to enhance your engagement
experience by activating the webcam on your computer. If you choose not to activate your webcam you can still attend the
meeting via the audio option for your meeting. If you consent to attend the meeting via the video option, Concentrix reserves the
right to notify you if Concentrix personnel attending the meeting observe anything in your work space that is inconsistent with
obligations under your work at home agreement and advising you what is necessary to fulfill the relevant obligations. If you
consent to video monitoring, Concentrix suggests that you remove any personal artifacts in your work space that you would not
want to have appear on video.

2. Video as a compliance coaching tool. Attendees at the meeting can inform the employee’s supervisor or People Solutions if
they observe anything in an agent’s work space that is inconsistent with Concentrix’s clean desk policy or other Concentrix
security and privacy policies. The agent’s supervisor or People Solutions can then inform the employee what actions are
necessary to comply with applicable Concentrix policy. The optional video feature of the meeting application is not a security
monitoring application and should not be used for purposes of a security audit or to initiate formal disciplinary action against an
employee.

3. Continued use of chat and meeting applications supporting Client in call center. To the extent possible, client programs should
continue to use chat or meeting applications the programs are already using in the call center for the same purposes the
applications are being used in order to avoid making changes to the work at home environment that clients are not aware of and
therefore may require client consent under the terms of an MSA or SOW.

4. Restrictions on processing Client confidential information and personal data. Client confidential information should not be
processed using meeting applications unless the applications are only accessed and used through a VPN in an encrypted
format. Personal data pertaining to a client’s customers located in Europe cannot be processed in a work at home environment.
Personal data pertaining to Concentrix employees located in Europe can only be used in a work at home environment If: a) the
meeting application has been approved through the Privacy and Security Governance Process for Europe; and b) People
Solutions has obtained any required works council consents for employees located in Europe who support the client.

5. Using Meeting Applications to Conduct Coaching Sessions with Work at home Employees. Please reach out to your manager
on your first day of training on how to access the document “Using Meeting Applications to Conduct Coaching Sessions with
Work at home Employees”, for guidance on how to access and use call recordings to conduct work at home coaching sessions in
compliance with this approved process.
