ID CARDS & ACCESS CONTROL

cards. When a new staff member joins NAA, the office manager asks AEIC for a card, which is sent from
Norway.

Building entry card: Each staff member is also issued a building entry card, which allows entry to the
three different entrances, our building, and our office.

Lost or stolen cards must immediately be reported to the office manager.

VISITORS

When receiving visitors for meetings or other appointments, you can speed up their entry into the
complex by sending their name (and DNI if you have it, but not necessary) to this email address:
pbureauseguridad@simpa.com.ar.

If the guests arrive by car, security will show them the visitor spots outside of the Santander Rio bank.

The employee who’s receiving a guest is responsible for receiving the guest and accompanying the
person at all time.

4. OFFICE LOGISTICS
BUSINESS CARDS

Business cards are a necessary tool for those who deal with outside entities as part of their work. Before
ordering business cards, please secure approval from your line manager or the CEO.

Please read and follow procedure for business cards and create them using the tool in BrandBook. After
downloading the PDF, please send it to the office manager who will send it to the print shop.

MEETING ROOMS

The Argentina Office has several meeting rooms, all of which can be booked through Outlook.

The Salta training room can accommodate up to 24 people. This room is prepared to host training
courses as the IT equipment is already set in place.

Mendoza and Bariloche are prepared for Skype calls. Iguazú and Tucumán are smaller meeting rooms
without permanent technological tools. When not in use, they can be used for quick phone calls that
need privacy.

Whoever organizes the meeting is responsible for clearing away coffee cups and other items after the
meeting is over.

DUTY TRAVEL

Before any Duty Travel, please fill out the “Travel Authorization Form” to be approved and signed by the

Duty travel should, to the extent possible, be carried out on Norwegian flights. In the absence of
Norwegian flights, the most cost appropriate alternative should be selected. Travel can be arranged
using the travel agency approved by Norwegian Air Argentina, Biblos (akohan@biblostravel.com). All
Norwegian employees are expected to travel in economy class using the lowest rate when traveling on
behalf of the company.

To control the costs for travel expenses of the company, please plan the trips as far in advance as
reasonably possible. Employees are encouraged to be cost conscious and use public transport where
available.

Travel Insurance for Duty travel is provided AIG through Lifeline Plus Employee Travel Pack.

For more detailed information and guidelines, please consult the Group Policy on business and duty
travel.

Reimbursable expenses are considered as all reasonable expenses incurred by the employees when
carrying out company business or made on behalf of the company in accordance with Norwegian
policies and shall always be approved by manager, in advance or afterwards, depending on the expense
characteristics.

Those reimbursement requests not approved will not be refunded. All reimbursable expenses made on
behalf of the company must be reported to the company with the receipts or invoices as the only valid
