Receipt and Acknowledgment of TICE Employee Handbook

I have received and read a copy of the TICE Employee Handbook. I understand that the policies, rules and benefits described in it are subject to change at the sole discretion of TICE at any time. This manual is not all-inclusive.

I further understand that my employment is terminable at will, either by myself or TICE, regardless of the length of my employment or the granting of benefits of any kind, including but not limited to profit sharing benefits which provide for vesting based upon length of employment.

I understand that no contract of employment other than “at will” has been expressed or implied, and that no circumstances arising out of my employment will alter my “at will” employment relationship unless expressed in writing, with the understanding specifically set forth and signed by myself and the President of TICE.

I am aware that during the course of my employment confidential information will be made available to me, i.e., customer lists, pricing policies and other related information. I understand that this information is critical to the success of TICE and must not be disseminated or used outside of TICE’s premises. In the event of termination of employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, I hereby agree not to utilize or exploit this information with any other individual or company.

I understand that, cell phones are not to be used when an employee is on the clock and working.

I have read, understand, and agree to abide by the uniform policy listed above. I also understand that failure to adhere to this policy will result in strict disciplinary action, including termination of employment.

I further understand that all new employees shall serve a probationary period of 90 calendar days, commencing with their first day of employment.

I have read and been given a copy of TICE policy on drugs and alcohol. I understand that as a condition of employment, I am subject to its provisions, and to changes that may be made in the policy from time to time and I UNDERSTAND THAT TICE DOES RANDOMLY DRUG TEST EMPLOYEES AND I DO CONSENT TO THIS TESTING.

I understand that, should the content be changed in any way, TICE may require an additional signature for me to indicate that I am aware of and understand any new policies.

I understand that my signature below indicates that I have read and understand the above statements and have received a copy of the TICE Employee Handbook.
