Equal Employment Opportunity Policy Statement:

The Company provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, marital status, domestic partner status, status as a Vietnam-era or special disabled veteran, or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal, state, and local laws. This applies to all terms and conditions of employment including, without limitation, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, lay-off, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation, and training. The Company will not tolerate unlawful discrimination and expressly prohibits any form of unlawful employee harassment based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, marital status, domestic partner status, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected under applicable law.

Cooperation with all Company investigations, including those involving a complaint of illegal discrimination or harassment, is a condition of employment. The Company prohibits retaliation against individuals who, in good faith, report a claim of discrimination or harassment or who assist in providing information relevant to a claim of discrimination or harassment. Conversely, bad faith reports of harassment or discrimination will subject an employee to disciplinary action, up to and including termination.

As is true with respect to all Company policies, disregarding or violating this Policy will result in disciplinary action, up to and including discharge.
