Introduction

The purpose of this Talos handbook is to guide new employees within the company. It is a resource that provides answers for the most frequently asked employee questions. Besides informing new employees about company policy, Talos’ handbook emphasizes the at-will nature of the employment and the company’s disciplinary and termination rights. Most importantly, it is a declaration of your rights and our expectations.

Open Door Policy

Employees are encouraged to bring any workplace concerns or problems they might have or know about to their supervisor or some other member of management.

Purpose of this Handbook

This handbook has been prepared to inform new employees of the policies and procedures of this company and to establish the company’s expectations. It is not all- inclusive or intended to provide strict interpretations of our policies; rather, it offers an overview of the work environment. This handbook is not a contract, expressed or implied, guaranteeing employment for any length of time and is not intended to induce an employee to accept employment with the company.

The company reserves the right to unilaterally revise, suspend, revoke, terminate or change any of its policies, in whole or in part, whether described within this handbook or elsewhere, in its sole discretion. If any discrepancy between this handbook and current company policy arises, conform to current company policy. Every effort will be made to keep you informed of the company’s policies, however we cannot guarantee that notice of revisions will be provided. Feel free to ask questions about any of the information within this handbook.

Important

At-Will Employment

Employment at this company is at-will. An at-will employment relationship can be terminated at any time, with or without reason or notice by either the employer or the employee. This at-will employment relationship exists regardless of any statements by office personnel to the contrary. Only a general manager is authorized to modify the at-will nature of the employment relationship, and the modification must be in writing.
