HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

CUSTOMER SERVICE COMMITMENT Customers are important because they are the cornerstone of Access. Consequently, they deserve the highest level of service possible. As such, when a customer contacts an Access employee it is our priviledge to serve and should never be viewed as we are doing the customer a favor by serving them.

Interactions with customers, employees must always be courteous and helpful, never argumentative or abusive. Personal contacts and telephone contacts with customers should always be professional and caring.

STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY Welcome to Access Management! This employee handbook is a summary of policies, procedures and practices related to human resource management at Access Management. This handbook is an overview of Access’ philosophy and expectations. It is provided for employees as a reference source for policies, benefits and other important employment information. It is also a reference tool for supervisors and management staff in the daily administration of Access policies. As such, it is the exclusive property of Access. This edition supersedes all previous Access statements, including any previous manuals, handbooks, memoranda and oral or written statements pertaining to Access policies described herein. This handbook serves as useful information about Access, as well as policies and procedures concerning its employees’ obligations, responsibilities, benefits and privileges. In addition, circumstances will require that policies, practices and benefits described in the handbook change from time to time. Access reserves the right to amend, supplement, or rescind any provisions of this handbook with or without immediate notice. New information will be distributed as soon as practical after it has been developed. Access further reserves the right to modify, revoke, suspend, terminate or change any or all policies, in whole or in part, at any time and without immediate notice. No policy will be altered, revised, amended or revoked without the consent of the CEO. The Officers and Management of Access want employees to enjoy their working relationship and hope that it proves to be long and productive for both parties. However, employment at Access is not offered, contracted or promised for any specific length of time, and is, at all times considered “employment at will”. Please take the time to read this handbook carefully; it is the responsibility of each employee to be familiar with its contents. For more specific information, or if you have any questions not covered in this employee handbook, contact the HR Manager directly.

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

EMPLOYEE RELATIONS Access is committed to a professional and productive work environment for all employees. Consistent with this purpose, Access has expectations regarding production and conduct that will ensure a successful business in a climate of mutual respect. Along with the benefits and opportunities offered, employees have certain responsibilities for which they are accountable. The most important accountability is to be productive in their assigned tasks. This requires listening to their immediate supervisor, respecting their experience, and carrying out assignments promptly and completely. In addition, doing a good job requires employees to follow safety procedures, ask questions and make constructive suggestions. The Leadership Team is interested in new ideas and welcomes input as to how Access can work more efficiently. Doing a good job also implies maintaining good health and mental alertness, using good judgment, being prompt and regular in attendance, cooperating with the immediate supervisor and fellow workers and respecting others. Each person is vital to the continued success of Access. We know that commitment and good work performance of employees are the primary factors in the growth of Access. We have developed these policies with that philosophy in mind. WE WILL: • Treat each employee with courtesy, respect and consideration; • Recognize the value of cooperative, well-trained, efficient and loyal people working together for the benefit of each other and Access; • Provide fair, competitive pay and safe working conditions; • Provide an appropriate opportunity for discussions of any problems and/or misunderstandings; • Promote from within whenever possible on the basis of merit, ability, job performance and special skills. • In order for this employment relationship to benefit both employee and employer, Access expects all employees among other things: • To give a productive day’s work to the best of their skill and ability • Maintain good attendance • To arrive at, and begin work on time Employee Orientation Program

• To demonstrate a considerate, amiable and positive attitude toward co-workers, customers, etc. • To adhere to the policies and procedures set forth by Access • Meet or exceed high quality and quantity work standards • Practice safe work habits • Follow work instructions • Respect both Access and others’ property • Follow established operating procedures All areas and departments work as a team and it is important that all employees cooperate with each other. No individual is any more important than another. All differences of opinion can be promptly resolved by the proper approach. We encourage all employees, at any level, to contact their immediate supervisor or management regarding issues of importance, concerns or misunderstandings in the workplace. 7

EMPLOYMENT

EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY

EMPLOYMENT AT WILL

It is the policy of Access to grant Equal Employment Opportunities to all qualified persons without regard to race, sex, religion, age, national origin, marital status, physical or mental disability (that does not prohibit performance of essential job functions), veteran’s status, or any other conditions or identifications against which discrimination is prohibited by appropriate statute or law. Access provides equal opportunities in employment, training, promotions, pay, benefits and all other privileges, terms and conditions of employment. Access’ policy is to carry out programs and to make equal opportunity a reality. Although law requires this policy, it also represents the Company’s moral commitment to its employees. This policy will apply in the event of conflict with any other policy set forth in this handbook.

Employment with Access is “at will”, meaning that either the employee or the Company may terminate the employment relationship for any reason at any time with or without prior notice. Remember, this handbook is not a contract of employment. Access disclaims any implied contractual obligation of continuing employment. Although we hope that your employment relationship with us will be long term, either you or Access may terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason, with or without cause or notice. Please understand that no manager, supervisor or representative of Access has the authority to enter into any agreement with you for employment for any specified period of time, or to otherwise alter the at-will nature of your employment.

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

ORIENTATION All new Access employees shall receive an orientation session which will encompass an overview of general policies, procedures and operations. This will also provide employees, new to either a position or Access, an opportunity to learn the performance expectations management has with regard to the position in question. They will be given a copy of this Employee Handbook and will be expected to learn its contents. They will also make aware of policies such as, Code of Ethics, and asked to sign off on their adherence to same.

Employee Orientation Program

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION The revelation or use of any confidential information, data on decisions, plans, or any other information that might be contrary to the interest of Access without prior authorization, is prohibited. The misuse, unauthorized access to, or mishandling of confidential information, particularly personnel information, is strictly prohibited. In the course of work, employees may have access to confidential information regarding Access, customers, or maybe even fellow employees, such as financial, contractual, production or administrative records and information of the property and its customers. A prime responsibility is to not reveal or divulge any such information and to use it only in the performance of the job. Therefore, employees are not to engage in the unauthorized discussion of confidential information outside Access and only with fellow employees who need to know in order to perform their job. Additionally, no employee shall, during their employment or thereafter, disclose to others or use any confidential, technical or other business information. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Confidential, technical or other business informationâ&#x20AC;? shall mean any information including lists of vendors, customers and employees which the employee has used, learned or contributed to during the course of his or her employment. All pay plans and employee information are also to be treated as confidential. Compensation is also considered confidential information. Please discuss compensation issues only with a Sr. Management representative. Inquiries from the media or other outside parties should be referred to the CEO. Inquiries regarding information on former employees must be directed to the HR Department. Prior to leaving the office in the evening, it is imperative that employees secure all confidential data, as well as checks and stamps, by placing them in their desk or file cabinets. Violation of protecting Company confidential records and information may result in immediate dismissal.

COMPLIANCE

Any violation of this policy will subject the employee to disciplinary action up to and including immediate dismissal. Any Access employee having knowledge of any violation of the policy shall promptly report such violation to the appropriate level of management. Each manager of Access is responsible for compliance in his/her area of responsibility. When questions arise concerning any aspect of this policy, contact the HR Manager.

Employee Orientation Program

BUSINESS ETHICS Employees are expected to maintain the highest ethical standards in the conduct of Access business. It is expected that each employee will conduct Access' business with integrity and comply with all applicable laws in a manner that excludes considerations of personal advantage or gain. The following is a summary of Access' policy with respect to (1) gifts, favors, entertainment and payments given or received by Access employees, (2) potential conflicts of interest and (3) certain other matters: Gifts, Favors, and Payments by Access Gifts, favors, and payments may be given to others at Access expense, if they meet all of the following criteria: • They are consistent with accepted business practices. • They are of sufficiently limited value and in a form that will not be construed as a bribe or payoff. • They are not in violation of applicable law and generally accepted ethical standards. • Public disclosure of the facts will not embarrass Access. • Payments, commissions or other compensation to or for the benefit of employees or customers (or their family members) not required by

written contract are a violation of Access policy. • Gifts, Favors, Entertainment and Payments Received by Access Employees Employees shall not seek or accept for themselves or others any gifts, favors, entertainment, payments without a legitimate business purpose nor shall they seek or accept personal loans other than conventional loans at market rates from lending institutions) from any persons or business organizations that do or seek to do business with or is a competitor of Access. In the application of this policy: • Employees may accept for themselves and members of their families common courtesies usually employed with customary business practices. These include but are not limited to: • Lunch and/or dinner with vendors sometimes including spouses as long as the invitation is extended by the vendor. • Gifts of small value from vendors such as calendars, pens, pads, etc. • Tickets to events (such as sports, arts, etc.) are acceptable if offered by the vendor and the vendor accompanies the employee to the event. These are not to be solicited by Access employee and must be approved by the appropriate Access officer. • Overnight outings are acceptable under the condition that individuals from either other companies or the vendor are in attendance.

The vendor must be in attendance and participation by the employee's family members is not acceptable. • Use of vendor's facilities (vacation homes, etc.) by employees or families for personal use is prohibited. In the event the vendor is present for the duration of the visit such a situation is acceptable as long as it is only once per year and for limited duration, i.e. a long weekend. The employee must have prior approval from the appropriate Access officer. • It is never permissible to accept a gift in cash or cash equivalent such as stocks or other forms of marketable securities of any amount. • Management employees should not accept gifts from those under their supervision of more than limited value.

Employee Orientation Program

Conflicts of Interest Employees should avoid any situation that involves or may involve a conflict between their personal interest and the interest of Access. As in all other facets of their duties, employees dealing with customers, suppliers, contractors, competitors or any person doing or seeking to do business with Access are to act in the best interest of Access. Each employee shall make prompt and full disclosure in writing to their manager of any potential situation which may involve a conflict of interest. Such conflicts include: • Ownership by employee or by a member of their family of a significant interest in any outside enterprise that does or seeks to do business with or is a competitor of Access. • Serving as a director, officer, partner, consultant, or in a managerial or technical capacity with an outside enterprise that does or is seeking to do business with or is a competitor of Access. Any exception to this must be approved by the Chief Executive Officer of Access. • Acting as a broker, finder, go-between or otherwise for the benefit of a third party in transactions involving or potentially involving Access or its interests. • Any other arrangements or circumstances, including family or other personal relationships, which might dissuade the employee from acting in the best interest of Access.

COMPUTERS, INTERNET & SOFTWARE POLICY It is the policy of Access to only use software licensed to and paid for by Access. Federal copyright laws protect computer software programs. To use an unlicensed copy of software is considered “software piracy” and is a crime subject to fines and other penalties. No software, games, screen savers or any other application may by installed on any computer owned by Access, unless the software is 1) owned and/or licensed to Access and 2) the installation is performed by an authorized Access representative. It is against Access policy for employees to make a copy of software owned by Access for their personal use. Neither should employees “lock” their computers to prohibit others from accessing them. Violation of these policies will not only subject the employee to possible disciplinary actions, but will also make them personally responsible for any legal actions. If unapproved software is found on any Access computer, Access will delete the software. Electronic Mail Access has provided an electronic mail (e-mail) system for use on Access business. Email and Internet connection is Access property and must be used for business purposes only. Employees may not use email to communicate personal information such as items for sale, parties, social gatherings or the like. Email or the Internet may not be used for an employee’s personal interests (for example: an employee’s use of social media, such as Facebook) whether they relate to outside business ventures, political campaigns, or religious causes. Employees are also prohibited from communicating trade secrets and other confidential information to any person or organization outside Access without permission from Sr. Management. 14

In connection with the provision of that e-mail system, Access has implemented the following policy: All communications and information transmitted by, received from, or stored in Access’s computer system are Access records and property of Access. It is against Access policy to send any e-mail message that contains intimidating, hostile, obscene or offensive material concerning sex, race, color, national original, religion, age, marital status, disability or any other classification protected by law. Access’s policies against sexual or other harassment apply fully to the e-mail system, and any violation of those policies is grounds for discipline up to and including dismissal. Employees have no right to, or reasonable expectation of, personal privacy in any matter stored in, created, received, or sent over Access’s e-mail system. Electronic mail messages are monitored by Access as a routine matter, and Access, in its discretion as owner of the e-mail system, reserves, and may exercise, the right to monitor, access, retrieve, and delete any matter stored in, created, received, or sent over the email system, for any reason and without the permission of any employee. Even if employees use a password to access the e-mail system, the confidentiality of any message stored in, received, or sent from Access e-mail system still cannot be assured. Use of passwords or other security measures does not in any way diminish Access’s rights to access materials on its system. Any password used by employees must be revealed to Access, as e-mail files may need to be accessed by Access in an employee’s absence.

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

The e-mail system may not be used to send copies of documents in violation of copyright laws, to send chain letters, or to otherwise violate the law. Employees should be aware that the deletion of any e-mail messages or files will not truly eliminate the messages from the system. All e-mail messages may be stored on a central back-up system in the normal course of data management. It is a violation of Access policy to send an e-mail message under the name of another Access employee (e.g., by sending an e-mail message from a computer that is logged on to the network as someone else) unless you have received permission from that employee. It is a violation of Access policy to access any e-mail message of which you are not the intended recipient unless (1) you have received permission from the intended recipient or (2) a determination is made by senior management that access is reasonably necessary to protect the interests of a client, Access or some other third party. Even though Access has the right to retrieve and read any e-mail messages, those messages should be treated as confidential by other employees and accessed only by the intended recipient. Employees are not authorized to retrieve or read any e-mail messages that are not sent to them. Any exception to this policy must receive the prior approval of Access management. Unless otherwise approved by senior management, the e-mail system may not be used to solicit for religious or political causes, commercial enterprises, outside organizations, or other non-job related solicitations. Employees are reminded to be courteous to other users of the system and conduct themselves in a professional manner. E-mails are sometimes misdirected or forwarded and may be viewed by persons other than the intended recipient. Users should write e-mail communications with no less care, judgment and responsibility than they would use for letters or internal memoranda written on Access’s letterhead. Because e-mail records and computer files may be subject to discovery in litigation or reviewed Employee Orientation Program

by regulating bodies like the SEC, employees are expected to avoid making statements in e-mail or computer files that would not reflect favorably on the employee or Access if disclosed in litigation or otherwise. Access reserves the right to monitor employees’ email and Internet communications. They are subject to inspection by Access management at any time. Employees should not have any expectation that the Company email system is private and/or confidential. When there are reasonable grounds to believe that a user is abusing computing resources, his or her computing privileges may be suspended immediately to protect Access’s computing environment. Abuse of the e-mail or Internet systems, through excessive personal use, or in violation of the law or Access policies, will result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. Internet Communication Increasingly, Access’s systems are being connected to external networks in an effort to gather and share information more effectively and efficiently. While the use of external networks benefits Access, it also increases Access’s exposure, as network connections are susceptible to eavesdropping, interception and illegal acquisition of information. Although Access has taken steps to secure our data and information resources from unauthorized access, all users are responsible for obeying the policies set forth in this document when accessing the external networks. User Responsibilities Acess to external networks including the internet is a privilege and requires users to act responsibly. Users must respect the rights of others, respect the integrity of Access’s systems and observe all relevant laws including not only those laws and regulations that are specific to computers and networks, but also those that may apply generally to personal conduct. While Access does not monitor internet

usage as a routine matter, it reserves the right to access and examine an employee’s use of Access’s internet system for any reason. Unacceptable Use Standards The following behaviors are examples of actions or activities that violate Access policy with respect to computer systems and their use. This list is not meant to be all inclusive, but rather to serve as an aid in determining appropriate behavior. Examples of misuse include, but are not limited to, the following: Providing others with access to one’s personal computer account(s), or gaining or attempting to gain access to the personal computer accounts, files, or electronic information of others or to accounts, files or systems to which authorized access has not been granted; Sending harassing, intimidating and/or threatening messages through electronic mail or other means; Intentionally intercepting, disclosing or using any electronic communication to which authorized access is not explicitly provided. Authorized access includes mail directed to or from an individual, and those messages intended for public consumption (news groups, bulletin boards, broadcast messages);

programming activities; Copying for oneself or distributing to others commercial or other copyrighted software or proprietary data that has not been placed in the public domain or been distributed as freeware; Use of Access computers, systems and/or services to perpetrate fraud, misrepresentation or illegal activity; Use of Access computers, systems and/or services for commercial purposes unrelated to Access’s business or unauthorized financial gain; Use of Access computers, systems and/or services for political activities; and Violation of any criminal law, e.g., obscenity or child pornography statutes, defamation, libel, etc. When there are reasonable grounds to believe that a user is abusing computing resources, his or her computing privileges may be suspended immediately to protect Access’s computing environment. Abuse of the e-mail or Internet systems, through excessive personal use, or violation of the law or Access policies, may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

Accessing pornographic or other inappropriate information located on the Internet is strictly prohibited while using Access equipment and software; Initiating or encouraging the promulgation of chain letters, unauthorized automated or mass postings, or other types of unauthorized large-scale distributions; “Hacking” or related behavior attempting to compromise Access computer security or the security of remote systems accessed through Access equipment or systems; Creating or releasing computer viruses or engaging in other destructive or potentially destructive

HEALTH AND SAFETY SAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT Safety on the job and on the highway is extremely important to the Company. It has taken every precaution to ensure employees’ safety, but the ultimate responsibility for an employee’s safety rests with each person. It is imperative that employees follow all safety procedures, use equipment properly, lift properly, wear seat belts, drive defensively and observe all instructional labels and warnings.

POLICIES & PROCEDURES LENGTH OF SERVICE Length of service is determined by a specific date. Usually, this date is the day an employee starts work on the Access payroll; however, if length of service has been broken for 2 or more months through resignation, dismissal or extended layoff, it will be calculated from the date the employee began work following the break in service. The date of a change in status, such as from temporary to regular or part-time to full-time, will be used to determine an employee’s eligibility for benefits. Benefits will become effective based on the date of the status change and other eligibility requirements.

90-DAY PROBATIONARY PERIOD The first ninety days of employment is considered a probationary period. It gives the Company an opportunity to find out whether employees’ initial work, their conduct, and their attendance conform to Company standards, and it gives employees the

opportunity to see if they really enjoy working at Access. Feel free to ask questions in order to learn the many aspects of your job duties. During this time, your manager will monitor your performance and, at the end of the ninety (90) days, your progress will be reviewed. The successful completion of this period should not be construed as creating a contract or as guaranteeing employment for any specific duration or as establishing a “just cause” termination standard. At the end of the probationary period, the immediate supervisor will discuss with the employee any areas for improvement. Pay increases are not typically given at the 90-day review. Access may decide it is best to extend this period for an additional amount of time. If an extension is deemed appropriate, the employee will be informed. With the exception of holidays, non-exempt (hourly) employees will not be paid for absences that occur during the 90-day probationary period or any extension thereto.

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

PART -TIME EMPLOYEES From time to time, the Company may find it necessary to hire employees for less than a full week’s work. Any employee considered internal staff that regularly works less than 32 hours weekly will be considered part-time. Personnel hired for part-time work will be paid at the rate agreed upon when employed and are not eligible for health benefits, paid vacation or paid holidays.

OUTSIDE EMPLOYMENT It is not the Company’s intent to control activities outside normal working hours. However, to ensure that any second job does not create a conflict of interest with the job at Access or affect attendance, performance or credibility, employees are required to inform their immediate supervisor before accepting or continuing a second job. Management reserves the right to restrict any outside work considered to be in conflict or competition Access.

TEMPORARY STATUS Temporary employees are defined as those employees who are hired for a limited duration; this category also includes "per diem" employees. Temporary employees are not eligible for any of the benefits outlined in this Handbook, unless otherwise required by law. Should a temporary employee be hired as a full-time employee, he/ she will be required to complete the Introductory Period before full-time status is given.

GUIDELINES FOR REDUCTION IN FORCE

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR STATUS

PROMOTIONS AND TRANSFERS

Independent Contractors are not employees of Access but, rather, are individuals retained by Access to provide a service to Access and/or its clients. Independent Contractors are not eligible for any of the benefits outlined in this Handbook.

Access believes in finding the most qualified person for all positions. That person may be currently working for the Company. When practical, the Company will inform internal staff of open positions so anyone interested may be given the opportunity for consideration. To be eligible, however, an employee must be in his/ her current position for a reasonable time period and have a satisfactory history of performance. Consideration for promotion or transfer of internal candidates is conditional on the employee’s skills and qualifications for the new position and his/ her past performance, attendance and conduct. Employees interested in transferring to another position must first discuss the matter with their

VOLUNTEERS If volunteers other than students are used in any other capacity, they will be screened for personal references and work histories. They will be assigned to a staff member for supervision.

Employee Orientation Program

We make every effort to maintain steady employment for all employees. However, if a situation arises which makes it necessary to cut back the work force, each job will be carefully reviewed along with each employee’s record. The needs of Access will be the guidelines upon which such decisions are made.

immediate supervisor. Access has an obligation to encourage stability and continuity within each department and those factors will be weighed when considering promoting employees from within Access. Employees who are promoted or transferred will be on a 90-day probationary period.

EMPLOYEE WORK SCHEDULES Your schedule may change from week to week and, therefore, must be verified each week. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW AND FOLLOW YOUR SCHEDULE. Your manager will show you the location where work schedules will be posted. Your manager is the only one authorized to make changes to posted schedules. Any unauthorized changes that you make to the schedule will result in a written warning. Employees are expected to arrive for work in uniform, no more than five (5) minutes before their shift, Employees are not allowed to punch in unless in uniform and ready to report to their work area. Employees must depart immediately at the end of their shift unless otherwise authorized by management. Due to business demands and considerations, it may be necessary to change your work shift or workstation. Your manager will make every effort to honor your schedule requests. However, while you may have been hired to work a certain shift, due to business demands and other considerations, it may be necessary to change your present shift or work station. Therefore, it is important that you realize you are hired with the understanding you will be scheduled as and where needed, and will be expected to work accordingly. Full time Regular Employees will usually be required to work approximately 40 hours per week.

RECORDING WORK HOURS It is the policy of the property to comply with applicable laws that require records to be maintained of the hours worked by our employees. To ensure that accurate records are kept of the hours you actually work (including overtime hours where applicable) and of the accrued Leave time you have taken, and to ensure that you are paid in a timely manner, you will be required to record your time worked and your absences using the Community's Time and Attendance System. After reviewing the system records, the posted work schedule, and resolving any discrepancies, your supervisor will sign the appropriate form and forward it to payroll for processing. Please ensure that your actual hours worked and Leave times taken are recorded accurately. Falsification of a time record is a breach of Access policy and is grounds for disciplinary action, including the possibility of termination. Access complies with all applicable laws that require the accurate recording of the hours worked by employees. All non-exempt employees are required to record hours of work. They must record the time they begin work, the time they leave for lunch, the time they return from lunch and the time they leave work at the end of the workday. Employees must also clock out any time they leave for nonâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;work related reasons during the workday. Supervisors will review staff time records for accuracy. It is the responsibility of supervisors to adjust and approve daily time entries. In the absence of a supervisor, another supervisor will approve the time entries.

ABSENTEEISM AND TARDINESS Access expects all employees to assume diligent responsibility for their attendance and promptness.

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

The success of all of our jobs depends on teamwork, and you should make every effort to be on the job and on time when scheduled to work. If, however, you are sick or faced with an emergency, you shall contact your manager to let him or her know about the situation as early as possible. You must contact the Community at least two (2) hours before the start of your scheduled shift. If you are unable to reach your manager, leave a message. Be sure to include the following information: • Your name and department • The date and time you were scheduled for work • The reason for not being able to report to work, and when you expect to be able to return • The phone number where you can be reached Call back until you make a live contact your manager and be sure the message has been received correctly. Since you alone are responsible to notify your manager, do not depend on others to report your absence or tardiness. Absences must be reported daily unless other arrangements have been made with your manager. Absenteeism or tardiness that is unexcused or excessive in the judgment of management, will reflect against your performance, and is grounds for disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. An employee who is absent from work because of illness for three (3) consecutive days may be required to provide a doctor's certification or Return to Work Statement. Any employee who fails to report for work or contact management for scheduled shifts will be subject to corrective action up to and including dismissal.

Employee Orientation Program

Any employee who is absent from work for two (2) or more consecutive days without notification to management will be deemed to have abandoned his or her job and may be terminated.

MEALS AND BREAKS Employees are granted a sixty (60) minute meal period, which will be deducted from their time register daily. If, on occasion, the demands of business are such that you are unable to take your meal break, ask the manager to write "NO BREAK" on your time register, and initial it. Be aware too, that you cannot refuse to take your meal break. Employees who consistently fail to take a meal break may be subject to disciplinary action, including the possibility of dismissal.

REGULAR PAY PROCEDURES All employees are normally paid on a bi-weekly basis with Friday’s being pay day. All required deductions, such as for federal, state and local taxes, and all authorized voluntary deductions, such as for health insurance contributions, will be withheld automatically from your paychecks. Please review your paycheck for errors. If you find a mistake, report it to your supervisor immediately. Your manager will assist you in taking the steps necessary to correct the error. In the event that your paycheck is lost or stolen, please notify your manager immediately. We are unable to take responsibility for lost or stolen paychecks, and if we are unable to stop payment, you alone will be responsible for such loss.

OVERTIME PAY PROCEDURES In the absence of special workload requirements, staff is expected to work their normal hours. However, from time to time client service needs may make it necessary for employees to work overtime. If required, employees are expected to cooperate. Overtime compensation for eligible employees (non-exempt), computed at time and one-half the regular hourly rate for hourly employees and half-time for non-exempt salaried workers on a fluctuating workweek, is paid for hours in excess of forty hours per workweek. Overtime must be approved in advance by the immediate supervisor. Time records with overtime hours must be approved by the immediate supervisor and the next level of management. Your manager will attempt to provide you with reasonable notice when the need for overtime work arises. Please remember, however, that advance notice may not always be possible.

Employees’ net pay will be less than the gross amount of their earnings because the Company is required to make certain deductions. As an example, the Company is required to deduct federal withholding tax (income tax) from employees’ earnings. Access deposits this deduction with the U.S. Treasury, and employees receive credit for it on their income tax at the end of the year. Taxable earnings and the number of exemption allowances according to the Form W-4 determine the amount of the tax deduction. Each year, employees receive a W-2 form showing their total earnings for the year and the amount of taxes withheld. Also, deductions for Social Security and Medicare (FICA) come out of employees’ paycheck at the rate established by law. This rate can change frequently depending on congressional action. The Company pays part of the total Social Security and Medicare tax and employees pay the other part. Any other deductions, such as insurance premiums or court-ordered deductions will also be reflected in the net pay.

PAY INCREASES Pay increases are not automatic, but are merit based and are directly influenced by job-related factors such as performance and conduct.

RESIGNATION

We take every precaution to avoid errors in paychecks; however, if an error does occur, please bring it to the attention of accounting to determine if an adjustment is in order. All minor errors will be corrected on the next payday. Major corrections will be handled independently and the adjustment made as soon as possible.

Employees who decide to resign are to submit their resignation in writing to their immediate supervisor at least two weeks prior to the effective date. This two-week notice will allow the Company enough time to adjust work schedules and secure a replacement; however, the Company reserves the right to accept the employee’s resignation at any time during the two-week period. Employees required to leave before the end of their notice will be paid only through their last day worked. Final paychecks will be distributed on the next regularly scheduled payday.

PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS

The separation date of employees resigning while on vacation or holiday, will be the last day they worked. Employees will not be paid for any

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

vacation hours or holiday pay if they do not return to work after their vacation or the holiday. Failure to report to work for two consecutive days without reporting to the immediate supervisor is considered job abandonment. The official separation date will be the last day worked. Employees who resign with proper notice will be paid for any unused vacation time only. Any outstanding bonus or commission will be forfeited by employee upon resignation.

DISMISSAL Employees are expected to abide by the policies in this handbook, perform their job in an exemplary manner, follow instructions and conduct themselves in a professional manner. Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. A written record of performance issues or policy violations will be maintained in personnel files. Advance notice is not given in dismissal situations and pay through the date of dismissal will be mailed to the employee’s last known address on the next regular payday. Dismissal meetings will be conducted in the privacy of an office or other appropriate location. Employees who are dismissed will be paid for any unused vacation time only. Any outstanding bonus or commission will be not be paid to the employee.

up-to-date is important because it enables the Company to reach employees in an emergency, properly maintain insurance and other benefits, and compute payroll deductions. Payroll must be notified immediately in writing of changes in an employee’s: • Name • Home address and telephone number • Marital Status (for insurance and withholding tax purposes) • Beneficiaries listed on insurance policies and 401(K) plan. • Dependents listed on an employee’s insurance policy. • Person to notify in case of emergency. • Other important factual information concerning the employee. Access to personnel records may be obtained by employees through the Accounting Department. However, the Company does not allow records to be copied or taken off premises.

PERSONNEL RECORDS Access is required by a number of government agencies to maintain certain records containing facts about its employees. This information is kept in a permanent and confidential file that is the Company’s employment record of each employee. Keeping this record correct and

staff to dress in business professional attire.

At Access, we are dedicated to providing service that consistently exceeds the expectations of our Residents & Guests. The ways in which we can accomplish this are by recognizing the individuality and respecting the privacy of our Residents & Guests, and always seeking to anticipate the needs of our customers in the spirit of friendly, appreciative and attentive service.

Acceptable Dress Code Guidelines for Business Professional Attire:

PERSONAL APPEARANCE Your appearance is the first thing our Residents & Guests will notice. Special emphasis should be placed on hygiene and the clean, neat appearance of your face, hands and hair. As an employee, you will be known for your professionalism and service attitude and this should be reflected in your appearance. Ear rings should be posts, no hoops or ear rings that dangle as they can pose a safety hazard. No tattoos shall be visible to guests during your shift. The Manager will determine specific Dress and Grooming Standards, beyond what is outlined below, for your particular position.

Female Employees – Suits, pantsuits, dress blouses, community polo, dress slacks, dress skirts, blazers, dressy dresses, dress shoes and name tag. At all Times: - Clothing must be clean; - Appropriate undergarments must be worn; - No transparent or revealing garments. No spaghetti straps, spandex, bare midriffs or tight/ clingy clothing; - Fragrances should be applied lightly so as not to irritate other employees; - Tattoos should not be visible; and - No facial or tongue piercing. The Company expects all employees to take pride in their appearance by arriving for work properly dressed, groomed and adhering to acceptable hygiene standards.

DRESS CODE It is in Access’ best interest to present a professional image to its customers, vendors and the public. Accordingly, Access generally requires all internal

Male Employees – Dress shirt, community polo, dress slacks, dress shoes and name tag.

Management reserves the right to determine the appropriateness of attire. Employees found to be

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

in violation of the dress code will be sent home to change with the time being charged to the employee’s vacation or, if vacation is not available, the time will be unpaid. Repeated offenses could result in disciplinary action up to and including dismissal.

NAME TAGS Nametags are issued to all employees as part of the uniform and business attire, which is to be worn daily. No badges, buttons, pins, patches, or ribbons may be attached to your nametag or any other part of your uniform or business attire. The nametag serves as a security measure and also identifies you as an employee to our Residents & Guests and fellow staff members.

DRUG/ALCOHOL ABUSE POLICY Access is a Drug-Free Workplace and maintains a strong commitment to programs that promote safety in the workplace and employee health and wellbeing. For these reasons, we have developed the following policy: The use, sale, possession, or distribution of illegal narcotics, drugs, alcohol or controlled substances by any employee while on Access business or on Company premises is prohibited. (Company premises include: all offices, means of transportation owned by or leased to Access or otherwise being utilized for Access business). Employees are also prohibited from reporting to work while under the influence of illegal or improperly used narcotics, drugs or controlled substances. Violation of this rule may result in disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. Prescription and over-the-counter drugs are not prohibited when taken in standard dosage and/ or according to a physician's prescription. Any

Employee Orientation Program

employee taking prescribed or over-the-counter medications will be responsible for consulting the prescribing physician and/or pharmacist to ascertain whether the medication may interfere with safe performance of his/her job. If the use of a medication could compromise the safety of the employee, fellow employees or the public, it is the employee's responsibility to use appropriate personnel procedures (e.g., call in sick, use leave, request change of duty, notify supervisor) to avoid unsafe workplace practices. The illegal or unauthorized use of prescription drugs is prohibited. It is a violation of this drugfree workplace policy to intentionally misuse and/ or abuse prescription medications. Appropriate disciplinary action will be taken if job performance deterioration and/or other accidents occur. Off-the-job drug/alcohol use which could adversely affect an employee’s job performance or which could jeopardize the safety of other employees, the public, Company equipment or facilities, or where such usage adversely affects the public trust in the ability of Access to carry out its responsibilities, is also cause for disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. Employees who are arrested for and convicted of off-the-job drug/alcohol activity may be considered in violation of this policy. In deciding what action to take, Access will take into consideration the nature of the charges, the employee’s present job assignment, the employee’s record with Access, the impact of the employee’s conviction on the conduct of Company business and any other factors Access may deem relevant. Any employee who is convicted of any criminal drug statute for a violation occurring outside the workplace must notify his/her immediate supervisor within five days of the conviction. Access reserves the right to conduct drug screening to identify employees who use illegal drugs or abuse alcohol, either on or off the job. It

shall be a condition of continued employment for all employees to submit to a drug screen: When there is a reasonable suspicion to believe that an employee is using or has used illegal drugs or is abusing or has abused alcohol. At other times and under such circumstances as deemed appropriate by Access management and current state and/or federal standards. Employees will be given adequate notice of any addition/ change/deletion in the company’s drug testing requirements. Access realizes that an employee may become dependent upon alcohol or narcotic substances that alter the quality of his/her professional and personal life. Access considers that most dependencies may be treatable and encourages those who are willing to help themselves by seeking outside help. Employees are encouraged to seek assistance from reputable sources within the community. Employees who do not request assistance and have drugs detected via an incident, accident or drug test, may be subject to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. Any information concerning substance abuse situations shared with Access will be handled with the strictest of confidence. While it is the desire of Access that any employee with a substance abuse problem submit to available treatment, certain guidelines must be set to cover instances when an employee does not seek help or engages in prohibited conduct while on Access business or premises. There are a number of good reasons for this policy. Employees under the influence of drugs or alcohol pose a serious threat to their own safety as well as the safety of others. Also, employees cannot perform their job properly while working under the influence of drugs or alcohol. An employee’s personal protection and the quality of Access’ work are very important to everyone. Equally important is the fact that the improper use of

many drugs and narcotics is unlawful. Compliance with the above policy and work rules will ensure a safe and healthy working environment. It is intended to protect all employees from the harmful effects of possible accidents and errors that can occur while individuals are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Again, Access encourages all employees with a substance dependency to seek help. Any employee having questions about this policy or work rules, should speak with his/her immediate supervisor.

SMOKING To maintain a safe and comfortable working environment and to ensure compliance with applicable laws, smoking in offices and facilities is strictly prohibited. You should become familiar with the areas throughout the premises where smoking is either permitted or prohibited. These areas have been marked clearly and because Community may be subject to criminal and civil penalties for violations of applicable smoking laws, we must insist on strict adherence to this policy. Employees smoking in any non-smoking area may be subject to disciplinary action.

NO RETURN TO WORK POLICY Employees may not return to the premises before or after their shift.

CASH HANDLING Access has a no cash policy. Failure to follow proper Cash Handling procedures may result in termination. In addition, if Access suffers

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

monetary loss due to employee's gross negligence, dishonesty or willful misconduct, we reserve the right to institute restitution proceedings, as well as impose appropriate disciplinary penalty.

PERSONAL TELEPHONE PERSONAL CELL PHONES

CALLS/

Phones in the public areas are not to be used by employees. Employees should discourage friends and family from calling them at work. The Front Office will take messages for employees only in the case of an emergency. Management will locate the employee directly and arrange for direct contact with the caller. Employees who are not authorized to use personal cell phone/pagers/beepers while in the course of their duties will not carry a personal phone or pager while on duty. These devices are not an authorized part of uniforms or business attire and should not be carried during work hours. Exceptions to this policy will be made at the discretion of management, and will generally be limited to medical care or emergency situations. For business calls, always be courteous and attentive. Please remember that opinions about Access are often based on how employees conduct business over the telephone. Regardless of how the other person is conducting himself or herself on the telephone, always be courteous and attentive. Please engage these techniques when utilizing the telephone: Employees should always speak distinctly, courteously and in a business-like manner. Telephone personalities can be developed into a valuable asset. The only impressions many people develop of Access are from telephone conversations.

are developed via the telephone and can impact opinions about the Company’s professionalism. Employees should never place their hand over the mouthpiece. Instead, use the “hold” feature. Employees should always be conscious of the caller’s time and never keep a customer on a “dead” line. When a person called is busy or out of the office temporarily, advise the caller and offer to take a message or send to voice mail. Employees should never chew gum or place food or other items in the mouth while using the telephone. Employees should always take notes when listening. They should record all pertinent information accurately and repeat the name and telephone number if necessary. Employees should answer all calls, including inhouse calls, by the second ring. Any questions regarding the proper use of the telephone system should be directed to the employee’s immediate supervisor.

GUM OR OTHER CHEWING SUBSTANCES Chewing gum while on stage, tobacco, toothpicks, or any other matter while on duty is prohibited.

PARKING Specific areas are designed for employee parking. This policy applies to all employees and failure to comply may result in disciplinary action. Access is not responsible for damage or loss due to vandalism or theft.

Management. Misuse of equipment may result in discipline ranging from warning to dismissal and employees may be held financially responsible for damage to Access equipment or property for any misuse, negligence or intentional harm.

GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

All Access property must remain on Company premises unless permission is received in writing from Sr. Management. Written permission is required to prevent the appearance or suspicion of theft, which could result in immediate dismissal.

One indication of the quality of work is the condition and appearance of work and break areas. Orderliness reduces accidents and fire hazards, improves health conditions, adds to the efficiency of work, improves the quality of service and portrays a favorable image to customers. All employees can help by placing trash and refuse in the containers provided and by applying a few simple rules of cleanliness. Food should only be placed in the trash containers in the break room, not in trash cans at desks. Employees should inform their immediate supervisor of any housekeeping needs (i.e., dim lightbulbs, low supplies in kitchens/restrooms and broken/loose items). It is everyone’s responsibility to help keep his/her area clean and in good order.

Doors to Access’s offices should be kept locked after normal business hours and after business hours on weekends and on holidays. The last person to leave needs to make sure that all doors are locked.

Desks and work areas should be clean and organized. Radios or other sound equipment are not permitted in work areas. The last one to leave the area at the end of the day should make sure office and area lights are turned off.

CARE OF EQUIPMENT

SELLING ON COMPANY PROPERTY – SOLICITATION AND DISTRIBUTION

Please notify your manager prior to leaving the Community for any reason during your work shift. You must punch out and in and check with your manager when reporting back to work. Failure to do so may lead to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal.

SECURITY OF PROPERTY

Access has made a significant investment in equipment. Please exercise care in the use of this equipment. If any Access equipment is defective or is not well suited for the job, the immediate supervisor should be notified immediately. A few timely repairs may prevent costly breakdown of the equipment. Please do not use Access equipment or property for personal reasons unless prior approval has been obtained from Sr.

Distribution of non-work related email communications, printed or graphic material of any description, or the solicitation or distribution of literature for sales of non-work related goods or services by employees on Access property must have prior approval from Sr. Management. Sr. Management will also determine the appropriate distribution method.

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

Solicitation and distribution of any non-work related materials or email communications will not be permitted during the time an employee is supposed to be working. Any employee who does so neglects his/her own work and may interfere with the work of another employee and will be subject to disciplinary action. Distributing, authorizing or encouraging the distribution of pamphlets or printed matter of any kind on Access property by persons who are not employees is strictly prohibited. An employee observing a violation of these policies should report it to his/her immediate supervisor immediately.

GUIDELINES FOR APPROPRIATE CONDUCT

• Willfully, negligently disregarding any security rule or regulation, or other unacceptable conduct;

Access has an at-will employment relationship with its employees, but there may be situations in which Access has to take disciplinary action with an employee. When an employee engages in conduct that warrants discipline, Access may impose any disciplinary penalty that it believes appropriate, up to and including dismissal. Depending upon the circumstances involved, Access may choose disciplinary actions such as verbal or written warnings, suspensions without pay, immediate dismissal or other appropriate actions.

• Distributing unauthorized literature during working hours;

This section is designed to highlight examples of conduct that may result in disciplinary action. Listed below are actions that are subject to disciplinary action. This list is by no means allinclusive and it is intended solely to outline some general areas of unacceptable conduct:

• Engaging in any act of discrimination or unlawful harassment against a fellow employee, customer or guest of Access; and

• Falsifying employment or other business records • Soliciting gratuities from customers or clients, or adding a gratuity to a customer check • Engaging in unauthorized use of Access supplies, property, or computer internet and email systems particularly for personal purposes

Employee Orientation Program

• Unauthorized solicitation by co-workers, except during non-working time. For purposes of this rule, the term “non-working time” means any period of the work day when employees are not employed in performing their work tasks (i.e., lunch and break periods); • Engaging in acts of theft, sabotage, removal or unauthorized use of Access information;

• Possession of guns or other weapons on Access premises. Access reserves the right to terminate the employment of any employee, at any time, for any reason, with or without warning. Access also recognizes the reciprocal right of an employee to resign his/her employment at any time and for any reason.

Generally, we will use a policy of “Progressive Discipline” which includes the following action steps: • Verbal Warning • 1st Written Warning • 2nd Written Warning • Final Warning/Suspension

openly with the HR manager, who will listen in a courteous manner, because it is her/his desire to understand and aid in solving problems that arise at work. This policy recognizes that, being human, mistakes are made despite our best efforts. We want such mistakes to be corrected, and the only way we can do this is to be aware of your problem or complaint.

• Suspension pending investigation* • Termination

INCLEMENT WEATHER

*Some infractions could result in immediate Suspension, which is used as a time to investigate the infraction. Once the investigation is complete, Management may elect to move impose a different form of discipline, up to and including termination, depending on the severity of the infraction.

In the event inclement weather makes it appear the office may be closed for the day, employees should call their immediate supervisor to determine the work status for that day. If the office closes due to inclement weather employees may use vacation or take the time as unpaid time.

You will be asked to acknowledge receipt of action plans, warnings and suspensions via signature. While we believe in the principle of “Progressive Discipline,” it may not be appropriate in all situations. Management reserves the right to impose discipline it deems appropriate in all instances, without following the “Progressive Discipline” policy outlined above.

OPEN DOOR POLICY Misunderstandings or conflicts can arise in any organization. To ensure effective working relations, it is important that such matters be resolved before serious problems develop. Most incidents resolve themselves naturally. However, if a situation persists that you believe is detrimental to you, you should discuss the issue with your Manager. If you are uncomfortable raising the issue with your Manager, you should bring the issue to the attention of the HR Manager. During this discussion, feel free to discuss the matter

When the employee is ready to return to work, no guarantee is made that he or she will return to his or her prior position. If management determines that, due to a business necessity, the employee's position cannot be left vacant or filled on a temporary basis during the employee's absence from work, the position will be filled by a regular employee. If the prior position has been filled, the Company will review current vacancies to see if an appropriate position is available for which the employee is qualified.

Employee Orientation Program

An employee will be terminated at the end of his or her leave, ending his or her employment status, when: (1) a position is not available; or, (2) the employee declines the offer of a position; or, (3) the employee fails to return to work. It is the intent of the Company to at all times be in compliance with the applicable federal, state and local laws. To the extent any portion of this policy is in conflict with such applicable law, it shall be deemed modified so as to conform to such law.

FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE POLICY The Company has adopted this policy to implement the terms of the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (“FMLA”).

26-weeks of unpaid leave during a single 12-month period to care for a parent, son, daughter, spouse or next of kin who is a Covered Service member, regardless of whether the employee has taken leave for another FMLA qualifying reason in the past 12-months. Any leave taken under one or more of these circumstances will be counted against the employee’s total entitlement to FMLA leave for that Leave Year.

C. Paid Leave Benefit Coordination with FMLA Leave: FMLA leave under this policy is generally unpaid leave. If, however, the employee is eligible for any paid leave under any other benefit programs such as accrued vacation, unused sick or personal days, the employee will be required to exhaust the paid leave upon the commencement of, and concurrently with, FMLA leave (unless the employee’s own serious health condition has caused the leave and the employee is receiving workers’ compensation benefits). Paid leave will run concurrently with and be counted toward the employee’s total 12-week or 26-week period of FMLA leave. Employees on leave that qualifies both as workers’ compensation and FMLA leave who are offered a light duty position will have the option of remaining on FMLA leave without pay (and foregoing the light duty position and additional workers’ compensation benefits) or accepting the light duty position. If the employee accepts the light duty position, then the employee’s right to job restoration (as described below) runs through the end of the applicable Leave Year. If the employee accepts light duty, then s/he retains the right to be restored to the same position the employee held at the time his or her FMLA leave commenced or to an equivalent position.

An Eligible Employee is entitled to a total of

Employee Orientation Program

Intermittent or Reduced Scheduled Leave:

FMLA leave may be taken intermittently or on a reduced work schedule basis. If FMLA leave is taken intermittently or on a reduced schedule basis, then the Company may require the employee to transfer temporarily to an available alternative position with an equivalent pay rate and benefits, including a part-time position, to better accommodate recurring periods of leave due to foreseeable medical treatment. Every employee is obligated to make a reasonable effort to schedule medical treatment so as not to unduly interrupt Company operations. Any employee who needs an intermittent or reduced schedule leave shall submit an application for such leave on a form supplied by Company at the time described above. The employee shall also, within the time limits set forth, furnish Company with the proper medical certification on Form WH-380-E, which will be supplied by Company, regarding the need for such intermittent or reduced schedule leave. As in the case for other FMLA leaves, Company may require a second or third medical certification. Prior to the commencement of any intermittent or reduced schedule leave, the employee requesting intermittent or reduced scheduled leave must advise the Company of the reasons why the intermittent/reduced scheduled leave is necessary and of the schedule for treatment, if applicable. The employee and Company shall attempt to work out a schedule for such leave that meets the employee’s needs without disrupting Company operations.

Employee Notice Requirement:

Employees are required to provide Company with sufficient information to make it aware that the employee needs FMLA-qualifying leave, and the anticipated timing and duration of the leave. Sufficient information may include the following: that the employee is unable to perform his or her job functions; that the employee’s family member is unable to perform his or her daily activities; that

the employee or his or her family member must be hospitalized or undergo continuing treatment; or the circumstances supporting the need for military family leave. When an employee seeks leave due to a FMLA-qualifying reason for which Company has previously provided FMLA-protected leave, the employee must specifically reference the qualifying reason for the leave and the need for “FMLA” leave. If the need for leave is foreseeable, the employee is required to provide such notice to the HR Manager at least 30 days before the commencement of the leave, unless impracticable to do so under the circumstances, in which case notice must be given as soon as possible, generally the same or the next business day. The employee also must follow any Company policy requiring advance notice, reasons for leave and anticipated start and duration of the leave. Failure to provide advance notice or follow Company policy when the need for leave is foreseeable may result in delay or denial of FMLA leave. If the leave is not foreseeable, the employee must provide notice to the Company of need for leave as soon as practicable, and must follow Company’s normal call-in procedures, as described this handbook. Failure to follow Company’s callin procedures, absent unusual circumstances, will result in delay or denial of the leave. In case of planned medical treatment for a serious health condition, the employee is required to make a reasonable effort to schedule the treatment so as not to disrupt the operations of Company. Employees are required to give additional notice as soon as practicable whenever there is a change in the dates of scheduled leave. Company requires that the employee’s health care provider complete a fitness-for-duty certification that specifically addresses whether the employee is able to perform the essential functions of his or her job before the employee can return to work. If the Company has a “reasonable safety concern,” it may also require periodic fitness-for-duty certifications prior to the employee’s return from intermittent FMLA leave, up to once every 30 days. A “reasonable safety concern” means a reasonable belief of significant

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

risk of harm to the individual employee or others. Upon receiving sufficient notice of an employee’s need for FMLA-qualifying leave, Company will notify the employee of his or her eligibility to take FMLA leave within five (5) business days of the request, absent extenuating circumstances. At this time, the Company will also provide the employee written notice of the employee’s rights and obligations with respect to the leave (as well as providing copies of the required certification form).

Application and Medical Certification:

A leave to care for the employee’s own serious health condition, or the serious health condition of a covered family member, must be supported by a medical certification completed by the health care provider for the employee or the covered family member. A qualifying exigency leave or a leave to care for a Covered Service member with a serious injury or illness must also be supported by a certification. Company will provide the proper certification to the employee for his or her respective leave within five (5) business days of the employee’s request for leave. The employee must return a complete and sufficient copy of the appropriate certification to Company within 15 calendar days of receiving the certification, unless it is not practicable. If the employee returns an incomplete or insufficient certification, then Company shall advise the employee in writing what additional information is necessary to make the certification complete and sufficient. In order to cure the deficiency, the employee must then return a complete and sufficient certification to Company within seven (7) calendar days. If the employee fails to cure a deficiency in a certification, or fails to return a certification, within the prescribed time period, Company may deny the taking of leave. A Company representative (other than the employee’s direct supervisor) may contact the

Employee Orientation Program

employee’s health care provider to clarify or authenticate the medical certification submitted for leave for the employee’s own serious health condition or the serious health condition of a family member. If Company has reason to doubt the validity of a medical certification, the employee will be required to obtain a second or third opinion at Company’s expense. Failure to comply with these certification requirements will result in the delay, denial or termination of leave. An employee who will be on a FMLA leave for more than one (1) week is required to call the HR Manager weekly to report when and if the employee expects to return to work. Company may request recertification at any time during the course of the leave for the employee’s own serious health condition, if: (1) the employee requests an extension of leave; (2) the circumstances of the employee’s condition as described in the previous certification have changed significantly, or (3) if Company has reason to suspect that an employee on FMLA leave has fraudulently obtained the FMLA leave. If desired by Company, a second or third certification in the manner provided above may be required. If the employee’s leave to care for his or her own serious health condition or that of a family member is expected to last more than 30 days, Company will require a new certification from the employee’s health care provider when leave is scheduled to expire, or every 6 months, whichever occurs earlier. When Company learns of an FMLA reason for leave after a leave has commenced under another of Company policies, Company will designate the leave as FMLA-qualifying from the commencement of the leave. Employees are required to cooperate in providing Company with information needed to make this determination.

Continuation of Group Health Benefits:

Company will maintain the employee’s coverage under a group health plan during the period of FMLA leave under the same terms and conditions as though the employee were actively working. During the leave, the employee will be required

to continue to make all premium payments that he/she otherwise would have had to make if actively employed. Where feasible, Company will advise the employee concerning the necessary arrangements for such payments prior to the commencement of the leave. If the employee fails to return to work following the expiration of FMLA leave for a reason other than a serious health condition or circumstances beyond the employee’s control, Company will be entitled to the repayment by the employee of any premiums paid by Company during the leave. Failure to make timely premium payments may result in the termination of coverage. An employee on FMLA leave should deliver payment of the employee’s portion of such premium to the HR Manager prior to the first work day of each month. Failure to make prompt payment of the employee’s portion of such premium may result in the loss of medical insurance coverage for the duration of the FMLA leave, but upon the employee’s return to work, the medical insurance will be restored as of the date that the employee returns. If the employee does not return from FMLA leave or returns to work, but does not remain an active employee for at least 30 days, Company may seek to recover the amount paid for such insurance premiums from the employee. An employee on FMLA leave shall be responsible for the payment of the full premium for all other insurance, pensions and other benefits. Failure of the employee to pay the entire premium for such items shall result in their lapse for the duration of the FMLA leave. If the employee returns from FMLA leave, all such insurance, pension and other benefits shall be restored without any break in service. An employee shall not accrue any credit toward vacation or other benefits based upon time worked for the time that he or she is on FMLA leave.

H. Return to Work / Fitness-for-Duty Certification: Consistent with Company practice, before returning to work following a medical leave due to the employee’s serious health condition, the employee will be required to present a fitness-forduty certification from his/her health care provider that the employee is medically able to resume work and to perform the essential functions of his or her job. If the date on which an employee is scheduled to return to work from an FMLA leave changes, the employee is required to give notice of the change, if foreseeable, to Company within two (2) business days of the change. Subject to the limitations below, an employee returning from FMLA leave will be restored to the position of employment held when the leave commenced or to an equivalent position. Job restoration may be denied if conditions unrelated to the FMLA leave have resulted in the elimination of the employee’s position, or if the employee qualifies as a “key employee” (generally the highest paid 10% of the workforce). Key employees may be denied job restoration if it would cause substantial and grievous economic injury to Company, in which case the key employee will be notified of this decision. In summary, upon expiration of a FMLA leave, an employee who returns to work shall be restored to the same or an equivalent job, if the employee shall have: • Called the HR Manager in accordance with terms above; • Furnished the HR Manager with proper certifications and recertifications in accordance with terms above; • Submitted to any second or third examination by a health care provider upon request of Company; • Furnished the HR Manager with a medical certification of the employee’s ability to return to work and to perform the essential functions of the job; and returned to work immediately upon

HR HANDBOOK FOR ACCESS MANAGEMENT

expiration of the FMLA leave. Failure to call the Human Resource Department weekly, to provide the required medical recertification or to return to work immediately upon expiration of a FMLA leave may result in termination of the employee. Failure to furnish a fitness-for-duty certification of the employeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to return to work and to perform the essential functions of the job may result in the delay of job restoration or the termination of the employee.

MILITARY SERVICE LEAVE An employee who is a member of the United States Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard, Reserves or Public Health Service will be granted an unpaid leave of absence for military service, training or related obligations in accordance with applicable law. Employees on military leave may substitute their accrued paid vacation time for unpaid leave. At the conclusion of the leave, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, an employee generally has a right to return to the same position he or she held prior to the leave or to a position with like seniority, status and pay that the employee is qualified to perform.

LEAVE FOR ACTIVE OR RESERVE DUTY Upon receipt of orders for active or reserve duty, an employee should notify his/her supervisor as soon as possible, and submit a copy of the military orders to his/her supervisor (unless he/she is unable to do so because of military necessity or it is otherwise impossible or unreasonable). Leave for Training and Other Related Obligations (e.g., fitness for service examinations) Employees will also be granted time off for military training (normally 14 days plus travel time) and other related obligations, such as for an examination to determine fitness to perform

service. Employees should advise their immediate supervisor and/or Sr. Management of their training schedule and/or other related obligations as far in advance as possible.

RETURN FROM MILITARY LEAVE Notice Required - Upon return from military service, an employee must provide notice of or submit an application for reemployment in accordance with the following schedule: 1. An employee who served for less than 31 days or who reported for a fitness examination, must provide notice of reemployment at the beginning of the first full regular scheduled work period that starts at least eight hours after the employee has returned from the location of service. 2. An employee who served for more than 30 days, but less than 181 days, must submit an application for reemployment no later than 14 days after completing his/her period of service, or, if this deadline is impossible or unreasonable through no fault of the employee, then on the next calendar day when submission becomes possible. 3. An employee who served for more than 180 days must submit an application for reemployment no later than 90 days after the completion of the uniformed service. 4. An employee who has been hospitalized or is recovering from an injury or illness incurred or aggravated while serving must report to the immediate supervisor (if the service was less than 31 days), or submit an application for reemployment (if the service was greater than 30 days), at the end of the necessary recovery period (but which may not exceed two years). Required Documentation - an employee whose military service was for more than 30 days must provide documentation within two weeks of his/

her return (unless such documentation does not yet exist or is not readily available) showing the following: (i) the application for reemployment is timely (i.e. submitted within the required time period); (ii) the period of service has not exceeded five years; and (iii) the employee received an honorable or general discharge.

JURY DUTY AND WITNESS APPEARANCE Access recognizes jury duty/witness appearance as a civic responsibility and an opportunity for meaningful service to our legal system. Accordingly, an employee who is summoned for jury duty or called to appear as a witness shall be excused from work for the days required to serve as a juror/witness. Upon receipt of the notice of jury duty/witness appearance, employees must present a copy of the summons to their immediate supervisor as soon as possible so that arrangements may be made for their absence.

If additional time off is needed due to the location of the funeral, permission from the immediate supervisor/manager is required.

UNPAID LEAVES OF ABSENCE Occasionally, for medical, personal or other reasons, employees may need to be temporarily released from the duties of their job with Access but may not wish to resign. Under certain circumstances an unpaid leave of absence may be available. Below are several types of unpaid leaves for which an employee may be eligible, but for which he/she must request in writing for approval.

SOCIAL SECURITY INSURANCE, BENEFITS, AND PAYMENTS

Proof of service must be submitted to the immediate supervisor upon completion of jury duty service or witness appearance.

The Federal Social Security Program provides employees with a variety of benefits including oldage retirement payment, death benefits, disability insurance and monthly income payments. Both Access and employees contribute to the Social Security account. An employee’s name on Access’s payroll records must be exactly the same as shown on his/her social security card to ensure that his/ her contributions are being recorded accurately to their account.

INSURANCE PREMIUM PAYMENT DURING LEAVES OF ABSENCE Employees are responsible for payment to Access for any portion of insurance for which they normally pay when at work. Failure to do this on a timely basis may result in loss of coverage and possible refusal by the insurance carrier to allow coverage to be reinstated. Any questions or requests for additional information should be directed to the immediate supervisor.
