Disciplinary Process

ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD’s discipline policy and procedures are designed to provide a structured corrective action process to improve and prevent a recurrence of undesirable employee behavior and performance issues. It has been designed to be consistent with ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD’s cultural values, Human Resources (HR) best practices, and employment laws.ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD reserves the right to combine or skip steps depending on the facts of each situation and the nature of the offense. The level of disciplinary intervention may also vary.Some factors that will be considered are whether the offense is repeated despite coaching,counseling, or training, the employee’s work record, and the impact the conduct and performance issues have on the organization.

Step 1: Verbal Warning and Counseling

This initial step allows the immediate supervisor to schedule a meeting with an employee to address an existing performance, conduct or attendance issue. The supervisor should discuss with the employee the nature of the problem or the violation of company policies and procedures. The supervisor must clearly describe expectations and the steps the employee must take to improve performance or resolve the problem.

Step 2: Formal Written Warning

If the employee does not promptly correct any performance, conduct or attendance issues identified in Step 1, a written warning will become formal documentation of the performance,conduct, or attendance issues and consequences. The employee will sign a copy of the document to acknowledge receipt and understanding of the formal warning. During Step 2, the immediate supervisor and HR representative will meet with the employee to review any additional incidents or information about the performance, conduct or attendance issues as well as any prior relevant corrective action plans. Management will outline the consequences for the employee of his or her continued failure to meet performance or conduct expectations.A formal performance improvement plan (PIP) requiring the employee’s immediate and sustained corrective action will be issued after a Step 2 meeting. A warning outlining that the employee may be subject to additional discipline up to and including termination if immediate

and sustained corrective action is not taken may also be included in the written warning.

Step 3: Suspension and Final Written Warning

There may be performance, conduct, or safety incidents so problematic and harmful that the most effective action may be temporarily removing the employee from the workplace. When immediate action is necessary to ensure the safety of the employee or others, the immediate supervisor may suspend the employee pending the results of an investigation. Suspensions recommended as part of the normal progression of this progressive discipline policy and procedure are subject to approval from a next-level manager and HR.

Step 4: Recommendation for Termination of Employment

The last step in the progressive discipline procedure is a recommendation to terminate employment. Generally, ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD will try to exercise the progressive nature of this policy by first providing warnings, a final written warning or suspension from the workplace before proceeding to a recommendation to terminate employment. However, ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD reserves the right to combine and skip steps depending on the circumstances of each situation and the nature of the offense. Furthermore, employees may be terminated without prior notice or disciplinary action.

Management’s recommendation to terminate employment must be approved by HR and the supervisor’s immediate manager. Final approval may be required from the CEO.

Performance and Conduct Issues Not Subject to Progressive Discipline

Illegal behavior is not subject to progressive discipline, and potentially, such behavior is subject to be reported to local law enforcement authorities. Theft, substance abuse, intoxication, fighting and other acts of violence at work are grounds for immediate termination.

Enforcement

ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD Management, under the explicit authority granted by the company CEO,retains the authority and responsibility to monitor and enforce compliance with this Policy and other policies, standards, procedures, and guidelines. Monitoring activities may be conducted on an ongoing basis or a random basis whenever deemed necessary by Management and may require investigating the use of the Company’s information resources. The company reserves the right to review any and all communications and activities without notice.

ATLAS CO-PILOT LTD will take appropriate precautions to ensure that monitoring activities are limited to the extent necessary to determine whether the communications or activities violate Company policies, standards, procedures, and guidelines or per normal business processing performance or quality activities.

Violating the controls established in this Policy is prohibited and will be appropriately addressed.Disciplinary actions for violations may include verbal and/or written warnings, suspension,termination,and/orother legal remedies and will be consistent with our published HR standards and practices.
