Please note that this Guidebook does not create a contract of employment or any right or expectation of continued employment. These programs may be changed or canceled by TGHR at any time for any

reason without notice.

Welcome! The following information will help you create a successful working relationship with That’s Good HR (TGHR).

It is important that you understand that TGHR (not the company to which you are assigned to work) is your employer of record. ALL employment related decisions will go through TGHR, so be sure to stay in close communication with us throughout your assignment(s). Notify TGHR as soon as possible should you encounter any problems or concerns on an assignment, or if the status of the assignment changes.

Examples of when to contact TGHR:• To schedule a job interview during

assignment hours

• Overtime: Before working overtime, you will need permission from the client and TGHR.

• Offer of full-time employment from the client company

• Assignment Ends: Get in touch with TGHR near the end of your current assignment so that we may consider you for a new assignment.

During your assignment, you are expected to:• Report to work at the agreed time, be

dressed professionally and ready to work. Keep lunch and break periods to the designated times. Follow all client company rules, and meet all expectations.

• Contact TGHR with as much advance notice as possible if you are going to be late or cannot work. We will inform the client of any changes in your availability or status. Our office voicemail is available 24 hours (317.469.4141 ext. 500).

All employment decisions are made without considering any of these characteristics.

Anti-Discrimination, Anti-Harassment and Professional Conduct PolicyIn order for all employees to enjoy a work environment free from all forms of discrimination, TGHR prohibits the harassment or discrimination against any employee or applicant, regardless of gender, by managers, supervisors, other employees, or non-employees. It is contrary to our policy for any employee to be subjected to harassment or discrimination in the workplace because of race, color, religion, gender, gender identification, sexual orientation, national origin/ancestry, age, disability, veteran status, marital status, citizenship, or any other legally-protected status. Harassment in the workplace negatively affects morale, motivation, and job performance. It is inappropriate, offensive, and will not be tolerated. With this policy, TGHR prohibits not only unlawful discrimination and harassment, but also other unprofessional and discourteous actions. No employee in the company is exempt from the policy.

A) Sexual HarassmentTGHR strictly prohibits all forms of sexual harassment. No employee should be subjected to unsolicited and unwelcome sexual advances or conduct, either verbal or physical. Prohibited harassment may

include, but is not necessarily limited to:

• Unwelcome verbal behavior such as comments, suggestions, jokes, or derogatory remarks which are based on sex. This would include verbal innuendos, suggestive comments, off-color jokes, discussing sexual activities, commenting on physical attributes, offensive gestures or sounds, and repeated unwelcome flirtation.

• Derogatory or sexually suggestive pictures, cartoons, drawings, objects, or graphic commentary

• Physical behavior such as pats, squeezes, grabbing, groping, intentionally brushing against someone’s body, unnecessary touching, impeding or blocking normal work or movement, leering, or obscene gestures

• Unwanted sexual advances; pressure for or requests for sexual favors; and/or making or threatening reprisals as a result of a negative response to harassment

• Inappropriate or adverse treatment because an employee does not fit a gender stereotype

• Threats, physical aggression, intimidation, or hostility based on sex even if not sexual in nature

Sexual harassment consists of any unwelcome behavior of a sexual nature which unreasonably interferes with an employee’s work performance or creates a hostile work environment. It is also sexual harassment when submission to sexual advances is a condition of a job benefit (e.g. employment, continued employment, fair treatment, promotions, etc.).

B) Other Forms of HarassmentTGHR also prohibits harassment based on race, color, religion, gender, gender identification, sexual orientation, national origin/ancestry, age, disability, veteran status, marital status, citizenship, or any other legally-protected status. Such harassment may include, but is not necessarily limited to, threats, derogatory remarks, jokes, epithets, slurs, negative stereotyping or threatening, intimidating, or hostile acts which relate to these characteristics. It may also include offensive gestures or sounds, or displays of offensive pictures or cartoons related to any of these characteristics. Finally, it may also include physical aggression, intimidation, or hostility directed at persons because of such characteristics.

policies & procedures

C) Complaint ProcedureAny employee who believes that he or she has suffered sexual harassment or any other form of harassment or discrimination should report the conduct to an owner of TGHR at (317) 469-4141 so that prompt action may be taken. Further, any employee who is aware of any instance of harassment or discrimination concerning any other employee should report the conduct according to this policy as soon as possible. Do not allow an inappropriate situation to continue by not reporting it, regardless of who is creating the situation.

All complaints will be investigated promptly, thoroughly, impartially, and in as discreet and confidential a fashion as reasonably possible. However, complete anonymity cannot be guaranteed. While TGHR will take reasonable steps to maintain the confidentiality of the complainant, a fair and effective investigation may necessitate the disclosure of names of the complaining parties and witnesses.

Any individual who has been found to have harassed or discriminated against an employee in violation of this policy will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

D) TGHR Prohibits All Forms of RetaliationTGHR strictly prohibits any form of retaliation against employees who exercise their rights to raise complaints about violations of this policy or provide information related to such complaints.

No person will be adversely affected in their employment as a result of bringing good faith complaints of harassment or discrimination or truthfully participating in an investigation. Any employee who feels that he or she has been the subject of retaliation or adverse or different treatment as a result of having complained about prohibited discrimination or harassment or having participated in an investigation should immediately bring the matter to TGHR’s attention through this same complaint procedure.

We trust that employees of TGHR will act responsibly to maintain a pleasant working environment, free of discrimination and harassment, allowing each employee to perform to his/her maximum potential. TGHR encourages any employee to bring questions he or she may have regarding sexual harassment or other types of harassment or discrimination to TGHR at (317) 469-4141.
