Team Member Conduct and Work Rules 600

In order to maintain the excellent reputation we have earned with our members and to provide the best possible work environment for you and your fellow Team Members , we expect you to follow the rules of conduct set forth in this policy .
Performing with Integrity and Honesty
Any time you are interacting with someone connected to our workplace , their perception of your words , actions , and behaviors is more important than your intent . As a result , we expect you to perform with the highest level of integrity possible and to be honest and fair when you interact with members , management , and other Team Members .
If you are ever in doubt about whether a particular course of action is appropriate , seek guidance from Human Resources .
Treating Others with Respect
Treat all members with respect and demonstrate genuine concern for their needs , because one bad experience can ruin the relationship . Consideration , respect and courtesy also play important roles in maintaining positive and productive working relationships with your supervisors and other Team Members . Everyone is expected to communicate and work in a manner that is respectful to others .
