THE SUBMISSION TO FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION IS AN<br />

EFFECTIVE WAIVER BY THE COMPANY AND THE <strong>TEAM</strong> <strong>MEMBER</strong><br />

OF ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND/OR TO FILE A LAWSUIT OR<br />

OTHER CIVIL ACTION TO RESOLVE EMPLOYMENT DISPUTES.<br />

Attendance and Punctuality<br />

All team members are expected to be regular and punctual in attendance.<br />

Any unexcused tardiness or absences cause problems for your fellow team<br />

members and managers and affect your restaurant’s ability to execute its<br />

functions. Please notify your immediate supervisor as early as possible if<br />

you are unable to work or if you will be late.<br />

Excessive absenteeism or tardiness (unless excused by law) will not be<br />

tolerated. Continuing patterns of absences or tardiness, regardless of the<br />

exact number of days, may warrant disciplinary action, up to and including<br />

termination of employment, in the discretion of the Company. Please<br />

contact your supervisor for specific information regarding call-in procedures<br />

at your restaurant.<br />

posting authorized work-related notices or for notices which must be posted<br />

pursuant to federal, state and local law. From time to time, special notices<br />

and information for team members will be posted by the Company on the<br />

bulletin boards or in team member break areas. Bulletin boards are not to be<br />

used for materials other than described above. Please check the boards and<br />

team member break areas regularly for such notices.<br />
