Weapons BJ’s complies with all state and local laws in the communities we serve. As a result, we abide by state laws that permit open carry of firearms or other weapons by our guests. Where these laws do not exist, openly carrying firearms or other dangerous weapons in our restaurants is prohibited. This policy exists out of respect for the safety of our team members, our managers, and our guests. In the event of a threatening situation or disturbance, a manager must immediately call law enforcement and must notify the restaurant’s Area Vice President/Director of Operations and Director of Risk Management as soon as possible thereafter. All Company team members are prohibited from carrying a weapon while in the course and scope of performing their job for the Company, whether or not they are on Company property at the time, and whether or not they are licensed to carry a weapon. Team members may not carry a weapon covered by this policy while performing any task on the Company’s behalf or at any Company-sponsored functions, such as parties or picnics. Company property covered by this policy includes, without limitation, all Companyowned, managed or leased buildings and surrounding areas, such as sidewalks, walkways, driveways and parking lots under the Company’s ownership or control. Company vehicles are covered by this policy at all times, regardless of whether they are on Company property at the time. BJ’s prohibits all guests who enter Company premises from carrying a handgun, firearm or prohibited weapon of any kind, regardless of whether the person is licensed to carry the weapon or not, unless otherwise authorized by state or local law. This policy applies to all Company team members, including temporary team members, independent contractors working with the Company, visitors and guests on Company property, regardless of whether or not they are licensed to carry a concealed weapon. The only exception to this policy is police officers, security guards or other persons who have been given consent by the Company to carry a weapon on the premises. Prohibited weapons include, but are not limited to, any form of weapon or explosive restricted under federal, state and local regulation. This includes all firearms, knives, or other weapons covered by law. Legal chemical dispensing devices which are sold for personal protection, such as pepper spray, are not prohibited weapons. However, such devices must be stored with the team member’s personal property and may not be carried with the team member while on-duty at a restaurant or Home Office. Confidential and Proprietary 52 January 2012
The Company reserves the right to conduct searches of any person, vehicle, or object that enters onto Company property in order to enforce this policy. Company management or local authorities may conduct searches. Items that may be searched include, but are not limited to, lockers, purses, backpacks, bags, clothing, personal vehicles parked on Company property, and any other item in which a weapon may be hidden. To the extent the search is requested by Company management and the team member is present, the team member may refuse the search; however, such refusal may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination from employment for refusal to cooperate. Work Area Maintenance All team members are expected to keep their work areas clean, organized and safe. All job functions have additional side work and /or cleaning duties that must be maintained in order to keep the restaurant looking great for every guest. Common areas such as break rooms, locker areas and restrooms must be kept clean and safe by the entire team. Don’t wait for someone to ask you to pitch in. Plan to do your share as part of the team. Workplace Violence Security and safety in the workplace is every team member’s responsibility. In order to maintain and effectively administer this policy, the support and participation of Company team members is mandatory. The Company is committed to providing a workplace that is free from acts of violence or threats of violence. Such conduct will not be tolerated whether actual or threatened against co-workers, visitors, or any other persons who are either on our premises or who have contact with team members in the course of their duties. Team members must report to their manager the incident witnessed, or discovered in any way, involving an actual or threatened act of violence. An investigation of the report will commence and all necessary remedial action will be taken by the Company. Remedial action may include disciplinary action up to and including immediate termination of employment. Potential and actual workplace safety or security dangers must also be reported to a manager. Team members are required to report any and all events or situations that violate this policy and may do so without fear of retaliation of any kind. Additional information concerning the safety and anti-violence policies of the Company is provided in the Company’s Injury and Illness Prevention Confidential and Proprietary 53 January 2012
