When your personal conduct on or off the job adversely affects your performance, that of other
Associates, or the legitimate interests of Cerner, it may become a concern to Cerner. Associates
who are found to have engaged in unlawful or unethical behavior are subject to corrective action,
up to and including termination of employment.
Work Environment
Cerner strives to provide all Associates with a healthy, safe and productive work environment.
Cerner has established an Equal Employment Opportunity (“EEO”) Policy and an Anti-
Harassment Policy to establish a positive work environment free from unlawful discrimination
and harassment. Cerner has also established a Substance Abuse Policy, which prohibits the
unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession or use of a controlled substance, to
provide a workplace free of drugs; a Tobacco-Free Workplace Policy, to provide a workplace
free of tobacco products; an Alcohol Consumption Policy, to provide guidance for Cerner
sponsored events where alcohol is served and to encourage Associates who choose to drink
alcohol to do so responsibly; a Policy on the Use of Mobile Phones and Electronic Devices While
Driving, which requires Associates to follow federal, state and local laws regarding the use of
electronic devices while driving and to follow the guidelines set forth in the policy should an
Associate reasonably determine it is safe under the circumstances to use a mobile phone while
driving; and, a Weapons Policy, which prohibits certain types of weapons from being brought
onto Cerner property, to provide a safe environment for Cerner’s Associates and others visiting
Cerner. These policies are set forth on myCerner. If you believe these policies are being
violated, you should report such violations as directed by the specific policy or as set forth above
in “Communications Channels.”
Some other activities that are prohibited because they clearly are not conducive to a good work
environment are: (1) threats and (2) violent behavior.
