<strong>Team</strong> members are cautioned to carefully consider the demands that additional work activity will create<br />
before accepting outside employment. Outside employment will not be considered an excuse for poor<br />
job performance, absenteeism, tardiness, leaving early, refusal to travel or refusal to work overtime or<br />
different hours. If <strong>MMI</strong> determines that a team member’s outside work interferes with performance,<br />
the team member may be asked to terminate the outside employment.<br />
<strong>Team</strong> members who have accepted outside employment may not use paid sick leave to work on the<br />
outside job. Fraudulent use of sick leave will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.<br />
Attendance and Punctuality<br />
Vacation and holidays must be scheduled with one’s supervisor in advance. Sick leave may be used in<br />
the case of emergency or sudden illness without prior scheduling. Patterns of absenteeism or tardiness<br />
may result in discipline even if the team member has not yet exhausted available paid time off.<br />
Absences due to illnesses or injuries that qualify under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) will not<br />
be counted against a team member’s attendance record. Medical documentation within the guidelines<br />
of the FMLA may be required in these instances.<br />
Not reporting to work and not calling to report the absence is a no‐call/no‐show and is a serious matter.<br />
The first instance of a no call/no show will result in a written warning. The second separate offense may<br />
result in termination of employment with no additional disciplinary steps. A no call/no show lasting<br />
three days may be considered job abandonment and may be deemed a team member’s voluntary<br />
resignation of employment.<br />
Attire and Grooming<br />
While your smile is the most important thing you can wear to work, it is important for all team members<br />
to project a professional image while at work by being appropriately attired. <strong>MMI</strong> team members are<br />
expected to be neat, clean and well‐groomed while on the job. Clothing must be consistent with the<br />
standards for a business environment and must be appropriate to the type of work being performed.<br />
<strong>MMI</strong> will provide uniforms to certain team members where applicable. Appropriate uniforms will be<br />
issued on a loan‐type basis to the new team members as soon as possible after hiring. The team<br />
member must sign the uniform policy and receipt forms. Unserviceable uniforms will be replaced on a<br />
direct exchange (one‐for‐one) basis. Additionally, <strong>MMI</strong> realizes that a clean and neat uniform can make<br />
the most important first impression of quality and efficiency on our guests. Therefore, the company will<br />
compensate non‐exempt team members issued uniforms for laundering services at the rate of $0.10 per<br />
hour. This is included in the hourly wage paid by the facility.<br />
<strong>MMI</strong> has a deep concern for the safety and security of all our guests and team members. Therefore, to<br />
help insure our team members’ safety, selected job positions require that team members only wear<br />
shoes sold by “Suregrip” while team members are in any of these positions. All other team members<br />
are expected to provide their own shoes in styles specified by management. For team members that are<br />
required to wear “Suregrip”, <strong>MMI</strong> will pay $40.00 toward the first pair and one replacement pair every<br />
twelve (12) months.<br />
