EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
Kinetix maintains a policy of non-discrimination in employment. We provide equal employment opportunity to all employees and applicants without regard to age, race, creed, color, religion, national origin, sex, veteran status, marital status, or any other protected status in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws.
Moreover, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Kinetix does not discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities in any aspect of the employment relationship, and does provide reasonable accommodation as required by law to otherwise qualified employees or applicants with disabilities.
This policy governs all areas of employment at Kinetix including recruiting, hiring, training, assignments, promotions, compensation, benefits, discipline and termination.
Any employee who violates this Policy will be subject to discipline, up to and including termination of employment.
Discriminatory Harassment
It is the policy of Kinetix to maintain a working environment free from discriminatory harassment. Any form of unlawful discrimination, including harassment based on age, race, creed, color, religion, national origin, sex, status as a disabled veteran or veteran of the Vietnam era, marital status, disability or any other protected status in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws, is strictly prohibited. This policy extends not only to prohibiting unwelcome sexual advances and offensive sexual jokes, innuendos, or behaviors, but also prohibits offensive conduct related to or based upon factors other than sex. Any employee found to have engaged in any form of discriminatory harassment in the course of his/her employment will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.
This policy applies anywhere employees are functioning on behalf of Kinetix regardless of whether it is at a Kinetix facility or in a different location.
Reporting Harassment
Any employee who believes that harassment has occurred should immediately report the incident to the CEO or any Manager. Kinetix takes matters of harassment very seriously and will conduct a prompt investigation of all complaints and take appropriate action based upon that investigation. This includes any incident on a Client site, which will be handled in the same manner but will also include the Client’s HR. Absolute confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. However, every effort will be made to handle all complaints and investigations with as much discretion and confidentiality as circumstances permit. Kinetix will not tolerate any retaliation against any employee for making a complaint, bringing inappropriate conduct to Kinetix’s attention, or for participating in an investigation of an alleged act of harassment.
