your network of relationships as potential candidates for open positions at LHD. When you refer someone, who meets the requirements of one of our positions and we hire them, LHD pays a $1,000 referral bonus. Here are the parameters of the program: When referring a candidate, you can use one of the following three methods: o Have the candidate send their resume to Human Resources specifically indicating they have been referred by you. o Have the candidate send their resume directly to you and then send it to Human Resources noting the candidate is a referral from you. o Provide Human Resources with the name and contact information for the candidate you are referring, and Human Resources will reach out directly to obtain a copy of their resume for consideration. The referral must represent the candidate’s first contact with LHD. Temporary employees, interns and former employees are not eligible candidates for referral. Once someone you refer is hired and completes 90 calendar days of service, you will receive the referral bonus. Referral bonuses are subject to all standard deductions and payroll withholding. If two employees refer the same candidate, the employee who referred the candidate first will be the only one eligible for the referral bonus. There is no cap on the number of referrals you can make or the number of bonuses you may receive. The Executive Committee reserves the right to modify or discontinue the program. All changes will be clearly communicated. Time Away From Work Paid Time Off PTO LHD recognizes that employees have diverse needs for time off from work and utilizes PTO to provide a flexible approach for employees to manage their individual needs. PTO provides employees with a single allocation of time off that can be used for vacation, personal or family illness or other needs of the Employee’s choice. Employees are accountable and responsible for managing their own PTO balance to allow for adequate reserves if they need to cover vacation, illness or disability, emergencies or other situations that require time off from work. Time off that is not covered by this PTO policy, and for which separate policies exist include company paid holidays, bereavement leave and leave for jury duty. All regular full-time employees accrue PTO on a calendar year basis in accordance with our bimonthly payroll cycle as follows: BACK TO TABLE OF CONTENTS | 17
