DIVERSIFIED EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK




        EMPLOYMENT CATEGORIES
        It is the intent of Diversified to clarify the definitions of employment classifications so that all employees understand their
        employment status and benefits eligibility.

        Each employee’s position  is designated as either nonexempt or exempt from  federal and state wage and hour laws.
        Nonexempt employees are entitled to overtime pay under the specific provisions of federal and state wage and hour laws.
        Exempt employees are excluded from such provisions and are therefore not eligible to receive overtime pay. An employee's
        nonexempt or exempt classification may be changed only upon written notification by Diversified management.
        In addition to the above categories, each employee will belong to one of the following other employment categories:

            •   Regular  employees are  those full-time  employees who are  not  in a  temporary status and  who  are regularly
               scheduled to work 40 or more hours per week. They are eligible for Diversified's benefit package, subject to the
               terms, conditions and limitations of each benefit program.
            •   Part-time employees are those employees who are not in a temporary status and who are regularly scheduled to
               work less than 40 hours per week. While they do receive all legally mandated benefits (such as Social Security and
               workers' compensation  insurance), they  may be  eligible for selected  other benefit programs,  unless they are
               regularly scheduled to work at least 30 hours per week.
            •   Temporary employees are those who are hired as interim replacements, to temporarily supplement the work force,
               or to assist in the completion of a specific project. Employment assignments in this category are of a limited duration.
               Employment beyond any initially stated period  does not  in any way  imply a  change  in employment status.
               Temporary employees retain that status unless and until notified of a change. While temporary employees receive
               all legally mandated benefits (such as Social Security and workers' compensation insurance), they are ineligible for
               all of Diversified's other benefit programs when working less than one 1,000 hours annually.


        ACCESS TO PERSONNEL FILES

        Diversified maintains a personnel file on each employee. The personnel file may include such information as the employee's
        job application, resume, records of training, documentation of  performance appraisals and salary increases, and other
        employment records.
        Personnel files are the property of Diversified, and access to the information therein is restricted. Generally, only supervisors
        and management personnel of Diversified who have a legitimate reason to review information in a file can do so.

        Those who wish to review their own personnel file should submit a written request to the PeopleTeam via PeopleCentral at
        PeopleCentral@onediversified.com. Requests will be reviewed and addressed on a case-by-case basis.


        EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATIONS

        All requests for information from  outside sources regarding past or present employees must be referred to The Work
        Number. If you need a verification, simply provide the verifier with Diversified’s Employer Code: 27143; your social security
        number and direct them to: www.theworknumber.com. Responses to such inquiries will confirm only dates of employment
        and position(s) held. For further requests that The Work Number cannot provide, please submit a ticket to the PeopleTeam
        via PeopleCentral at PeopleCentral@onediversified.com
