compromise the situation.
Employees shall not make statements or disclosures knowing they are
false or in reckless disregard of truth. Such false reports may be cause
for disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.
Anti-Discrimination and Anti-Harassment Policy
The Company is committed to a work environment in which
all individuals are treated with respect and dignity. Each individual has
the right to work in a professional atmosphere that promotes equal
employment opportunities and prohibits unlawful discriminatory
practices, including harassment. Therefore, the Company expects that

activities or discussions. In other words, no one should make the
mistake of engaging in discrimination or exclusion to avoid allegations
of harassment. The law and the policies of the Company prohibit

characteristic, with regard to terms, conditions, privileges and
