WORKPLACE GUIDELINES
Attendance in the Workplace
As an employee of DELFI, you are expected to be punctual and regular in attendance every day
that you are scheduled to work. Unexcused tardiness or absences can cause problems for your
co-workers and your manager. When you are absent, your assigned work must be performed by
others. You are expected to report to work as scheduled and on time. If you will be late or absent,
you should provide as much advance notice as reasonably possible.
Excessive unexcused absenteeism or tardiness, providing false information or abuse of leave laws
will not be tolerated. Generally, if you fail to report for work without any notification to your
manager and your absence continues for a period of 3 days, DELFI will consider that you have
voluntarily abandoned or quit your employment.
Absences protected by local, state and federal law do not count as a violation of the punctuality
and attendance policy.
Remote Employees
Typically, working remotely provides employees with an opportunity to work from an alternative
work environment instead of in the primary location of the Company. Working remotely must
be approved by your manager. You and your manager must inform the People team of any work
location change and employees are obligated to self-report tax withholding changes due to
change in work location. DELFI retains the right in its sole discretion to designate positions that
are appropriate for working remotely and approve employees for working remotely. Working
remotely does not change the conditions of employment or required compliance with all
Company policies and procedures. The Company reserves the right to change or terminate the
remote worker’s work site at any time, without cause or advance notice, or to request that an
employee working remotely come into the office at any time and for any reason. Your ability to
work remotely rests in the sole discretion of the Company. Working remotely is a privilege and
may not be appropriate for all employees. Remote workers are solely responsible for ensuring
the safety of their alternative work environment. Remote workers are liable for any injuries that
occur to third parties at or around their alternative work environment. Unless otherwise agreed
upon, hours and days of work for remote employees will remain the same as if they were working
in the office. Employees agree to apply themselves during regular work hours. Working remotely
is not intended as a substitute for childcare or care for another adult. If a child or adult needs
care during work time, another responsible individual is expected to be present.
Remote workers are expected to attend all required meetings.
Social Media Acceptable Use
DELFI encourages employees to share information with co-workers and with those outside the
Company for the purposes of gathering information, generating new ideas, and learning from the
work of others. Social Media (as defined below) provides inexpensive, informal, and timely ways
to participate in an exchange of ideas and information. However, information posted on a
