3.20.5 Employee Responsibilities
The Company insists that all employees:
a. Exercise reasonable care when driving
b. Maintain their vehicles in a clean, roadworthy condition and in good operating order.
c. Inform Management of vehicle maintenance issues including service requirements based on mileage
thresholds, engine warning lights; system warning lights, worn consumables, etc.
d. Adhere to all motoring regulations and conditions
e. Adhere to the regulations covered under the Road Traffic Act, 2002
f. Familiarise themselves with the Penalty Points System and the Road Traffic Act, 2002.
Any employee who wishes to appeal an imposition under the Penalty Points System should inform a MANAGER
before any appeal is lodged with the relevant authorities/court.
It is the responsibility of employee’s assigned Company vehicles to maintain necessary records in order to
identify other drivers of their car who may have been responsible for a road traffic offence affecting them or
their vehicle. It is the employee's duty to inform a MANAGER immediately of any accidents, which occur
including any penalty points endorsed on their driving licence. Any driver who loses their driving licence or
receives an endorsement must immediately advise the Company, as this may have to be disclosed to the
Insurance Company.
3.21 COMMUNICATIONS
We believe that it is essential that you are kept informed about any Company matter, including its plans for the
future, which may directly affect you. We also expect and welcome feedback from you, and we have a variety
of communication channels to encourage a two-way exchange of information.
3.21.1 One-to-Ones
Individual issues concerning employment conditions will be handled individually by a MANAGER on a one-to-
one basis, as part of normal day-to-day work.
3.21.2 Staff Meetings
Sharing business info, planning together etc. apply to all employees and are held on a continuous basis.
3.21.3 E-Mails
If you have access to Company email remember to check for e-mail on a regular basis and at least once a day.
Information on Company business may be disseminated in this way.
3.22 ALCOHOL AND DRUGS
Alcohol, except that used for Company-organised social events, is not allowed on Company premises. Employees
believed to be under the influence of alcohol whilst on Company premises will be subject to disciplinary action.
Drugs (apart from those prescribed by a Medical Practitioner) are not allowed on Company premises or at
Company functions. If there is a reasonable belief that an employee is in possession of, or under the influence
of illegal drugs, he or she will be liable to suspension and/or dismissal. An Garda Siochana will also be notified.
If there are reasonable grounds for suspecting that an employee is in violation of this policy, MY CLINIC may
require drugs and or alcohol testing at MY CLINIC expense.
