Any employee who wishes to appeal an imposition under the Penalty Points System should inform the
               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 their 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 their Manager, as this may have
               to be disclosed to the Insurance Company.

               3.19 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.

               3.19.1 One-to-Ones
               Individual issues concerning employment conditions will be handled individually by your Manager or
               the Chief Executive on a one-to-one basis, as part of normal day-to-day work.

               3.19.2 Staff Meetings
               Sharing business info, planning together etc. apply to all employees and are held on a continuous
               basis.

               3.19.3 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.

               3.20 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 or where the smell of alcohol is detectable
               from an employee’s breath 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.

               3.21 COLLECTIONS
               If you wish to take up a collection, sell raffle tickets etc. within the Company, for whatever purpose,
               you must first obtain the approval of the Manager.

               3.22 NOTICES/POSTERS
               Notices or posters may not be displayed on or within Company premises without the prior permission
               of the Manager. Similarly, documents or notices, which are not directly relevant to work, may not be
               circulated without prior permission.
