3.22 ALCOHOL AND DRUGS
Only alcohol used for cooking or for sale in the restaurant is allowed on Company premises. Employees
believed to be under the influence of alcohol whilst on Company premises or on duty 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.
3.23 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 a Manager.
3.24 NOTICES/POSTERS
Notices or posters may not be displayed on or within Company premises without the prior permission
of a Manager. Similarly, documents or notices, which are not directly relevant to work, may not be
circulated without prior permission.
3.25 EXPENSES
If you incur any expenditure on behalf of the Company, you will be reimbursed, provided that the
expenditure has been wholly, exclusively and reasonably incurred on Company business and has been
approved by a Manager. Any claims for reimbursements of business expenses should be made as
soon as possible, such claims must be accompanied by VAT receipts. Original receipts should be
attached to the claim (i.e. credit card receipts are not acceptable). VAT receipts are expected for all
expenditure.
3.25.1 Purchasing materials from the Company
Employees seeking to purchase materials or equipment from or through the Company must do so
only with the expressed permission of a Manager.
All money outstanding must be paid either within 30 days of receiving the materials or, by special
prior agreement with a Manager only, be deducted in stages from your wages.
The company reserves the right to refuse to an employee request to purchase materials based on
the overall value of the order and the potential liability to the Company.
3.26 LEAVING THE COMPANY
3.26.1 Notice Periods
Notice must be given in writing to a Manager, and contractual notice periods must be observed. For
the majority of employees, this will be one week if you are still in probation and the minimum statutory
notice periods apply once you have passed your probation.
3.26.2 Leaving Date
Your letter must state your last date of employment and, if different, your last actual working day. The
Company reserves the right not to allow holiday to be offset against the notice period.
