D. Potential time or performance impacts while employees participate in training

Prior to receiving training, objectives should be identified, which clearly state what the participants
are expected to know and/or to do afterwards. These objectives will be agreed upon through
interactions between the employee and a Company Director.

Training records, identifying the following information, participants, subjects, objectives, training
provider, date, costs and acknowledgement receipt of training will be retained on employees'
personnel files. Employees should also keep a summary of their training records for tracking, reporting
and planning purposes.

Training is generally conducted during paid working hours.

3.7.2 Responsibilities
Employees are responsible for meeting the training objectives by becoming actively involved during
training and providing evaluation immediately afterwards.
Company Directors are responsible for completing training and development needs together with the
employee. They are also responsible for planning and budgeting to meet individual learning needs. A
Company Director is responsible for seeking the agreed upon training, either through internal or
external resources.

3.7.3 Eligibility for training
To be eligible for training, employees must;
a. Be a Company employee for the duration of the training
b. Have completed their probationary period, unless waived by the Company
c. Not be under disciplinary action during training, unless waived by a Company Director
d. Maintain job standards or minimum of average performance, unless waived by a Company
Director
e. Participate in a regular review during and/or after training with a Company Director

Inductions and Health and Safety Training are excluded from the above criteria.

3.7.4 Conditions
Training and development is deemed to be an investment with an expected return to both the
employee and the
Company. When an employee does not receive the required standard, the Company may discontinue
any further planned training. When an employee participates in training without prior approval,
approval and reimbursement is not automatic. All participants attending approved courses must
complete and return the relevant documentation to a Company Director.

3.8 MAKING A PROTECTED DISCLOSURE
The company is committed to ensuring that employees are aware of their rights and responsibilities
in relation to disclosures.
