JOINING OUR ORGANISATION

A) PERSONAL INFORMATION

Our decision to offer you employment took into account the personal information you provided
to us on the basis that it was correct and complete. In the event of such information proving
to be untrue or misleading, we reserve the right to terminate any employment contract offered.

B) PROBATIONARY PERIOD

You join us on an initial probationary period of six months. This does not prejudice our right to
dismiss in accordance with the notice provisions contained in your individual Statement of
Main Terms of Employment (form SMT), or without notice for reasons of gross misconduct,
should this be necessary. During this period your work performance and general suitability
will be assessed and, if it is satisfactory, your employment will continue. However, if your
work performance is not up to the required standard or you are considered to be generally
unsuitable we may either take remedial action or terminate your employment, without
recourse to the disciplinary procedure. At the end of your probationary period you will again
be assessed and, if satisfactory, you will become a member of our regular staff. If you have
not reached the required standard we may either extend the probationary period in order that
remedial action can be taken or terminate your employment. At any stage during your
probationary period the Company reserves the right to address disciplinary misconduct
matters through probationary review assessments. We reserve the right to bypass, at our
discretion, any step in the disciplinary process in view of your probationary status or to
terminate your contract with notice, if we feel that the severity of the action warrants it. We
will be fair in the application of such discretion. Any continuous period of absence of four
weeks or more will suspend your probationary period until your return to work.

C) JOB DESCRIPTION

You have been provided with a job description of the position to which you have been
appointed but amendments may be made to your job description from time to time in relation
to our changing needs and your own ability. It may be necessary for you to perform
alternative duties within the business.

D) INDUCTION

At the start of your employment with our Company you are required to attend/complete an
induction session during which all our policies and procedures (including Health and Safety)
will be explained. Information relating to these will be given to you at the induction.

E) EMPLOYEE TRAINING

At the commencement of your employment you will receive training for your specific job, and
as your employment progresses your skills may be extended to encompass new job activities
within the business. Any training needs should be raised with your Department Manager.

F) TRAINING AGREEMENT

The Company has a policy of encouraging its employees to undertake training in order to
further their career within the Company. This will include assisting with costs of the training.
However, in the event of termination of employment, for whatever reason, the Company will
seek reimbursement of the costs in line with the Training Agreement. Further details are
available separately.

G) PERFORMANCE AND REVIEW

It is our policy to conduct annual appraisals and will endeavour to meet with you to discuss
your performance as well as your role within the Company.
