Media Contact

Associates should not speak to the media in regard to Bunkhouse properties without contacting the
Communications Director. All media inquiries should be directed to the Communications Director.
SOLICITATION/DISTRIBUTION

Solicitation for any cause during working time is not permitted. Solicitation includes requesting donations,
sponsorship, or purchase of goods or services. “Working time” includes the working time of both you doing the
soliciting and the employee to whom the soliciting is being directed. Working time does not include break periods,
meal periods, or any other specified periods during the workday when employees are properly not engaged in
performing their work tasks.
You are not permitted to distribute non-company literature in work areas at any time. Distribution of materials is
defined as giving out any type of literature or pamphlets, surveys, opinion polls, gambling/football pools, product
samples, tickets, merchandise, or other materials unrelated to the performance of assigned work by employees.

Persons who are not employed by the company may not solicit or distribute advertising material, handbills, or printed
or written literature of any kind on company premises at any time for any purpose.
PERSONAL PROPERTY

Bunkhouse accepts no responsibility for personal property that may be brought to or stored on company facilities,
and such property may be inspected or monitored in the ordinary course of conducting business. Accordingly, you
should not keep or maintain any personal property or information in company facilities that you expect to be kept
private and confidential.

In this connection, it should be noted that all company offices, desks, paper files, electronic/computer files, closets,
vehicles and so forth, are the property of the company and we reserve the right to inspect all such property, as well
as any packages, parcels, handbags, briefcases, or any other possessions or articles carried onto company facilities
and company job sites.
FIREARMS

Employees of the Hotel are not permitted to carry (either openly or in a concealed manner) any firearms while on
the Hotel’s premises, while at client work locations on Hotel business, while in Hotel vehicles, or while acting as a
Hotel representative at any work-related activities, meetings, or functions. This prohibition against the possession
or carrying of firearms applies even if the employee is licensed to carry a concealed handgun or to openly carry
a handgun by the state of Texas. Employees are permitted to transport and store in a safe and discrete manner
a legal firearm and ammunition in a personal vehicle while the vehicle is in the Hotel parking lot. This policy is
intended to comply with all applicable state laws concerning employee rights to possess and carry firearms and shall
be interpreted and enforced accordingly. Employees are prohibited from making any statements or actions that draw
attention to the presence of a lawfully transported weapon or that threaten or intimidate other employees, clients, or
visitors with regard to the employee’s lawful possession of a weapon.
DRESS CODE AND PERSONAL APPEARANCE

Dress, grooming, and personal cleanliness standards contribute to the morale of all employees and affect
the business image that Bunkhouse presents to guests and visitors. The appearance of the employees and
establishment are important factors to our guests. This can be a deciding factor on whether or not they will be
returning guests.
