Acknowledgments & Agreements

I acknowledge that I have received access to the 47G Employee Handbook.

I understand that this handbook contains important information about 47G’s employment policies, workplace expectations, benefits, standards of conduct, reporting procedures, and operational responsibilities.

I understand that the handbook is intended to serve as a guide and reference for employees. It does not cover every situation that may arise, and I am expected to seek guidance from my supervisor, Human Resources, or authorized leadership when I have questions.

I agree to read, understand, and follow the policies, standards, and procedures described in the 47G Employee Handbook.

I understand that my role at 47G carries responsibility. I am expected to act with integrity, professionalism, accountability, and respect while supporting the organization’s mission and representing 47G in internal and external settings.

I understand that failure to follow 47G policies or workplace expectations may result in corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.

I understand that 47G may revise, suspend, replace, interpret, or discontinue any policy, procedure, benefit, or practice described in this handbook at any time, with or without notice, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

I understand that updates may be communicated by email, written notice, revised handbook distribution, internal communication, or another method determined by 47G.

I understand that I am responsible for following the most current version of applicable 47G policies.

I understand that employment with 47G is at will.

This means that either I or 47G may end the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, and with or without advance notice, subject to applicable law.

I understand that nothing in this handbook creates a contract of employment, guarantees employment for any specific period, or changes the at-will employment relationship.

I understand that no supervisor, manager, employee, representative, or other individual has authority to change the at-will employment relationship unless the change is made in a written agreement signed by me and an authorized executive officer of 47G.

I understand that verbal statements, informal assurances, offer letters, performance reviews, policy language, workplace practices, or other communications do not create a contract of employment unless expressly stated in such a signed written agreement.

I understand that 47G may use coaching, corrective action, performance improvement plans, suspension, or other employment actions when appropriate.

I also understand that 47G is not required to follow any specific sequence of corrective action before termination. Serious misconduct, loss of trust, business needs, performance concerns, or other lawful reasons may result in immediate termination.

I acknowledge that I may have access to confidential, proprietary, sensitive, or nonpublic information during my employment with 47G, as described in Section 5.3. I agree to protect confidential information and use it only for authorized 47G business purposes.

I understand that my confidentiality obligations continue during and after my employment with 47G, to the fullest extent permitted by law and any applicable agreement.

I agree not to disclose, copy, retain, transfer, misuse, or distribute confidential information without authorization.

I understand that, upon request or separation from employment, I must return or delete confidential information in accordance with 47G instructions, subject to any legal preservation requirements.

Nothing in this acknowledgment prevents me from reporting possible legal violations to government agencies, cooperating with lawful investigations, filing administrative charges, discussing wages, hours, or working conditions, or exercising rights protected by law.

I acknowledge that 47G systems, devices, accounts, software, networks, communication platforms, documents, files, and work product are provided for authorized business purposes.

I agree to use company technology responsibly, professionally, and in accordance with 47G policy.

I understand that I must protect passwords, use required security measures, report suspicious activity, avoid unauthorized software, and safeguard confidential information when using technology.

I understand that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, I should have no expectation of privacy when using 47G systems, devices, accounts, networks, software, storage platforms, or communication tools.

I understand that 47G may access, monitor, review, preserve, disclose, or delete information on company systems when permitted by law and when necessary for business, security, compliance, legal, operational, or investigative purposes.

I agree to return all company-issued technology, devices, access credentials, files, and related property upon request or separation from employment.

I agree not to retain company information, copy company files, interfere with system access, delete company records, or use company accounts after employment ends unless authorized in writing or required by law.

I acknowledge that 47G prohibits discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment, bullying, retaliation, workplace violence, and other conduct that violates law or company policy.

I understand that these policies apply in the workplace and in work-related settings, including events, meetings, travel, conferences, digital communications, partner engagements, public-sector interactions, and other environments where I represent 47G.

I agree to conduct myself with professionalism, respect, and accountability.

I understand that I am responsible for promptly reporting concerns involving discrimination, harassment, retaliation, bullying, workplace violence, safety risks, ethical concerns, policy violations, or other serious misconduct, using the reporting options described in Section 4.5, and that I am not required to report to the person involved in the conduct.

I understand that 47G’s non-retaliation policy, described in Section 4.7, protects employees who raise concerns in good faith or participate in investigations. I agree to cooperate honestly in any review or investigation and understand that knowingly false reports, interference, or retaliation may result in corrective action.

I acknowledge that workplace safety is a shared responsibility at 47G.

I agree to follow safety rules, emergency procedures, facility requirements, event instructions, site-specific standards, and supervisor directions designed to protect employees, visitors, partners, property, and operations.

I understand that safety obligations apply in the office, while traveling, at events, at partner locations, at member sites, and in any setting where I represent 47G.

I agree to promptly report work-related injuries, illnesses, accidents, near misses, unsafe conditions, or other safety risks as described in Section 11.2, and I understand that 47G prohibits retaliation against employees who report safety concerns in good faith.

I understand that I am expected to report to work in a condition that allows me to perform my duties safely, professionally, and effectively.

I agree not to work while impaired by alcohol, illegal drugs, misuse of controlled substances, misuse of prescription or over-the-counter medication, or any other condition that may create safety or performance concerns.

I understand that violations of safety, drug-free workplace, alcohol, weapons, or workplace violence policies may result in corrective action, up to and including termination.

I understand that 47G’s standard practice is in-person work, and that remote, hybrid, or flexible work arrangements are individually approved exceptions based on role and business need, not a standard benefit available to all employees.

I understand that approval of a remote or hybrid arrangement does not change my employment status, job duties, performance expectations, confidentiality obligations, technology responsibilities, or at-will employment relationship.

I understand that 47G may modify, suspend, or revoke remote, hybrid, or flexible work arrangements at any time based on business needs, performance, communication, security, confidentiality, team coordination, or operational requirements.

If approved to work remotely or on a hybrid schedule, I agree to remain available, responsive, productive, and professional during approved working hours.

I agree to attend required meetings, maintain accurate calendars, communicate proactively, protect confidential information, use approved systems, and maintain a work environment appropriate for 47G business.

I understand that remote work is not a substitute for dependent care, outside employment, personal errands, or other obligations that interfere with work responsibilities.

If approved to work remotely, I agree to protect 47G information, devices, accounts, and documents from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.

I agree to use secure internet connections, safeguard devices, prevent unauthorized individuals from viewing or accessing company information, and store documents only in approved systems.

I understand that confidentiality and security standards apply fully in remote and hybrid work environments.

By signing below, I certify that I have received access to the 47G Employee Handbook and understand that I am responsible for reading and following its policies.

I understand that this handbook is not an employment contract and does not guarantee employment for any specific period.

I understand that employment with 47G is at will, subject to applicable law.

I understand that 47G may revise, suspend, replace, interpret, or discontinue handbook policies at any time, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
