Hiring Policy

It is the policy of Fi Companies to be an equal opportunity, non-discriminatory employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, veteran status, disability, or any other categories protected by federal, state, or local law. Accordingly, we abide by all federal, state and local laws governing all aspects of the employment relationship with our employees. Should any of our employment policies or practices conflict with any federal, state or local laws, our policies and practices will be considered amended or revised to the extent necessary to conform with the law.

We base hiring decisions on a variety of lawful considerations, including but not limited to: our assessment of the applicant’s qualifications, skills and ability to perform the job involved; prior satisfactory employment with us; availability; referrals by employees and customers; ability to perform with or without reasonable accommodation the essential functions of the position applied for, including the ability to meet attendance requirements; ability to timely provide documentation verifying that the applicant may lawfully work in the U.S.; employment references; willingness to work; ability to work with others; willingness to accept the offered salary; relevant employment experience; geographic and transportation considerations; and personal interviews.

Because of varying production/customer staffing needs, required overtime work assignments and safety considerations, we consider employment with our Company to be primary and above any other employers needs. Furthermore, while employees may perform work for another employer, this work cannot present any real or perceived conflict of interest. Employment by any Fi Companies customer, supplier, or contractor is prohibited while employed by the Company.

To seek employment, a potential applicant must, fill out, sign and submit the Company’s “Application” form. Due to a potentially high volume of applicants, only individuals whose skills most closely match a needed position will be contacted to interview. In the event individuals submit unsolicited resumes which show, in our opinion, that they may be qualified for needed positions may be contacted and asked to complete an Application form on-line or through other means. So that they may be properly considered, the Company’s “Application” form must be completed prior to meeting with an authorized representative of the Company.

When openings exist, only “active” applications are reviewed. Applications are considered “active” and eligible for consideration for a period of time not to exceed six months. Thereafter, it is the responsibility of the applicant to keep the Company informed of his/her availability. Resumes and applications that are not active are not reviewed for possible consideration.

Many positions at the Company have physical requirements, such as repetitive motion, lifting, reaching, etc. Successful candidates must be able to perform the essential functions of the position involved, with or without reasonable accommodation.

All information given by the applicant in the Application and all other information supplied by the applicant before, during or after any interview are considered by us to be important to hiring and/or the continuation of employment. Any material and/or intentional misrepresentation, exaggeration, fraud, withholding or other misconduct involved in the preparation or submission of the Application or in any information given by the applicant before, during or after the hiring process, or with respect to any qualifying tests, will be sufficient reason for either refusing to hire the applicant, or (if there has been a hiring) for termination on discovery, at any time during an individual’s employment, regardless of the amount of time that has passed between the hire and termination.

 

Employment Relationship

All employees are considered “at will” employees. This means that your employment with the Company is voluntary on your part, as well as on the part of the Company. You are free to resign or terminate your employment at any time for any reason or no reason at all. Likewise, the Company may terminate your employment at any time for any or no reason, with or without notice.

No Company representative other than the Company’s President has the authority to enter into any agreement for employment for any specified period of time, or to make any agreement contrary to the preceding paragraph. Absent a written contract of employment for a definite duration signed by the employee and the Company’s President, an employee is an at-will employee.

If you should plan to leave our employ for any reason, we would appreciate that you provide notice to your supervisor and the Human Resources Department with at least two (2) weeks advance notice of the date of your proposed resignation.
We reserve the right to assign employees to any job(s) and/or location of any job(s) that in the Company’s opinion may be best for the Company.
