without being asked. If you walk through the store and see

VACATION POLICY

Full-time employees who have worked for the Employer for


two years are entitled to five working days paid vacation as
of the anniversary date of their employment. Annual
vacation leave may be taken after each succeeding
anniversary date. Full-time employees who have worked for
the Employer for three years or more are entitled to ten
working days paid vacation during the fourth year of
employment and in each succeeding year. After five years
of employment, full-time employees are entitled to fifteen
working days paid vacation. Although employees earn
vacation from the first day of employment, vacation time is
available for taking time off only after an employee's
anniversary date each year.

Vacation Periods are not cumulative

The purpose of vacation is rest, recreation and change of


scene. Therefore, vacation must be taken in the year of
entitlement. If agreed upon by management and employee,
cash payment may be paid in exchange for vacation time.
Intended vacation dates should be approved by filling out a
vacation request form, the management will then need to
approve the dates requested. Employees are requested to
indicate their vacation plans well in advance so that
arrangements can be made for a substitute. If an employee
resigns or is terminated, no payment is made for earned
vacation time. Unused vacation time is forfeited.

Sick Leave
                                                                                          Last revised: January 2, 2007

Second Image does not reward absences. If an employee


is too ill to work, the employee (not friend, boyfriend etc.)
Must notify Second Image or may be discharged. Second
Image will honor the employee's judgment on employee's
fitness to work; however the Employer reserves the right to
request a doctor's excuse or other reasonable proof if it is
deemed appropriate. Do not call in "sick" to get a day off. If
time off is needed for a special event, please pre-arrange
this with your supervisor.

employee will receive pay for the following holidays:

Thanksgiving

worked.
Overtime pay, in accordance with Florida State laws,
occurs after 40 hours have been worked during a seven-day
period. More than eight hours of work during a single day
does not qualify as overtime unless over 40 hours have
been accumulated during the preceding work week. Due to
our two-week pay period, overtime will automatically occur
after 40 hours worked during each 7-day Monday to Sunday
period per paycheck.

Advances

No money will be advanced or loaned.

Termination

When management for any reason terminates you, your


paycheck will be issued at the end of the pay period. If you
resign after giving adequate notice, you are eligible for re-
hire at the discretion of management. If there is no notice
given, you will not be considered for re-hire. You will not
receive your last paycheck until payday.

Late /Absences

You must be prepared to start work on time. Eating,


putting away coats, purses, going to the restroom, are done
before clocking in. For the store to run smoothly, all
employees must show up for work on time, as scheduled. It
is unfair to other employees if you do not come to work.
You yourself must call as soon as possible if you are going
to be late or absent for any reason. An employee who is
late three (3) times in a month will be subject to
termination. Exceptions will be made in emergency
situations only.

Breaks and Lunch

You will receive two 15-minute break periods (you must


work for 2 hours before taking a break) during an 8-hour
shift. You will punch out for a one-half hour lunch break. If
you are part-time, check with your supervisor for a break
and lunch schedule.

Timecards

You must be sure to clock in and out. You are paid from a
time card. Don't forget to use it. Once you are on the
computerized time clock, make sure you see “Clock-
in (or) Clock-out Successful”

Dress Code

Good taste and common sense shall prevail in appearance,


clothing and behavior. All employees are expected to dress
in a manner that is appropriate to your department.
Excessively short shorts, halter-tops or low-cut tops are
considered inappropriate in any department. Check with
your supervisor. Long earrings, open toed shoes, thongs,
and high heels are a hazard in the work area and are not to
be worn. Rubber sole shoes are recommended for comfort.

bags into the store. If you are a student coming from school

be checked before you leave the store. Management
reserves the right to search all packages before leaving the
store, including purses.

Lockers

You will be issued a locker for your personal belongings.


Employees may use their lockers only before and after
shifts and during breaks. This means before you clock in.
At the end of your shift, go to your locker only after you
have clocked out.

the store. Eating should be confined to the break room, or
outside. Smoking is not allowed inside of the building. All
food garbage must be placed in a trash container.

Complaints

If you are having a problem in your department, we would


appreciate it if you would take it up with your immediate
supervisor. If the supervisor cannot resolve the problem,
then go to the assistant manager. If it still cannot be
resolved, then bring it to the attention of the owner.

Back Room

No employee is allowed in the back room or break room


during off hours. If you allow someone in there on your
shift, you are responsible and it is grounds for termination.

Family/Friends

Family members and friends are encouraged to shop in the


store, but are not allowed in the break room or back room
area. Please do not visit with friends or family on the sales
floor.

Cleaning for back room

There is a cleaning schedule in the break room for back-


room employees. When the time comes, please observe
your duties. When it is not your scheduled cleaning week,
please be considerate and do not leave a mess for others.

the break room clean after 4:30.

Shoplifting

Shoplifting is the concern of all employees. If you see


someone shoplifting, you are to alert the appropriate person
and let him or her know what is going on. This is not just
the job of floor persons. It really affects us all. If the store
is losing money, we will all suffer. If you turn in a shoplifter,
you will receive a $10 cash reward.
