Employment Application
If hired, I agree as follows: My employment and compensation is terminable at-
will, is for no definite period, and my employment and compensation may be
terminated by the Company (employer) at any time and for any reason
whatsoever, with or without good cause at the option of either the Company or
myself. Consequently, all terms and conditions of my employment may be
changed or withdrawn at Company’s unrestricted option at any time, with or
without good cause. No implied, oral, or written agreements contrary to the
express language of this agreement are valid unless they are in writing and signed
by the President of the Company (or majority owner or owners if Company is not a
corporation). No supervisor or representative of the Company, other than the
President of the Company (or majority owner or owners if Company is not a
corporation), has any authority to make any agreements contrary to the foregoing.
This agreement is the entire agreement between the Company and the employee
regarding the rights of the Company or employee to terminate employment with or
without good cause, and this agreement takes the place of all prior and
contemporaneous agreements, representations, and understandings of the
employee and the Company.
At-Will Employment
Screening and Testing
APPLICANT'S STATEMENT & AGREEMENT
• I understand that the Company reserves the right to require me to submit to a test for
the presence of drugs in my system prior to employment and at any time during my
employment, to the extent permitted by law.
• I also understand that any offer of employment may be contingent upon the passing
of a physical examination, performed by a doctor selected by the Company.
• I also understand that I may be required to take other tests such as personality and
honesty tests, prior to employment and during my employment.
• I understand that (in connection with this application and at any time during my
employment) the company may investigate my driving record.
• I understand that (in connection with this application and at any time during my
employment) the company may investigate my criminal record and that an
investigative consumer report may be prepared whereby information is obtained
through personal interviews with my neighbors, friends, personal references, and
others with whom I am acquainted. This inquiry includes information as to my
character, general reputation, personal characteristics and mode of living.
• I understand that should I decline to sign this consent or decline to take any of the
above tests, my application for employment may be rejected or my employment may
be terminated.
INTERVIEW
Interview
Studies show that interviewing a
candidate for a job position is only 14
percent effective in determining “job
fit.” On a nice day, it would be just as
effective and more enjoyable to sit on
a park bench and hire every seventh
person who walks by!

ASK THE TEN DEADLY
QUESTIONS?
Avoiding Liability
1. Do you feel comfortable after your
investigation that you will be able to prove,
with evidence, that the employee violated
the rule, or the standard of performance
was not met, and that you have treated
other similar situations with the same level
of discipline in similar circumstances?
Legal Liability Checklist
2. Are there any prior commitments (written
agreements or promises) in employee's
personnel file regarding a specific term of
employment, continued employment or a
requirement of just cause for termination
of employment?
Legal Liability Checklist
3. Are there any complaints or claims
(formal or informal) that the employee has
made against the company, any co-
worker, customer or vendor? (e.g.,
harassment, discrimination, retaliation,
unpaid wages, workers compensation
claims, safety issues, labor regulation
violations, dishonesty, customer fraud or
other claims that the company violated the
law in any way, etc.)
Legal Liability Checklist
4. If the employee falls into a "protected
category" (e.g., minority, race, religion,
color, sex, sexual orientation, national
origin, ancestry, citizenship status, uniform
service member status, marital status,
pregnancy, age/over 40, medical
condition—cancer related or HIV/AIDS
related, disability, or transgender status),
does the employee's "protected category"
represent a relatively small portion of your
workforce or the employee's work group.
Legal Liability Checklist
5. Has the employee taken any leaves of
absence within the last year? (Medical
leave, Family Care leave, Pregnancy
leave, Drug/Alcohol Rehabilitation leave,
Workers Compensation leave, etc.)
Legal Liability Checklist
6. Have you disciplined others for this same
general rule violation or performance
deficiency?
Legal Liability Checklist
7. Has the level of discipline imposed been
substantially the same for the same
violation or performance deficiency for
other employees?
Legal Liability Checklist
8. Have you failed to discipline anyone for
the same general rule violation or
performance deficiency, even though
some other employees may have been
disciplined for it?
Legal Liability Checklist
9. Have you given different levels of
discipline to different employees for the
same general rule violation or
performance deficiency?
Legal Liability Checklist
10. Do you plan to terminate the employee?
Legal Liability Checklist
Determine if you can distinguish leniency in
similar situations.
Document why current discipline scenario is
different than other non-discipline scenarios.
―Start Fresh‖ and hold back on more severe
discipline
