\\ Welcome new employee!

On behalf of your colleagues, I welcome you to Logos and wish you every success here.

We believe that each employee contributes directly to Logos’ growth and success, and we hope you will take pride in being a member of our team.

This handbook was developed to describe some of the expectations of our employees and to outline the policies, programs, and benefits available to eligible employees.

Employees should familiarize themselves with the contents of the employee handbook as soon as possible, for it will answer many questions about employment with Logos.

The handbook describes many of your responsibilities as an employee and outlines the programs developed by Logos to benefit employees.

In order to retain necessary flexibility in the administration of policies and procedures, Logos reserves the right to change, revise, or eliminate any of the policies and~/or benefits described in this handbook, except for its policy of employment-at-will.

The only recognized deviations from the stated policies are those authorized and signed by the chief executive officer of Logos.

We hope that your experience here will be challenging, enjoyable, and rewarding.

Again, welcome!

Sincerely,

Bob Pritchett

\\ EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

Logos believes that the work conditions, wages, and benefits it offers to its employees are competitive with those offered by other employers in this area and in this industry.

If employees have concerns about work conditions or compensation, they are strongly encouraged to voice these concerns openly and directly to their supervisors.

Our experience has shown that when employees deal openly and directly with supervisors, the work environment can be excellent, communications can be clear, and attitudes can be positive.

We believe that Logos amply demonstrates its commitment to employees by responding effectively to employee concerns.

EMPLOYMENT CATEGORIES

It is the intent of Logos to clarify the definitions of employment classifications so that employees understand their employment status and benefit eligibility.

These classifications do not guarantee employment for any specified period of time.

Accordingly, the right to terminate the employment relationship at will at any time is retained by both the employee and Logos.

Each employee is designated as either *nonexempt* or *exempt* from federal and state wage and hour laws.

*nonexempt* employees are entitled to overtime pay under the specific provisions of federal and state laws.

*exempt* employees are excluded from specific provisions of federal and state wage and hour laws.

An employee's *exempt* or *nonexempt* classification may be changed only upon written notification by Logos management.

In addition to the above categories, each employee will belong to one other employment category:

·         Management employees are those who are not in a temporary or introductory status and who are regularly scheduled to work on a full-time basis and are paid a monthly salary.

Management employees are those who are in a supervisory role over other employees or who are responsible for departments.

Generally, they are eligible for Logos’ benefit package, subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations of each benefit program.

·         Salaried employees are those who are not in a temporary or introductory status and who are regularly scheduled to work on a full-time basis and are paid a monthly salary.

Generally, they are eligible for Logos’ benefit package, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of each benefit program.

·         Regular Full-Time Hourly employees are those who are not in a temporary or introductory status and who are regularly scheduled to work Logos’ full-time schedule and are paid on an hourly basis.

Generally, they are eligible for Logos’ benefit package, subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations of each benefit program.

·         Regular Part-Time Hourly employees are those who are not in a temporary or introductory status and who are regularly scheduled to work less than 32 hours a week and are paid on an hourly basis.

While they do receive all legally mandated benefits (such as Social Security and workers' compensation insurance), they are ineligible for most of Logos’ sponsored benefit programs.

(Some specific other Logos-sponsored benefits may also be available, subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations of each benefit program.

·         Temporary Full-Time employees are those who are hired as interim replacements, to temporarily supplement the work force, to assist in the completion of a specific project, or for an introductory evaluation period in order to determine whether further employment in a specific position is appropriate.

They are regularly scheduled to work Logos’ full-time schedule and are paid on an hourly basis.

Employment assignments in this category are of a limited duration.

Employment beyond any initially stated period does not in any way imply a change in employment status.

Temporary employees retain that status unless and until notified of a change.

While they do receive all legally mandated benefits (such as Social Security and workers' compensation insurance), they are ineligible for all of Logos’ other benefit programs.

(Some specific other Logos-sponsored benefits may also be available, subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations of each benefit program.)
