EMPLOYEE PROCEDURES & ORIENTATION GUIDELINES
JOB ASSIGNMENTS
Speak directly with your Watson Dwyer Temporaries, Inc. (WDTI) Consultant or leave a voicemail, 24 hours a day, regarding any matter related to your employment:
Late arrivals to the job site or if you are unable to work a scheduled shift due to illness
The client ends/extends an assignment or approaches you regarding a full-time position
A problem develops between you and a co-worker or supervisor
The work required is beyond your capabilities
Change of address/phone number
The rate of pay for specific assignments is based on the skill sets required. You may accept or decline any position offered. However, once you accept an assignment you are required to complete the duration of the assignment.
It is illegal to accept a permanent position without a written agreement between WDTI and the client company. Without this agreement, legal action may occur. All fees for permanent placement are paid by the client company and remain confidential. There is never any cost to you.
You are responsible for contacting your WDTI Consultant weekly regarding your availability for work. Failure to let us know that you are available for work will result in the assumption that you are not actively seeking employment.
ON THE JOB
Remember, you work for WDTI and as a contractor for the client to whom you are assigned. You must contact your WDTI Consultant one day in advance if you need to be excused from a day of work. This allows us the opportunity to find a replacement if necessary. We will notify the on-site supervisor. Documentation may be required within 24 hours of an absence to be excused.
Causes for immediate termination from your assignment and/or future temporary assignments and possible prosecution:
Failure to call in your absence will be considered a NO SHOW/NO CALL and result in an automatic termination
