CREA Employee Handbook (Updated 2026)

General Policies Use of Employer-Provided Equipment CREA, LLC will not:

 Discharge, constructively discharge, harass, discriminate, retaliate, or otherwise take adverse action against you for using employer-issued equipment to record domestic violence, sexual violence, gender violence, or any other crime of violence committed against you or a family or household member.  Deprive you of employer-issued equipment solely because you used or attempted to use such equipment to record domestic violence, sexual violence, gender violence, or any other crime of violence committed against you or a family or household member. The Company will grant you access to any photographs, voice or video recordings, sound recordings, or any other digital documents or communications stored on an employer-issued device relating to domestic violence, sexual violence, gender violence, or any other crime of violence committed against you or a family or household member. In addition, the Company will comply with any law enforcement investigation, court order, or subpoena for a device, information, data, or documents. Access to Personnel and Medical Records Files CREA, LLC maintains separate medical records files and personnel files for all employees. Files containing medical records are stored in a safe, locked, inaccessible location, separate and apart from any business- related records. The medical file is the repository for sensitive and confidential information related to an individual’s health, health benefits, health-related leave and/or accommodations, and benefits selections and coverage. Medical records are kept confidential in compliance with applicable laws, and access is on a “need- to-know” basis only. Supervisors and others in management may have access to your personnel file for possible employment-related decisions. Upon written request, you will be permitted to inspect, copy, and receive copies of the following documents in accordance with applicable law:  Any personnel documents that are, have been, or are intended to be used in determining your qualifications for employment, promotion, transfer, compensation, benefits, discharge, or other disciplinary action.  Any employment-related contracts or agreements that the Company maintains that are legally binding on you.  Any employee handbooks that are made available to you or that you acknowledged receiving.  Any written policies or procedures you are subject to and that concern qualifications for employment, promotion, transfer, compensation, benefits, discharge, or other disciplinary action. Written request includes any electronic communications, such as email or text messages. You are limited to two such requests per calendar year. Written requests should be submitted to Human Resources. Your written request must:  Identify which personnel records you are requesting or if you are requesting all records allowed to be requested by law;  Specify if you are requesting to inspect, copy, or receive copies of the records;  Specify whether records be provided in hardcopy or in a reasonable and commercially available electronic format;  Specify whether inspection, copying, or receipt of copies will be performed by you or your designated representative; and  Include a signed waiver to release medical information and medical records to your designated representative, if the records being requested include medical information. The Company will comply with your request within seven working days of receipt of the request, or, if we can reasonably show that such deadline cannot be met, we will have an additional seven calendar days to comply.
