2.6
Termination of Employment-Voluntary and Involuntary Termination of employment for an employee, whether actively working or on inactive status, can occur for the following reasons:
As an “at will” employee not subject to an employment contract, employees may choose to end their employment with COPC at any time and for any reason or for no reason at all. Employees are requested to submit a working notice of resignation in writing to their manager two (2) weeks (or as otherwise designated per position or contract) prior to the date they intend the resignation to take effect, to assist the Company in planning for the departure. At its sole discretion, COPC may ask an employee to leave prior to their resignation date. In this case, COPC will pay the employee up to the required notice period, as designated per position or contract, in lieu of working through the resignation date.
Employees are requested to submit notice of a planned retirement date in writing to their Direct Supervisor as far in advance of the effective date as possible. This will assist the Company in planning for the departure.
Termination of employment with or without cause: As an “at will” employee not subject to an employment contract, COPC may terminate employment at any time and for any reason not prohibited by law or for no reason at all, regardless of work performance, or compliance with the rules set forth in this handbook.
● Dishonesty ● Failing to work cooperatively with others or preventing others from performing their jobs ● Falsifying the application for employment ● Failure to notify the Company within 24 hours of intent to return to work and/or failure to report for work within three (3) working days once the Company has recalled the employee after a layoff ● Conviction of a felony offense and/or imprisonment ● Violation of established COPC policies ● Violation of policies and procedures set forth at the work location, not specified in this handbook
Involuntary Terminations: The following list is not meant to be all inclusive—there may be other reasons for involuntary terminations than those listed here: ● As a result of a reduction of the work force ● As a result of poor performance, behavior, or attendance ● Absence for three (3) or more consecutive days without notifying the Company of reasons for the absence ● Failure to report to work on the first workday following the expiration of an authorized leave of absence ● Giving a false reason for a leave of absence or seeking or engaging in other work during such a leave
