The Employee Handbook contains important information about the Company and I understand that I should consult my supervisor regarding any questions not answered in the handbook. I have entered into my employment relationship with the Company voluntarily and understand that there is no specified length of employment. Accordingly, either the Company or I can terminate the relationship at will, at any time, with or without cause, and with or without advance notice, at which time an Affidavit of Resignation Obligations must be executed, which reiterates requirements to return company-provided equipment, maintain confidentiality, and adhere to Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation clauses. Since the information, policies, and benefits described in the Employee Handbook are subject to change at any time, I acknowledge that revisions to the handbook may occur. All such changes will generally be communicated through official notices, and I understand that revised information may supersede, modify, or eliminate existing policies. Only the CEO/Manager of HLM Associates has the authority to adopt any revisions to the policies in this handbook. Furthermore, I understand that this handbook is neither a contract of employment nor a legally binding employment agreement. I have had an opportunity to read the handbook and I understand that I may ask my supervisor any questions I might have concerning the handbook. I accept the terms of the handbook. I also understand that it is my responsibility to comply with the policies contained in this handbook and any future revisions made to it. I further agree that if I remain with the Company following any modifications to the handbook, I accept and agree to such changes. I have received a copy of the Company’s Employee Handbook on the date listed below. I understand that I am expected to read the entire handbook. Additionally, I will sign the two copies of this Acknowledgment of Receipt, retain one copy for myself, and return one copy to the Company’s representative listed below within ten business days of my hire date. I understand that this form will be retained in my personnel file.
