It is against the policy of Norton Energy Drilling (herein referred to as "NED") for any employee to report to work while under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs. Anyone that arrives at work under the influence is subject to immediate discipline, up to and including termination. Additionally, we require that you reimburse NED for any cost incurred to transport you to your home.

NED requires a pre-employment drug screen through Urine Analysis (U.A.) and hair follicle (which is confirmed by GC/MS). NED reserves the right to perform random drug testing throughout your employment. If NED feels there is a need for a U.A. or any other type of drug screen, i.e., on-the-job injury, reasonable suspicion, etc., and the test result is positive for any illegal substance, you will be subject to immediate discipline up to and including termination. Anyone testing positive for illegal substances during the first 60 days of employment will have $40 deducted from their final paycheck to reimburse NED for the cost of the U.A. Refusal of a U.A. will result in immediate termination.

I understand that if I leave NED within the first 60 days of employment, the cost for pre-employment screening (Background check, Urine Analysis, Hair Follicle, and Functional Test, which will total $165); OSHA-required training including H2S Certification and Fit Testing, and Rig Pass Certification (totaling $330); and supplies (PPE) will be deducted from my final pay check. This could include gloves, hard hat, coveralls and safety glasses, totaling $195.

I further understand that if an offer of employment is extended by NED that such employment is at will, for no specified duration and may be terminated by either NED or myself at any time, with no cause or notice. I understand that none of the documents, policies, procedures, actions, statements of NED representatives used during the employment process is deemed a contract of employment real or implied. I understand that no representative of NED except the President has the authority to enter into any agreement, guaranteeing any conditions of employment or any agreement contrary to the foregoing statements and the agreements must be made in writing and signed by the President of NED.

In consideration for employment with NED, if employed, I agree to conform to the rules, regulations, policies and procedures of NED at all times and understand that such obedience is a condition of employment. I understand that due to the nature of NED business, attendance and punctuality are considered essential requirements of employment at NED and that poor attendance or tardiness will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.

It is important that all employees driving personal vehicles to and from the job location have current insurance coverage, but it is not the responsibility of NED to see that this is done.
