Applicant Terms and Conditions

Employment Terms and Conditions

I agree that my submission of this employment application does not obligate Equa, LLC (“the Company”) to employ me, or to offer me employment.

I agree that the information on my resume (and accompanying documents, if any) is true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I am responsible for ensuring that the information I submit is accurate and up-to-date. I also agree that any misstatement, false information, or omission deemed significant by Equa may disqualify me from consideration, and/or may be reason for discharge if discovered after an offer of employment has been extended to me.

Subject to any applicable agreements and policies with such employers and individuals, I authorize and request that all of my present and former employers and those individuals I have listed as references furnish information about my employment record, including the reason for the termination of my employment, work performance, abilities, and other qualities pertinent to my qualifications for employment. I hereby release them and the Company from any and all liability for damages arising from furnishing the requested information.

I agree that I am not party to any agreement, or subject to any legal obligation, that would in any way restrict me, or interfere with me from fully performing the requirements of the job for which I am applying, and that I must disclose to the Company any such agreement or obligation before the Company considers my application.

In addition, I agree that if I am offered employment at Equa, that such offer, and continued employment, is contingent on the results of a background and reference check. I authorize the Company or the Company’s agent, at any time prior to or during my employment, to: (a) investigate my references and employment record; (b) communicate with my former employers provided as references; (c) conduct an independent investigation of my character, conduct and employment record, including, without limitation, a criminal background check and/or request a credit report and/or request an investigative background credit report. I understand that the results of investigation or background checks may be kept and preserved. Additionally, I release the Company, its subsidiaries, their officers, employees and agents, and any other person from all liability for any damage that may result from furnishing information to the Company.

I understand my information may be disclosed to law enforcement, regulatory or other government agencies, or third parties where required and where necessary to comply with legal or regulatory obligations or requests.

I agree that if I am hired for a position in the United States of America, I will be employed on an at-will basis, which means that: (a) my employment and compensation are not guaranteed for any definite period, and can be terminated, with or without cause, and with or without notice, by either the Company or myself, (b) there is no written or oral agreement or representation that can alter my at-will status, and (c) nothing contained in the Employee Handbook or any other documentation provided to an employee is intended to limit, modify, change, or amend the “at will” nature of employment with the Company. Any salary figures provided in annual or monthly terms are stated for the sake of convenience or to facilitate comparisons and are not intended and do not create an employment contract for any specific period of time. I understand that no person other than the Company’s President & CEO has the authority to agree to modify or change the “at will” nature of my employment and that any such modification or change must be in writing and signed by the Company’s President & CEO.

I understand that if an offer of employment is made, I may be required to undergo and successfully pass a test for alcohol and/or illegal drugs, and prescribed over-the-counter drugs that may impair my ability to perform my job or may affect the safety or well-being of others in accordance with the Company’s Drug and Alcohol Policy. I also understand and agree that, if employed, I may be required to submit to an alcohol or drug test at the discretion of the Company consistent with applicable law and the Company’s Policy. It is the policy of the Company to ensure the privacy of all applicants and employees in connection with drug and alcohol testing. I understand I may consult with the Company’s Human Resources department for further information concerning the Company’s drug and alcohol testing policy.

I understand that if I am selected to proceed with the application process, I may be given or obtain access to non-public information that the Company considers to be of a confidential, proprietary, or trade secret nature (“Confidential Information”). I agree that I will not directly or indirectly disclose the Confidential Information to any third party, and that I will not use the Confidential Information for my own benefit or for the benefit of any third party.

I agree that if Equa does not employ me at this time, Equa may retain and use the information that it obtains as part of the application process to consider my application later if a suitable position becomes available and, if appropriate, to refer back to this application if I apply again. If at any time I no longer want Equa to consider my application for employment, I understand I must email them at hr@equa.us, in which case the information will be stored securely for no more than one year from the date of notification, and access to it will only be made to the extent necessary for legal and regulatory purposes.

I agree that upon termination of my employment I will return all Company property and records in my possession.

By submitting my resume, I voluntarily consent to the above terms, and recognize that my agreement to these terms is legally binding and enforceable to the same extent as if I had signed my name.
