Employee Performance

*** VERY IMPORTANT***

Monday appointments:

Monday is the most critical day of the week at Painters Plus. Therefore, we ask that appointments requiring time-off not be made on Mondays. It is also our policy not to tolerate unexcused or last minute absentees. Most jobs at Painters Plus begin on Monday. Your absence (excused or unexcused) on Monday is a major complication for us to properly service our customer.

Quality of work

If you finish a job and it is not up to the standards that are the norm for Painters Plus, you will be asked to do the necessary re-work at that job to bring it up to the expectations of Painters Plus at your expense. That is, you will not be paid for the work that has to be redone. If the situation is due to negligence on your part.

You will be responsible to pay for any damage that is done as a result of your carelessness.

Some examples are:

  • Breaking a lamp
  • Splattering paint on furniture, clothing or carpeting
  • Damaging exterior surfaces
  • Trampling foliage


Safety and Conscientiousness First

Colossian 3:23 and whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not unto men.

Painter Plus believes in following Biblical Principles in all aspects of life.

For you, the employee, you need to know who you are working for and what Painters Plus stand for.

We don’t hire painters… We choose them.

Drug and Alcohol Free Work Place

Painters Plus is a drug and alcohol free work place. Preliminary drug and alcohol testing is performed on all new hires.

All employees of Painters Plus will be subject to random (ongoing) drug and alcohol screening. If, at any time, a test is returned with a positive result, it will result in the employee’s immediate termination.

Weekend/nightly consumption of alcohol, that leaves alcohol on your breath during work hours, will result in employee’s immediate termination.

Smoking

Smoking is allowed on breaks only. Off job-site (you may go to the street or your car if it is parked on the street). No smoking is allowed in any building or homes. No smoking in or around Painters Plus Shop. Carry mints to help alleviate the smoke odor.

Hours

Normal working hours are from 7 A.M. until 3:30 P.M. unless an alternate time is requested by the homeowner. You will have a 10 minute break in the morning and afternoon with a 30 minute lunch break at 12 noon. DO NOT leave the job during breaks. Return promptly to work after breaks. Do NOT work through lunch break as you will not be paid for it. If you need more time to finish your daily work, do so after 3:30 p.m. If you need time off, you must notify management with the request PRIOR to the date/time needed. Record times accurately.

Time Sheets

Time sheets must be kept on a daily basis. Do not wait till the morning they are due. These must be accurate and clearly legible. Time sheets must include the times and the job names worked at those times. Work time begins when you are ready with tools in hand, NOT arrival time. Time sheets are to be handed into management. Overtime and make-up time should be clearly marked to the side of each day’s recording. Make-up time MUST be made up on Saturdays.

ALL INVOICES MUST BE TURNED IN ON FRIDAYS

DON’T GUESS AT YOUR TIME!

I WON’T GUESS AT YOUR CHECK!


Advancement and Raises

Job performance and adherence to procedures will not go unnoticed.

Communication is very important…

It will not be overlooked if communication is not honored through channels.

Message from Management

Some of these requirements may seem detailed. However these “Standards of Excellence” set Painters Plus apart from others. They also keep things running smoothly.

If you have questions, concerns or problems with any of the things outlined in this handbook, please let me know so that we may discuss them. Thank you
