That's why we work hard to <br />remove any obstacles. Effective workplace communication means that a healthy environment exists between employees <br />and management to openly talk about work issues, safety concerns or employment conditions. This is integral to our busi- <br />ness. The tools of our policy consist of five communication "channels": <br />• Our policy requires managers and supervisors to invite, listen and respond to comments, concerns or problems <br />employees may have. <br />• An Alert -line, a 24-hour toll-free telephone number. puts employees in touch with an independent external <br />compa-iy so they can voice their concerns or complaints. <br />• Employee Meetings are required at least monthly. <br />• The Employee Suggestion Program encourages our people to submit ideas and recommendations to the office, <br />which will ultimately result in improved operations, service or p-ofits. A small prize is awarded to the contest <br />winners. <br />• A formal Complaint Procedure enables employees to escalate issues to the General Manager, Regional Manager <br />or Senior Vice President. The procedure is monitored by Corporate Human Resources to assure a timely <br />response. <br />25A-114 <br />
