Harassment
Our work environment must be free from any form of intimidation
or harassment, including by way of example, sexual, racial or
religious harassment. Verbal or physical conduct by an employee
that harasses or disrupts another person's work performance,
or that creates an intimidating, offensive, abusive or hostile
work environment will not be tolerated. The Company is committed
to providing a workplace free of sexual harassment. This commitment
reinforces our goal to create an environment that fosters mutual
trust and respect. Examples of sexual harassment include, but
are not limited to: unwelcome sexual advances, verbal statements,
physical contact of a sexual nature, or the display of sexually
suggestive objects or pictures. Employees are encouraged to
speak out when a co-worker, member of leadership or any third
party engages in conduct that makes them uncomfortable in connection
with their job. Employees are also responsible for promptly
reporting harassment to their immediate supervisor, manager,
Human Resources representative, the Ethics Office, the Company
Legal Department or employee hotline. Employees are responsible
for reporting any sexual overtures or sexual harassment of any
kind by suppliers, customers or contractors.
Impairment and Substance Abuse
The Company has a vital interest in maintaining a safe and productive
work environment for all employees. Drugs, alcohol or other
substances may hinder job performance or judgment. The Company
requires a drug-free workplace. Using, possessing, distributing
or being under the influence of alcohol or an illegal or illicit
drug, while on duty, on Company premises or in Company vehicles
is prohibited. Employees with problems related to alcohol or
drugs are encouraged to seek assistance from the Employee Assistance
Program or other qualified professionals. Employees, who are
using prescription or non-prescription drugs that may impair
their alertness or judgment, and therefore jeopardize their
safety and that of their co-workers, should inform their supervisor
or manager of this fact.
Preventing Workplace Violence
Being considerate of others and exhibiting appropriate behavior
helps foster a workplace that is free from violence. Acts or
threats of physical harm or violence, hostile physical contact
(including intimidation, harassment, coercion), or any other
actions that are threatening or hostile in nature that occur
on Company property or affect Company operations will not be
tolerated. The Company does not allow weapons (legally permitted
or not) or explosives in Company facilities or on Company property,
in Company vehicles, or while conducting Company business. Employees
are expected to report any actual or potentially violent behavior
that could cause risk to others immediately to their supervisor,
manager, Human Resources representative, the Company Ethics
Office, Legal Department or the employee hotline.
Promoting Health and Safety
The Company is committed to providing a safe and healthful workplace
for all employees. To support this commitment, employees are
responsible for observing the safety and health rules, policies,
practices, laws and regulations that apply to their jobs and
for taking precautions necessary to protect themselves, their
co-workers and other persons present in Company facilities.
Employees are also responsible for immediately reporting accidents,
injuries, occupational illnesses and unsafe practices or conditions
to their supervisor or manager. Questions about possible health
and safety hazards at any Company facility should be directed
to your supervisor or manager.
Protecting the Environment
We respect the needs and concerns of the communities in which
we live and work. This is exemplified by the Company's tradition
of caring about the quality of the environment and complying
with all applicable environmental laws, rules and regulations
in all countries in which we have business operations. The Company
will operate in a way that safeguards the health, safety and
general welfare of its employees and the surrounding communities.
Let your supervisor or manager know immediately if you are aware
of any improperly handled hazardous materials. Talk to your
supervisor or manager if you are aware of any significant environmental
issues that may be in violation of applicable laws, rules or
regulations.
Product Quality
The Company is committed to providing quality products and services
that meet or exceed the expectations of our customers. Quality
issues that threaten the well-being of any person or put the
financial security of the Company at risk should be immediately
reported to senior management, thoroughly investigated, and
subject to corrective action. Quality issues may involve product
design, manufacture, installation, and maintenance.
Corporate Communications
The Company strives to be professional and consistent in
its communication with others. To achieve this goal, all contact
with investors, analysts and the media (newspapers, magazines,
trade publications, radio, television or other external source),
including requests for information and interviews, should be
directed to the TriMas Vice President of Human Resources for
handling by the appropriate corporate communications officer.
Employees who may be exposed to media contact should be aware
that the Company's standard corporate policy is not to comment
on rumors or speculation regarding its activities.
In addition, senior management and others at TriMas, if any,
who regularly communicate with securities market professionals
and holders of TriMas debt or equity securities must comply
with Regulation FD promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Regulation FD provides that whenever any such persons
disclose material, non-public information to certain persons,
the Company must also disclose that information to the general
public either simultaneously (for intentional disclosures) or
promptly (for inadvertent disclosures).
