Employee Code of Conduct
As an employee, you are responsible to behave appropriately at work. We outline our expectations here. We may not be
able to cover every single case of conduct, but we trust you to always use your best judgement. Reach out to your manager
or HR if you face any issues or have any questions.

Dress Code
Our company’s official dress code is [Business/ Business Casual]. However, an employee’s position may also indicate how
they should dress. If you frequently meet with clients or prospects, please conform to a more formal dress code. We expect
you to implement self-grooming when coming to work and avoid wearing clothes that are unprofessional.

Cyber Security and Digital Devices

This section deals with all things digital at work. We set some guidelines for using computers, phones, our internet
connection, and social media to ensure security and to protect our assets.

Internet Usage
Our corporate internet connection is primarily for business although, you may occasionally use our connection for personal
purposes as long as they do not interfere with your job responsibilities. Also, we expect you to avoid personal activities that
slow down our internet connection (e.g. uploading or downloading photos/movies/games/ large files).

You must not use our internet connection to:

 Download or upload obscene, offensive, or illegal material.
 Send confidential information to unauthorized recipients.
 Invade another person’s privacy and gain access to sensitive information.
 Download or upload pirated movies, music, material or software.
 Visit potentially dangerous websites that can compromise our network and computers’ safety.
 Perform unauthorized or illegal actions, like hacking, fraud or buying/selling illegal goods.

Cell Phone Usage

We allow use of cell phones at work although, we also want to ensure that your devices will not distract you from your
work or disrupt our workplace.

We encourage you to follow these simple rules:

 Use your cell phone in a manner that benefits your work.
 Keep personal calls brief and use an empty room or common area so as not to disturb your colleagues.
 Avoid playing games on your phone or texting/calling excessively.
 Do not use your phone to record confidential information.
 Also, you must not use your phone in areas where cell phone use is explicitly prohibited. (e.g. class rooms /
laboratories)

Sending/Receiving Messages and Content

Do not spam other people’s e-mails, including your coworkers.
In general, use strong passwords, do not forget to log out, and be vigilant in catching e-mails that carry malware or phishing
attempts. If you are not sure that an e-mail you received is safe, ask our [Technical Personnel].

Social Media Usage

We want to provide practical advice to prevent careless use of social media in our workplace. We address two types of
social media uses: using personal social media at work and representing our company through social media.

Using Personal Social Media at Work

You are permitted to access your personal accounts at work but, we expect you to act responsibly according to our
policies and ensure that you stay productive.

Specifically, we ask you to:

 Discipline yourself. Avoid getting sidetracked by your social platforms.
 Add time constraints if necessary to prevent getting distracted from your important tasks.
 Avoid any defamatory, offensive or derogatory content. You violate our company’s anti-harassment policy if
you direct such content towards colleagues, clients or partners.
 Ensure others know that your personal account or statements do not represent our company. For example, use
a disclaimer such as “In my own opinion...”
 Avoid sharing intellectual property (e.g. trademarks/logos) or confidential information. Ask your manager or
PR first before you share company news that is not officially announced.

Representing our Company through Social Media

If you handle our social media accounts or speak on our company’s behalf, we expect you to protect our
company’s image and reputation.

Specifically, you should:

  Be respectful, polite, and patient.
 Avoid speaking on matters outside your field of expertise when possible.
 Follow our confidentiality and data protection policies and observe laws governing copyrights, trademarks,
plagiarism, and fair use.
 Coordinate with our [Marketing Department] when you are about to share any major-impact content.
 Avoid deleting or ignoring comments for no reason.
 Correct or remove any misleading or false content as quickly as possible.
 Refrain from usage when experiencing conflict of interests, your personal goals are no longer aligned with
your responsibilities towards us.

In other cases, you may be faced with an ethical issue. For example, accepting a bribe may benefit you financially, but it is
illegal and against our business code of ethics. If we become aware of such behavior, you will lose your job and may face
legal trouble.

For this reason, conflicts of interest are a serious issue for all of us. We expect you to be vigilant, to spot circumstances that
create conflicts of interest either to yourself or for your direct reports. Follow our policies and always act in our company’s
best interests. Whenever possible, do not let personal or financial interests get in the way of your job. If you are
experiencing an ethical dilemma, talk to your manager or HR and we will try to help you resolve it.

Conflicts Of Interest
Employees must avoid having a personal, business, financial, or other interest, activity or relationship, outside or inside the
work environment that has or may be in conflict with Kinect Academy or its students. Any material transaction or
relationship that may give rise to an actual or perceived conflict of interest should be discussed with your manager or HR.

Conflicts of interest may include, but are not limited to, the following situations:
 Having a romantic relationship with another employee, a student, or a prospective student.
 Obtaining a personal financial benefit in any use, sale, or loan of company property.
 Performing services for students outside those consistent with Kinect Academy’s mission of providing higher
education and career training programs.
 Using or disclosing any confidential information gained during employment for an employee’s personal benefit or the
benefit of others.

Employee Relationships
We want to ensure that relationships between employees are appropriate and harmonious. We outline our guidelines and we
ask you to always behave professionally.

Friendships at Work
Employees who work together may naturally form friendships either in or outside of the workplace. We encourage this
relationship between peers, as it can help you communicate and collaborate. But, we expect you to focus on your work and
keep personal disputes outside of our workplace.

Workplace Visitors
If you want to invite a visitor to our offices, please ask for permission from your [Manager] first and inform our
[reception/gate] of your visitor’s arrival. Visitors should sign in and show identification. They will receive passes and will
be asked to return them to [reception/gate] once their visit is complete.

When you have office visitors, you also have responsibilities. You should:
 Always tend to your visitors, especially when they are underage.
 Keep your visitors away from areas where there are dangerous machines, chemicals, confidential records, or sensitive
equipment.
 Prevent your visitors from coaxing your colleagues, gathering donations, or requesting participation in activities while
within our premises.
 Anyone who delivers orders, mail, or packages for employees should remain at our building’s reception or gate. If you
are expecting a delivery, [security guards] will notify you so that you may collect it.
