*Elements of staff training may be presented virtually.
** Supplemental/alternative trainings may be assigned after initial training is complete.
2. MJCCA Summer Day Camps shall pay the staff member the above rate of pay for all
services rendered while in its employ. Payment of the weekly earnings shall be made
bi-weekly after all responsibilities have been properly performed. All applicable taxes, FICA
and other such deductions as may be required by law, shall be withheld.
3. This is a temporary, seasonal, non-exempt position, which does not include MJCCA
benefits. However, the staff member is eligible to participate in the MJCCA 403(b) retirement
program.
4. The staff member is required to be at the Camp during the entire Employment Period
unless time-off or previous arrangements have been made with the Camp Director. Should
the staff member be unable to fulfill the entire employment period, voluntarily resign or be
terminated for cause (including, but not limited to, termination for violation of the Personnel
Policies), the Salary will be prorated to the date of termination.
5. Acceptance of this Offer of Employment shall not change or alter your status as an
employee at will. As such, there is no express or implied employment contract between you
and the MJCCA. There is no guarantee of employment for any period of time.
6. MJCCA Summer Day Camps shall provide the staff member, at the Camp's expense, with
workers compensation insurance. If the staff member requires medical care or prescribed
medications not covered by workers compensation insurance, the cost of such care shall be
the responsibility of the staff member.
7. In case of emergency and inability to contact parents of staff and/or other emergency
contacts, the MJCCA Summer Day Camps is hereby granted permission to secure any
additional medical and/or surgical treatment and hospital services upon advice and
recommendation of our camp medical staff.
As staff at MJCCA Day Camps, our greatest responsibility is to care for kids and make sure
kids feel cared for by providing appropriate supervision at all times.
Whenever a staff member has an assigned supervisory responsibility, they will be present,
engaged, and alert. They will continue to provide supervision until directed otherwise by a
supervisor or relieved by another staff member with appropriate supervisory qualifications
while maintaining the correct supervisory ratios for the current situation.
MJCCA Day Camps is a place to feel safe, physically and emotionally. We ask everyone to
commit to thinking about the physical and emotional safety of others before they act.
Staff members will use their best judgment and uphold camp policies for themselves, their
co-workers and campers to maintain a physically and emotionally safe environment. Staff
who are aware of an unsafe environment are expected to take immediate corrective action if
that is within the scope of their training and ability. If not, they are expected to immediately
notify their supervisor or other camp management.
3. Physical violence directed to any person or animal
As part of our effort to create a safe environment, we solve disagreements with conversation
to increase empathy and understanding. Physical violence is not tolerated.
Any staff member that engages in a deliberate act of physical violence against a person or
animal at camp will be dismissed.
At MJCCA Day Camps we develop meaningful connections, embrace differences, and take
care of one another. We treat each other with respect in all our interactions as a means of
showing support and appreciation for everyone in the camp community.
Verbal abuse includes harassing, labeling, insulting, scolding, cursing, or yelling at an
individual with the intent of frightening, humiliating, denigrating, or belittling that person. This
may include oral, gestured, or written language that attacks the self-concept of the victim,
making them feel powerless. We expect that all staff will strive to treat everyone with respect.
We are aware that in some cases, however, staff may inadvertently act in a way that is not
perceived as respectful but without the intent of doing harm to anyone else. We expect staff
to learn from their experiences and actively work towards being better communicators.
Regardless of intent, staff who continuously engage in patterns of verbal abuse will be
terminated.
Sexual harassment includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and
other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. All staff will abide by all MJCCA policies
on this matter.
All staff members have a responsibility to care for all campers at camp. In the eyes of our
community and the law, any physical relationship between a staff member and a camper is a
violation of this responsibility regardless of the ages of those involved.
While we acknowledge that our youngest staff members may be very close in age to our
oldest campers and may be engaged in personal and physical relationships outside of camp,
physical relationships between any staff member and any camper (including any Staff-
in-Training program participants currently enrolled as campers) will not be tolerated.
In the interest of protecting the physical and emotional safety of everyone at camp,
unapproved firearms and other weapons are not permitted.
No staff member will possess a firearm or other weapon unless specifically approved by the
Camp Director. This policy applies on-site at camp and during any off-site camp programs or
events. This policy is not intended to apply to tools used by staff as relevant for their jobs (for
example, pocket knives), though staff are still responsible for securing access to any
potentially dangerous tools. If staff have any questions about whether an item is considered
a tool or a weapon, they should consult with a member of the full-time team before bringing
the item onto camp property or to an off-site program or event.
Our time at camp together is precious. We ask everyone to commit to being fully present at
camp and to always think about the physical and emotional safety of others before acting.
We believe that use of alcohol and illegal drugs prevents staff from doing this effectively.
Staff members are not permitted to bring alcohol, illegal drugs, or other drugs with extreme
psychoactive or intoxicating effects onto camp property or any off-site camp programs or
events, nor to take possession of or use these substances. This includes usage of
prescription medication by anyone to whom it was not prescribed or for a purpose other than
for which it was prescribed. The only form of legal medicinal marijuana in Georgia is low THC
oil. No other form of medicinal marijuana will be permitted on camp property, regardless of
the prescriptions from other states that staff members may hold. Any staff members with a
prescription for a medication that could impair their ability to perform the essential functions
of their position must disclose this to the health center prior to the summer. Staff are
responsible for securing their medications so they cannot be accessed by campers. Facilities
are provided in the health center for this.
International staff members should be aware that the legal age for alcohol consumption in
the United States is 21 years old. When out of camp on time-off, staff of legal drinking age
who choose to drink will do so responsibly and with discretion. Any staff members,
regardless of age, may be terminated if their behavior (even off-site) is a negative reflection
on MJCCA Day Camps.
Any staff member who reports to their job while under the influence of any of the substances
described in this section will be terminated, regardless of if the substances in question were
consumed in a manner that is in accordance with the rest of this section.
CONTRACT TERMINATION
The staff member understands that if their employment is terminated prior to the end of the
Employment Period, their salary will be prorated to the date of termination of services and
will be paid after the current season has ended.
As set forth in the Offer of Employment, Completion Bonuses (a percent of the agreed upon
salary) will not be paid if the staff member is unable to work the entire designated
Employment Period, voluntarily resigns or is terminated for cause prior to the end of the
Employment Period.
SAFETY
All staff will use good judgment pertaining to each member’s safety, the safety of each
camper, and the safety of all those in our camp community. The essence of this section
includes physical and emotional safety.
For example:

MJCCA Policies
DRUG AND ALCOHOL-FREE WORKPLACE POLICY
PURPOSE:
The Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta, Inc. (“MJCCA”) is a Drug and
Alcohol-Free environment committed to the safety, health and wellbeing of our employees,
members, and other individuals in the workplace. The MJCCA has established this policy to
ensure that employees and management are provided guidelines for handling the use of
drugs, alcohol and other controlled substances in the workplace. As a condition of initial and
continued employment, employees are required to adhere to this policy. The Agency
encourages employees to voluntarily seek help with drug and alcohol problems.
SCOPE:
This policy applies to all employees of Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta, Inc. as
well as to individuals seeking employment by the Agency, independent contractors,
members, volunteers, and guests while on the premises. This policy also applies to anyone
representing or conducting business for the Agency during working hours as well as Agency
events.
POLICY STATEMENT:
Prohibited Behavior:
It is prohibited and a violation of our Drug and Alcohol-Free Workplace Policy for any person
covered by this policy to: • Manufacture, sell, distribute, dispense, possess, use, trade, offer
for sale, or offer to buy illegal or prescribed drugs or otherwise engage in the illegal use of
drugs during working hours. • Be in possession of or report to work with illegal drugs (e.g.
marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines, and phencyclidine) or other intoxicants,
including alcoholic beverages, in the employee’s system or possession. • Report to work
under the influence of or impaired by drugs and/or alcohol. • Consumption of alcoholic
beverages on or off the premises during work hours, with the exception of Company Events
(See Company Events).
Legally prescribed drugs are permitted provided the medications are prescribed by an
authorized medical practitioner and will not impair the person’s ability to perform his or her
job safely and efficiently or present a safety hazard to the individual and/or other persons.
Drug Testing:
To enforce this policy, the Agency may, require as a condition of employment that employees
to participate in a physical examination or testing by analysis of breath, blood, saliva, or urine
for the presence of alcohol, controlled substances, and/or illegal drugs in the employee’s
system. Where permitted by controlling law, the Agency may conduct drug and/or alcohol
testing to include but not limited to the following circumstances: • Pre-employment
(Applicant) and Re-employment – Upon receiving a conditional offer of employment all
applicants and rehires • Reasonable Suspicion and/or For Cause Testing – If the Agency has
reasonable suspicion that the employee is under the influence of alcohol, a controlled
substance, illegal drugs, or if an employee is observed violating this policy. • Employment
Status Change - When an employee seeks a transfer or promotion (ie. from seasonal
employee to year round employee), or returns from a suspension or a leave of absence. •
Post-Accident - When an employee causes, contributes to or is involved in a workplace
accident or injury that requires medical treatment by a healthcare provider, results in loss of
work time or causes damage to Agency property or equipment. • Post-Rehabilitation –
Employees who participate in a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program, either voluntarily
or as the result of a positive test will be subject to testing as a follow-up to their treatment
program where lawful. Testing will be conducted in accordance with controlling federal and
state law.
Notification of Convictions:
Any employee who is convicted of a criminal drug violation must notify the Agency in writing
within five calendar days of the conviction. The Agency may take appropriate action, up to
and including termination.
Company Events:
The consumption of alcoholic beverages at Agency events or functions, on or off the
premises, DOES NOT relieve employees from the responsibility of exercising moderation
and judgment so as not to present a danger to themselves, other employees, the general
public, or the MJCCA’s reputation. If an employee is unable to safely and legally drive his or
her vehicle, the employee shall not drive the vehicle and should take steps to ensure that
they get home safely from the Agency event or function through use of a carpool, taxi, car
service or other mode of safe transportation.
Searches and Inspections: No Expectation of Privacy:
Entering the MJCCA’s property constitutes consent to searches and inspections. If an
individual is suspected of violating the Drug and Alcohol-Free Workplace Policy or for other
legitimate business reasons, the employee may be asked to submit to a search or inspection
at any time as permitted by controlling law. Searches can be conducted of any personal
belongings brought onto the MJCCA’s property, including but not limited to lockers, wallets,
purses, briefcases, Agency vehicles, and workstations.
Consequences:
One of the goals of our Drug and Alcohol-Free policy is to encourage employees to
voluntarily seek help with alcohol or drug problems. However, if an individual violates this
Policy, the consequences are serious, including but not limited to immediate dismissal.
Violation of this policy includes:
• Test results indicating that the person is under the influence of alcohol or that illegal drugs
are present in an employee’s system. • Refusal to cooperate with the Agency in any test,
search or investigation, or failure to execute any paperwork or consent forms necessary for
examinations or test. • Possession of, distribution of, or consumption of unlawful or abused
drugs, unauthorized alcohol, or drug paraphernalia. • Tampering with or adulterating a test
sample. • Unlawful conduct on or off duty will result in immediate discharge of current
employees or disqualification of an applicant.
Employees who refuse to submit to testing or test positive for alcohol or unlawful drugs may
be disqualified from unemployment compensation benefits, and/or workers compensation
benefits for a workplace injury. Although the proper use of medication is not prohibited,
employees should consult with the employee’s supervisor when he or she is legitimately
taking medication which he or she has reason to believe may affect safety or performance.
Any prescription medication brought onto Agency property or taken aboard Agency vehicles
must be retained in its original container labeled with the names of the employee and the
prescribing physician. No employee may take another person’s medication. The law treats
the abuse of prescription medication as unlawful drug use. Any employee who believes that
this policy has been violated must immediately bring the matter to the attention of his or her
supervisor. If the employee feels that he or she cannot talk to his or her supervisor the
employee discuss their concerns with the Director of Human Resources. No employee will
suffer retaliation from the MJCCA because of a report made in good faith and/or because of
his or her assistance during an investigation. Violation of this policy will result in disciplinary
action, up to and including immediate termination. Please contact the Director of Human
Resources if you have any questions regarding this policy.
ASSISTANCE:
The Agency recognizes that alcohol abuse, drug abuse, and addiction are treatable
illnesses. We also realize that early intervention and support improve the success of
rehabilitation. To support our employees, the Drug and Alcohol-Free Workplace Policy:
Encourages employees to seek help if they are concerned that they or their family
members may have a drug and/or alcohol problem.
Encourages employees to utilize the services of qualified professionals to identify
appropriate sources of help.

The Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta is committed to ensuring the emotional
safety of our employees, members, and campers when using any form of social networking.
This Policy outlines general rules and guidelines of appropriate behavior that must be
followed to ensure that all staff, donors, members, volunteers, and campers are not
negatively impacted by the use of social media.
SCOPE:
This policy applies to all full time, part time, seasonal, temporary employees, and/or interns
of the Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta(“MJCCA”).
POLICY STATEMENT:
The MJCCA recognizes that during the course of your employment you will often learn
confidential and personal information about the MJCCA or its members through friends or
social networking. Some examples of these are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat,
Marco Polo, personal websites, blogs, and YouTube. All content included on a staff’s social
media profile is a reflection of the MJCCA and should align with the Agency’s policies and
expectations, regardless of whether or not the employee identifies as an employee on the
social media platform. Employees are also responsible for keeping the emotional and
physical safety of our staff, members, or campers in mind when using or discovering
personal information through social networking. Please note that this Policy is not meant to
prohibit employees from engaging in concerted protected activities which is lawful under
Section 7 of the NLRA.
Everything is Public. Employees should keep in mind that whatever is published on their
social media sites is public regardless of privacy settings. The opportunity for followers to
take screenshots makes even private accounts – or deleted posts – susceptible to being
shared publicly. Parents and members will often search online for staff profiles so be mindful
of how your online presence may be perceived. As a MJCCA employee, anything you post
on any social networking sites can be read by staff, members, and campers. It is critical to
keep in mind that you are an important ambassador of the MJCCA and as such, it is your
responsibility to always use good judgement and common sense when using social media.
We encourage employees to promote the MJCCA in a positive and inspirational way. In an
effort to provide you with general rules and guidelines on how you should participate in social
media networking, the following must be adhered to as a condition of employment.

1. Never disparage the MJCCA name or official logos. Respect all copyrights and
trademarks. Do not use or post trademarks, copyrighted information or logos unless

MJCCA and its staff, donors, members, campers/children, or volunteers of the MJCCA

or to defame any individual including but not limited to staff, donors, members,
campers, participants, or volunteers of the MJCCA.
Responsible:
1. All communications with campers via e-mail or through instant messaging and texting
must be kept “camp appropriate” and at a minimum.
2. Never publish inappropriate pictures of participants, campers, members, volunteers, or
staff on the Internet or send pictures via cell phone, e-mail, text, or instant message
unless authorized by management and in accordance with the guidelines set forth in
this Policy.
3. Never allow campers to be your “friend” on internet sites or ask campers to accept you
as a “friend” on their social networking sites.
4. Never add or create a link from my group page, profile or other sites to the official camp
website.
5. Be conscientious when mixing your personal and professional life when social
networking. It is strongly recommended and encouraged that Agency social networking
should be separate from personal social networking.
Ambassador:
1. Never allow pictures or video of oneself to be seen on the Internet and/or use the
Internet, social media, or e-mail in a way that would be considered unprofessional,
lewd, and compromise your ability to be considered a positive role model and
representative of the MJCCA.

any communication in your profile, blog, or other internet sites and social media
communications.

not limited to statements/comments posted on the Internet or other types of openly
accessible forums. Any violations of this Policy may result to disciplinary action up to and
including termination.
The Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta, Inc. (“MJCCA”) is committed to keeping
our employees safe and healthy. The most important protection against slip, trips and falls is
employee training, proper footwear, proper floor cleaning procedures, and awareness of the
surroundings.
SCOPE:
This policy applies to various departments with full-time and part-time employees of the
Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta, Inc. (“MJCCA”). This policy also applies to
substitute teachers, seasonal employees, and temporary employees.
POLICY STATEMENT:
The MJCCA is committed to keeping our environment safe and healthy for all employees,
volunteers, and members. Slips, trips, and falls (STF) are the second leading cause of
workplace injury in the United States. They account for approximately 300,000 injuries and
more than 1,500 deaths each year. The MJCCA requires employees to adhere to all safety
policies and procedures and report any unsafe conditions to security, customer service,
and/or their immediate supervisor.
EMPLOYEE REQUIREMENTS:
All employees of the MJCCA are responsible for wearing footwear that is appropriate to their
job responsibilities. Employees at the Weinstein School, Kuniansky Family Center, Day
Camp, fitness center, support services, security, and sports departments are required to
wear footwear that meets the following criteria:
QUESTIONS:
SCOPE:
This policy applies to all employees of the MJCCA. This policy also prohibits discrimination
and harassment by clients, customers, MJCCA members, vendors, contractors and other
non-employees at any MJCCA location or MJCCA event (such as work-related social events,
office parties, off-site and member events/programs). Employees are expected to be
particularly careful about what they say and do in these circumstances.
POLICY STATEMENT:
As part of its continuing commitment to equal employment opportunity, the MJCCA prohibits
any acts of harassment or discrimination on the basis of race; color; ethnic or national origin;
age; religion or religious creed (or belief where applicable); sex including pregnancy,
childbirth, breastfeeding or related medical conditions; sexual orientation, gender, gender
identity, gender expression, transgender status or sexual stereotypes); nationality,
immigration status, citizenship, or ancestry; age; physical or mental disability; veteran or
service member status; marital status; citizenship status; genetic information; or any other
category protected by federal, state or local law. By way of illustration only, and not limitation,
such prohibited harassment includes:
Violation of this policy will result in disciplinary action, up to and including immediate
termination. If you have any questions about what constitutes harassing or discriminating
behavior, please discuss these questions with the Director of Human Resources.
SEXUAL HARASSMENT:
NOTE: This policy prohibits inappropriate conduct that may not rise to the level of unlawful
harassment under federal or state law. If you violate this policy your employment may be
terminated, even if it does not constitute unlawful harassment.
Harassment can take many forms. Although it is not possible to list all types of conduct that
could be considered inappropriate under this policy, the following are some examples:
BULLYING:
The MJCCA does not tolerate abusive conduct, bullying or other intimidating or aggressive
behavior among employees or others covered by this Policy whether or not it is based on a
protected category. If an employee is found to be mistreating his or her colleagues,
participants, or members, we will take appropriate action to stop behavior.
Any employee who believes that this Policy has been violated by anyone must immediately
report their concerns to one of the individuals outlined in this policy.
Your Responsibilities - How to File a Complaint:
The MJCCA cannot resolve a potential policy violation unless it has been brought to our
attention. All employees are responsible for reporting possible policy violations so that we
can take appropriate actions to address any concerns.
Employees may choose to complain to the person whom they believe is harassing them to
stop the conduct from continuing. We emphasize, however, that nobody is required to
complain to the person whom they believe is harassing them. To assure employees will not
have to do so, we have provided alternative routes for employees to bring concerns to our
attention. It is very important that employees report concerns to a person charged with
responsibility for receiving these reports and for taking action. If you do not do so, we may
not learn about your concerns in a timely fashion. Therefore, any employee who believes he
or she is being subjected to unlawful harassment, bullying, or discrimination by a co-worker,
manager, supervisor, other individual (whether employed by the MJCCA or not), or who
believes that his or her employment is being adversely affected by such conduct, is obligated
and directed to report such incidents and any other observations of unlawful harassment or
discrimination to such employee’s supervisor and/or the Director of Human Resources. If the
employee feels that he or she cannot talk to his or her supervisor, or if the employee is not
satisfied after the employee speaks with his or her supervisor, the employee should discuss
his or her concerns with the Director of Human Resources. If the employee feels that they
cannot talk to the Director of Human Resources or if the employee is not satisfied after the
employee speaks with the Director of Human Resources, the employee should contact the
Chief Executive Officer. All levels of management are accountable for ensuring compliance
with this policy in their respective areas of responsibility. Any supervisor or manager who
receives any report concerning harassment, discrimination or retaliation, however
insignificant it may seem or how it was received (verbal or written), shall immediately contact
the Director of Human Resources.
Prohibiting Retaliation:
The MJCCA prohibits retaliation against any individual who, in good faith, reports
discrimination or harassment or participates in an investigation of such reports.
The term ‘retaliation’ includes any action subjecting an employee to offensive or
objectionable conduct or language, because the employee-initiated, participated in or
cooperated with a complaint of harassment or discrimination or otherwise refused to comply
with a harassing or discriminatory request that would otherwise dissuade the employee from
making or supporting the complaint. Retaliation against an individual for reporting
harassment or discrimination or for participating in an investigation of a claim of harassment
or discrimination is a serious violation of this policy and, like harassment or discrimination
itself, will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination. It is the obligation
of all employees to cooperate fully in the investigation process. In addition, disciplinary action
will be taken against any employee(s) who attempt to discourage or prevent any harassment
victim from using MJCCA’s complaint procedure or to report harassing conduct or otherwise
hinder an investigation. This no-retaliation policy applies whether a good faith complaint of
harassment is well-founded or ultimately determined to be unfounded. Filing groundless or
malicious complaints is an abuse of this policy and will be treated as a violation.
Intentionally False Claims Prohibited: We recognize that intentional or malicious false
accusations of misconduct can have a serious effect on innocent men and women. Filing
malicious false accusations is an abuse of this policy and individuals making such false
accusations of misconduct will be disciplined in accordance with the nature and extent of his
or her false accusation, which may include termination of employment.
QUESTIONS:
Questions regarding this policy should be directed to the Director of Human Resources.
The Agency reserves the right to modify, amend, supplement or replace this policy at any
time, with or without prior notice.

my employment or contract period.
I understand that if the MJCCA obtains a credit report about me, then it will only do so where
such information is substantially related to the duties and responsibilities of the position in
which I am engaged or for which I am being evaluated.
I understand that the information included in the background reports may be obtained from
private and public record sources, including without limitation and as appropriate:
government agencies and courthouses; educational institutions; and employers. Accordingly,
