All clothing must be clean, neatly pressed and modestly fitted. See-through clothing is not permitted.
Bare mid-drifts (around the abdomen) may not be exposed and low cropped tops, miniskirts, tank-tops or spandex are not permitted.
Exercise clothing is also not permitted unless it is required for the work/activity performed.
Shoes must be clean, comfortable, safe and appropriate for the work being performed, i.e. closed toed shoes and steel-toed shoes where needed.
Undergarments may not be exposed.
Shorts, with the exception of short-shorts, may be worn during the summer months.
Jeans must always be in good repair and never torn or tattered.
Clothing that promotes alcohol, drugs and sex or promotes violence or other forms of oppression are not permitted. Profanity and/or put-downs may not be displayed on any clothing or accessories.

Whereas the nature of services provided by Good Shepherd Hamilton and the conditions of governmental funding, privacy legislation and Good Shepherd policy requires that information be handled in a private and confidential manner;

 I understand that in the course of the performance of my duties as a student, employee, contractor, volunteer, program participant or associated member retained by Good Shepherd, I will be working with, exposed to and/or have access to Confidential Information and agree that I will not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than in the normal course of my responsibilities without the express written permission of the Good Shepherd.

 I further understand and agree that information about our clients will not be released to outside individuals or agencies or to unauthorized persons within the agency without the written consent of Good Shepherd and/or the consent of the client except to follow legal or emergency guidelines. All memoranda, notes, reports or other documents compiled about our clients will remain part of the confidential records of Good Shepherd.
 In addition, personal or identifying information about Good Shepherd staff and volunteers (such as, but not limited to, names, addresses, phone numbers and salaries, health and other personal information) that is known by me through the course of my employment/association with Good Shepherd will not be released to persons not authorized by the nature of their duties to receive such information. Such information will not be released to outside persons or agencies without the consent of the staff person or volunteer; the only exception to this policy will be to meet legal requirements in an emergency.

I understand that any breach by me of the above obligations, resulting in the wrongful disclosure or use of the Confidential Information in the course of my employment/association with Good Shepherd may give rise to irreparable injury to the Good Shepherd and may subject me to substantial money damages and legal proceedings.

I agree to the Confidentiality Agreement.
