This coverage is offered through National Union and is intended to protect our clients against any losses that might occur. 6.1.2 Labor Ready requires that all temporary employees must be Safety Trained and pass a Safety 'Test before they are sent on any assignment, Because we specialize in almost 100% labor, the written training we provide is generally focused toward job -site safety, lifting techniques, and hazardous material issues. One way we guarantee your complete satisfaction is by requiring our workers to qualify on a behavioral sereening tool designed by American Tescor. Labor Ready also requires that all potential employees report to the focal branch before being assigned a job. We also provide drug testing for all Labor Ready employees at no additional charge. These placements may include employees that have successfully passed a drug screen in the past for other Labor Ready customers. Labor Ready will therefore drug test every employee that is assigned to the City Of Lubbock. Labor Ready dispatches employees through a process known as `Best Match Dispatch." Physcial abilities and work history determine which candidate is most suited to the job requests made by our clients. All Labor Ready employees are given a description of the job before being sent. If they feel they are not capable of doing the task, another employee is selected. All Labor Ready employees are given the opportunity to prove themselves physically capable of handling a task. Labor Ready is an Equal Opportunity provider and employs candi- dates without regard to race, sex, national origin, age, or disability. We rely on open communications with our customers to be sure that the employee sent fully meets their needs and is apporpriate for the job. 6.1.3 Labor Ready has the ability to run Driver License checks through The Department of Public Safetyand can usually obtain the result of a license check the same day it is requested. 6.1.4 Proposal Submittal Form Rate Sheet EXHIBIT A. -See attached. 02/20/2007 10:41 80G7410102 LABOR READY PAGE 04/11 RI'M6-083-MA, AddcnftiW I * *REVISED* * Temporary Employment Services - CITY OF LUBBOCK RFP406-083-MA Proposal Submittal Form Rate Sheet EXI MIT A The undersigned hereby offers to furnish and deliver the articles or services as specified herein and their proposal and proposed contract (ATTACHED) at the terms stated tbcrein and in strict accordance with the specifications, all of which are a part of this of u.

TrueScreen.com utilizes county and state records for all searches. Labor Ready also has additional guidelines that must be met before allowing it's employees to drive for one of our customers. Labor Ready requires all CDL drivers to provide us with a current DOT medical card and an MVR obtained from The Department of Public Safety.

Invoices include ticket numbers, name of the employee, name of the City of Lubbock supervisor that signed the ticket, and a copy of the original ticket as it was turned in to Labor Ready. Each department and site location is listed on a separate invoice, Invoices should be received by the accounting depart- ment no later than the following Thursday of each week. Billing questions are answered immediately end completely with just 9 phone call. Any dis- crepancies are addressed without delay and if necessary, credits are issued to remedy billing differences.
