Employee Theft Policy
DFW Oil and Energy, LLC and it’s subsidiaries (The Company) values all employees and their property,
and expects that employees in turn value the company and its ass
ets.
The Company promotes an
organizational environment and culture that requires honesty and ethical behavior and encourages the
prevention of fraud and theft by raising awareness of the need for high standards of personal and
professional conduct. Fraudulent and dishonest behaviors are NOT tolerated. It is The Company policy to
promptly investigate any possibility of fraudulent or related dishonest activities against the Company
and, when appropriate, to pursue legal remedies available under the law. The Company will tolerate no
employee theft, or stealing of any kind, including fraudulent timecard reporting. That includes theft of
money, information, products, inventory, tools or any item, information or idea that belongs to the
company or to an employee, customer or business partner of the company.
As such, The Company expect all incidents of employee theft to be reported immediately to your
supervisor or HR Manager, along with any data or information you have observed or obtained. We
further retain the right to use video cameras and audio recording methods as well as software to
identify and detect employee theft.
Employees at all
levels are responsible for exercising due diligence and control to prevent, detect
and
report acts of fraud. Those who fail to carry out these responsibilities will be subject to disciplinary
action up to and including termination of employment.
Any act of fraud, theft, illegal acts, or misconduct ascertained upon investigation, or pursuant to a
criminal conviction, or through written acknowledgment by the employee(s) concerned, shall result in
the appropriate disciplinary and legal actions against the employee(s) and/or entities, to include the
possibility of termination of employment, restitution and/or forwarding information to the appropriate
authorities for criminal prosecution. The repayment of losses will be sought in all cases and the
Company will normally expect t
o recover all costs in addition to the recovery of losses.
