COWORX STAFFING SERVICES FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Who do I work for? Even though you are doing work associated with a different company, you still are an employee of CoWorx Staffing Services – not the company who assigns you work.

What is a state W4 form? You only need to check the “State W4” box on the application if you’d

like to claim a different filing status or numbers of dependants for your state taxes than you are claiming for your federal taxes

Who fills out the “Company Information” section? Your Supervisor or Account Exec.

What parts of the W4 form do I need to fill out? It is important to make sure you check your filing

status on line 3 and fill in the number of exemptions you’d like to claim on line 5. In addition, please make certain you sign the form.

Do I really need to sign all of these forms? Yes. We apologize for the length of the application

packet, but all forms are required for us to begin processing your payroll.

How fast will my funds be available if I opt for direct deposit? Your funds will be available 2 banking days after your timesheet has been processed. In many cases, this is faster than your check can be delivered to you via the mail. This an optional service provided by us for you but we highly recommend you take advantage of it. See the Direct Deposit Authorization form for more details.

How can I insure speedy processing of my paycheck? Make sure they are filled out completely

and accurately. Timesheets submitted with wrong or missing information will cause delays. Timesheets that do not include a supervisor’s approval signature will not be processed. Timesheets submitted by 12:00 Noon Eastern Time will be processed and the corresponding check mailed the same day they are received. Timesheets submitted after this deadline will be processed and mailed the next business day.

How do I get reimbursed for expenses? If the company you are working at allows for expense

reimbursements, you must mail your original receipts to us accompanied by a signed reimbursement form. Ask your Supervisor or Account Exec for a copy of the form.

There is a lot of information in this packet. How can I remember it all? We suggest that you

make and keep a photocopy of your completed application prior to submitting it us so that you can reference it later should you need to.

Who will send me my W2 and when will I get it? Since you will be an employee of CoWorx (and

not the company you will be working at), you will receive your W2 from us. Your W2 will be mailed by January 31st of the year following a year you are employed by us. If you move, please inform us of your new address – even if you have completed your employment with us, so we may send your W2 to the correct location.

What if I have a question that wasn’t answered on this FAQ? WE’RE HERE TO HELP! Should

you have any questions now or during the course of your employment with us, please do not hesitate to contact our Client Services Department: 908-757-7979 (ext. 6991) or 800-754-7000 (ext. 6991)

PERSON TO BE NOTIFIED IN CASE OF EMERGENCY Name Phone Number Alternate Phone Number _ _ _ _

I understand that nothing in this employment application, the company’s statements or personnel guidelines, or in my communications with any company official is intended to create an employment contract between the company and me. No promises regarding employment have been made to me and I understand that no such promise or guarantee is binding upon the company unless it is made in writing and signed by the company President. I understand that if an employment relationship is established, I have a right to terminate my employment at any time. I also understand that the company retains the absolute right to terminate my employment at any time with or without cause and with or without prior notice. I also understand that the company has the right at any time, with or without notice, in an individual case or generally, to unilaterally change, modify, revoke, suspend or terminate its policies. Subject to applicable state law, CoWorx will deny worker’s compensation claims made by employees to the full extent permitted by law, where such injury, illness or death was the result of or caused by the employee’s own willful or intentional misconduct, including but not limited to injury, illness or death resulting from intoxication from the unlawful use of controlled substances. Accordingly, in the event of a work-related injury, CoWorx requires an employee to submit to a post-accident drug test in accordance with its established employment policies to the extent permitted by applicable law. I hereby certify that the statements made by me in this employment application are true and accurate, and I further understand that CoWorx has and will rely upon the statements made by me in this employment application in securing a temporary or permanent job position, as the case may be.

INSTRUCTIONS

PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE COMPLETING THIS FORM. Anti-Discrimination Notice. It is illegal to discriminate against any individual (other than an alien not authorized to work in the U.S.) in hiring, discharging, or recruiting or referring for a fee because of that individual’s national origin or citizenship status. It is illegal to discriminate against work eligible individuals. Employers CANNOT specify which document(s) they will accept from an employee. The refusal to hire an individual because of a future expiration date may also constitute illegal discrimination. Section 1 – Employee. All employees, citizens and noncitizens, hired after November 6, 1986, must complete Section 1 of this form at the time of hire, which is the actual beginning of employment. The employer is responsible for ensuring that Section 1 is timely and properly completed.

If an employee is rehired within three (3) years of the date this form was originally completed and the employee’s work authorization has expired or if a current employee’s work authorization is about to expire (reverification), complete Block B and:

-

Preparer/Translator Certification. The Preparer/Translator Certification must be completed if Section 1 is prepared by a person other than the employee. A preparer/translator may be used only when the employee is unable to complete Section 1 on his/her own. However, the employee must still sign Section 1. Section 2 – Employer. For the purpose of completing this form, the term “employer” includes those recruiters and referrers for a few who are agricultural associations, agricultural employers or farm labor contractors. Employers must complete Section 2 by examining evidence of identity and employment eligibility within three (3) business days of the date employment begins. If employees are authorized to work, but are unable to present the required document(s) within three business days, they must present a receipt for the application of the document(s) within three business days and the actual document(s) within ninety (90) days. However, if employers hire individuals for a duration of less than three business days, Section 2 must be completed at the time employment begins. Employers must record: 1) document title; 2) issuing authority; 3) document number, 4) expiration date, if any; and 5) the date employment begins. Employers must sign and date the certification. Employees must present original documents. Employers may, but are not required to, photocopy the document(s) presented. These photocopies may only be used for the verification process and must be retained with the I-9. However, employers are still responsible for completing the I-9. Section 3 – Updating and Reverification. Employers must complete Section 3 when updating and/or reverifying the I-9. Employers must reverify employment eligibility of their employees on or before the expirations date recorded in Section 1. Employers CANNOT specify which document(s) they will accept from an employee.

If an employee’s name has changed at the time this form is being updated/ reverified, complete Block A.

If an employee is rehired within three (3) years of the date this

form was originally completed and the employee is still eligible to be employed on the same basis as previously indicated on the form (updating), complete Block B and the signature block.

- Photocopying and Retaining From I-9. A blank I-9 may be reproduced, provided both sides are copied. The Instructions must be available to all employees completing this form. Employers must retain completed I-9s for three (3) years after the date of hire or one (1) year after the date employment ends, whichever is later. For more detailed information, you may refer to the INS Handbook for Employers, (Form M-274). You may obtain the handbook at your local INS office. Privacy Act Notice. The authority for collecting this information is the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, Pub. L. 99-603 (8 USC 1324a). This information is for employers to verify the eligibility of individuals for employment to preclude the unlawful hiring, or recruiting or referring for a fee, of aliens who are not authorized to work in the United States. This information will be used by employers as a record of their basis for determining eligibility of an employee to work in the United States. The form will be kept by the employer and made available for inspection by officials of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service, the Department of Labor and the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices. Submission of the information required in this form is voluntary. However, an individual may not begin employment unless this form is completed, since employers are subject to civil or criminal penalties if they do not comply with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986. Reporting Burden. We try to create forms and instructions that are accurate, can be easily understood and which impose the least possible burden on you to provide us with information. Often this is difficult because some immigration laws are very complex. Accordingly, the reporting burden for this collection of information is computed as follows: 1) learning about this form, 5 minutes; 2) completing the form, 5 minutes; and 3) assembling and filing (recordkeeping) the form, 5 minutes, for an average of 15 minutes per response. If you have comments regarding the accuracy of this burden estimate, or suggestions for making this form simpler, you can write to the Immigration and Naturalization Service, HQPDI, 425 I Street, N.W., Rook 4034, Washington, DC 20536.

examine any document that reflects that the employee is authorized to work in the U.S. (see List A or C), record the document title, document number and expiration date (if any) in Block C, and complete the signature block.

COWORX STAFFING SERVICES (“COWORX”) RESPONSIBILITY AND RELEASE PROGRAM

CoWorx Staffing Services (“CoWorx”) has been contracted by our client to provide you with a job and our payroll service. As your employer, CoWorx will be responsible for all your deductions and tax reporting. This application is designed to acquaint you with CoWorx and provide you with information about employee benefits and some of the policies affecting the terms and conditions of your employment. You should read and understand the provisions of this application. You may direct any questions regarding this application to the Director of Human Resources at CoWorx (800-754-7000). It describes many of your responsibilities as an employee and outlines the programs developed by CoWorx to benefit employees. No employee application can anticipate every circumstance or question about policy. As CoWorx continues to grow, the need may arise, and CoWorx expressly reserves the right to revise, supplement, modify or rescind any policies or portions of this application without prior notice as it deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. The policies and procedures described in this application should not be interpreted as creating any promise of any kind by CoWorx. All CoWorx employees are employed at-will and, therefore, either you or CoWorx may terminate the employment relationship at any time with or without cause and with or without advance notice. This application is not a contract of employment. No one other than the President of CoWorx may alter or modify any of the policies in this application and only written agreements signed by the President with respect to the terms and conditions of employment will be acknowledged by CoWorx. No statement or promise by a supervisor, manager or department head may be interpreted as a change in policy nor will it constitute an agreement with an employee. I, the undersigned, an employee of CoWorx Staffing Services or any subsidiary, affiliate or related company (hereinafter “the Agency”), agree to accept a temporary assignment to _________________________ or any subsidiary or affiliate (hereinafter “the Client”). As a precondition to receiving such an assignment, I acknowledge the following:

1. I understand that I am an employee of the Agency and not of the Client and that I will not participate in the Client’s pension plan or any other employee benefit plans established by the Client for its employees. I will be paid directly by the Agency.

2. I understand that the assignment is a temporary one, the length of which may be increased or decreased or

terminated at any time for any reason with or without advance notice to me.

3. I acknowledge that I have not been guaranteed any specific length of assignment by the Agency.

4. I understand that I am an at-will employee. Either the Agency or I can terminate my employment at any time, for any reason, with or without advance notice.

5. I understand that any problems or complaints I may have regarding the assignment must be directed to my

supervisor and CoWorx’s Director of Human Resources at 800-754-7000 extension 3039.

6. I understand that my rate of pay from the Agency may be greater or lesser than that received by other individuals who are performing similar services for the Client, regardless of whether they are employees of the Client.

7. I understand that no promotions or other forms of advancement or transfer by the Client may be available now or

in the future.

8. All work hours outside of my normal work assignment, whether overtime or not, must be pre-approved by my supervisor before being worked. While the company does and will comply with all applicable state and federal laws concerning the payment of overtime, violation of this policy will subject me to discipline up to and including discharge.

Page 9: WELCOME TO COWORX STAFFING SERVICES · PDF filein its entirety and return it to us via fax or mail. No paychecks can be processed until we receive ... CoWorx Staffing Overtime Policy

9. When my assignment ends I am required to notify CoWorx within 24 hours of my assignment’s completion and

availability for work prior to collecting Unemployment Insurance Benefits. Upon learning of my separation from the Client for any reason, I must contact CoWorx. Reasons for separation include but are not limited to a satisfactorily completed assignment, termination, lay off, separation due to lack of work, etc. I am required to contact CoWorx a minimum of once a week thereafter to inform CoWorx of my availability for employment. If I do not notify CoWorx that my assignment has been completed, it will be considered that I have "voluntarily quit" working for CoWorx and my eligibility to collect Unemployment Insurance Benefits may be affected as determined by applicable state law.

California residents must notify us under California Unemployment Law.

10. Should I have a work related injury while employed by CoWorx, it is my responsibility to immediately notify my

supervisor and CoWorx’s Workers Compensation Department at 1-800-754-7000 extension 3038. If I am unable to notify CoWorx, my supervisor can do so for me. Failure to do this immediately or as soon as practical after sustaining an injury could jeopardize my claim to any benefits. When I notify CoWorx, I will be directed to one of their medical care providers (this applies only in states that allows CoWorx to direct medical care). If I choose not to use the medical care providers chosen by CoWorx, it could jeopardize my right to any benefits for medical treatment.

I hereby authorize and agree to submit to a drug and alcohol test to be administered at the time of treatment for a work-related injury in the states that permit CoWorx to require such testing. I understand that positive test results could negatively effect my eligibility for workers’ compensation benefit subject to applicable state law and pursuant to CoWorx’ Drug and Alcohol Policy, which is included in the Employment Package.

PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTION (S):

Have you, the undersigned, worked as an employee of the Client and/or any of the Client’s subsidiaries or affiliates (please check one)? Yes No

If “Yes,” please state the date your employment ended: _______/_______/_______ If you answered “Yes” to the question above, please state in the space provided the reason why your employment ended. _____________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ I have read and received a copy of the CoWorx Responsibility and Release Program outlining certain policies and procedures of CoWorx. I hereby certify that the statements made by me in this employment application are true and accurate, and I further understand that CoWorx has and will rely upon the statements made by me in this employment application in securing a temporary or permanent job position, as the case may be. In the event that CoWorx determines that I have made any false statements, misrepresentations or failed to disclose any information requested herein, CoWorx reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion to decline further consideration of my job application, rescind any job offer, terminate my employment and to the extent permitted by law, a workers’ compensation claim will be denied, if appropriate. __________________________________________ _______/_______/_______ (PRINT NAME) (DATE) __________________________________________ (SIGNATURE)

Accordingly, in accordance with the Americans With Disabilities Act, following an offer of employment, CoWorx may request that employees identify whether they are able to perform the essential functions of the job to which they are assigned, with or without a reasonable accommodation. Rhode Island Residents Only: Under Rhode Island state law, CoWorx is permitted to deny worker’s compensation claims within the first two years of your employment, should you provide false information or intentionally fail to disclose your prior worker’s compensation history, if the false or omitted information is directly related to the injury which is the basis of your new worker’s compensation claim.

DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY STATEMENT

DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY POLICY STATEMENT CoWorx is committed to providing a workplace free of alcohol misuse and illegal drug use. Our commitment to a safe workplace is jeopardized when any CoWorx employee abuses drugs or alcohol on the job, comes to work under the influence of such substances, or possesses, distributes or sells illegal substances in the workplace. Therefore, CoWorx has established the following policy: It is a violation of company policy for any employee to possess, sell, trade or offer for sale any narcotics, drugs, alcohol or other controlled substances on the job, on the premises of CoWorx or any of its clients. Any illegal substances that are discovered in the possession of employees immediately will be turned over to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and may result in criminal prosecution as well as disciplinary action, including but not limited to termination of employment. Employees who are under the influence of illegal drugs or alcohol, or who possess or consume alcohol on the job, have the potential for interfering with their own as well as their co-workers’ safe and efficient job performance. Accordingly, any employee who reports to work under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol will be subject to disciplinary action, including but not limited to termination of employment. If an employee appears to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol, either CoWorx or its client may, as state law permits, require that an employee submit to a drug and/or alcohol test, at CoWorx’ expense, to determine the presence of alcohol and/or illegal drugs in the employee’s system. If the employee tests positive for alcohol or drugs, or if the employee refuses to take the test, CoWorx may impose disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. This policy applies to the abuse by any employee of legally prescribed drugs as well as drugs without a prescription. If an employee is prescribed a drug for medical reasons, he or she will be required to document that fact with the Medical Review Officer by supplying an appropriate doctor’s note, at the time, if any, when a drug and alcohol test is required. The Medical Review Officer will maintain such records as confidential, notifying CoWorx only on a need-to-know basis, e.g. to provide a reasonable accommodation for a disability. To the extent permitted by law, employees convicted of sale or possession of illegal substances may be terminated regardless of whether or not their misconduct occurs on or off the premises of CoWorx or its client. CoWorx further reserves the right to decline payment of workers’ compensation benefits to any employee who tests positive for drugs or alcohol in connection with any work-related injury. DRUG AND ALCOHOL TESTING Pre-Employment Drug Testing: After a conditional offer of employment is made, CoWorx may require a candidate for employment to submit to a drug and alcohol screen. Any conditional offer of employment made by CoWorx shall be subject to and contingent upon the successful completion of a drug and alcohol screen, where applicable. Post-Accident Drug Testing: Subject to applicable State and Federal law, CoWorx will require employees injured on the job to submit to a drug and alcohol test to confirm that the accident or injury

Page 15: WELCOME TO COWORX STAFFING SERVICES · PDF filein its entirety and return it to us via fax or mail. No paychecks can be processed until we receive ... CoWorx Staffing Overtime Policy

was not caused by the use of alcohol or controlled substances. In the event that the drug and/or alcohol test is positive, CoWorx will deny any worker’s compensation claim filed by the injured employee to the extent permitted by state law and also may impose other disciplinary action up to and including termination. Reasonable Suspicion Drug Testing: As permitted CoWorx will require employees to submit to a drug and/or alcohol test when the company has received information or observed behavior that would cause a reasonable person to believe that the employee is demonstrating signs of impairment due to the use of alcohol or illegal drugs Follow-Up Testing: If and when an employee shall be referred to an employee assistance program or to rehabilitation as a result of a violation of this policy, CoWorx shall conduct follow-up testing (as permitted) once per year for a two-year period following the completion of the program. CONFIDENTIALITY

CoWorx will endeavor to protect each employee’s privacy by maintaining confidentiality with respect to actions taken pursuant to this policy. Information relating to investigations, possible employee violations, and medical tests will be communicated only to those persons with a need to know. To the extent that CoWorx must discuss any issue under this policy with employees, those employees shall be instructed to keep confidential any information so discussed. Any notes, reports or other records generated and all information gathered under this policy will be treated as confidential with disclosure limited to those with a need to know.

REFUSAL TO SUBMIT TO A DRUG/ALCOHOL TEST

Any employee who refuses to submit to a drug and/or alcohol test under this policy may be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. In the event that an employee refuses to submit to post-accident drug and/or alcohol testing, CoWorx will, to the extent permissible under state law, deny that employee’s claim for worker’s compensation benefits or other medical benefits. MEDICAL REVIEW OFFICER CoWorx has contracted with a Medical Review Officer who has been designated by CoWorx to advise employees and job applicants relative to substance abuse testing and possible safety impairment from the use of legally prescribed medications. The Medical Review Officer shall be available to receive confidential reports from employees and applicants of prescription and non-prescription medications both before and after a drug/alcohol test. Employees and applicants have the right to consult with the Medical Review Officer for technical information regarding prescription and non-prescription medications. The Medical Review Officer shall be available to assist CoWorx and the employee or applicant in interpreting the results of any drug and/or alcohol screen and/or advise CoWorx relative to reasonable accommodations for disabilities. Employees with technical questions regarding prescription and non-prescription drugs may contact, anonymously, CoWorx’ Director of Human Resources at 800 754 7000 extension 2103 for phone number of our Medical Review Officer.

SUBSTANCES In its drug and alcohol screen, CoWorx will test for the presence of the following substances: Cannabinoids, Cocaine, Opiates, Benzodiazepines, Amphetamines, Barbiturates, Phencyclidine, Methaqualone and Propoxyphene. Other drugs and/or substances may affect the outcome of a drug test conducted in accordance with this policy. Prescribed medication could affect the results of the drug test.

Page 16: WELCOME TO COWORX STAFFING SERVICES · PDF filein its entirety and return it to us via fax or mail. No paychecks can be processed until we receive ... CoWorx Staffing Overtime Policy

Please contact our Medical Review Officer to determine what affect, if any, your prescribed medication may have on the drug test. Presently over the counter medication will not have any affect on the drug test. POSITIVE RESULTS AND CONFIRMATORY TESTING In the event that an employee’s drug test produces a positive result, CoWorx will arrange for the specimen previously provided by the employee to be re-tested. The results of the initial and confirmed test shall be submitted to the Medical Review Officer, who shall within 5 working days of the confirmed result, notify the employee or applicant of the result, the consequences and the options available to such person. Within 5 working days of notice of a confirmed positive result, the employee may submit information to the Medical Review Officer explaining or contesting the result and the reasons why such result is not a violation of CoWorx’ policy. In the event that the Medical Review Officer shall determine that the employee’s explanation is unsatisfactory, he/she shall notify CoWorx of a positive confirmed test result. EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AND LOCAL REHABILITATION PROGRAMS In an effort to provide employees with resources available to assist with rehabilitation, please contact CoWorx’ Human Resources at 800-754-7000 extension 2103 to determine if a local employee assistance and drug rehabilitation program(s) is available, to provide employees guidance. FOR FLORIDA RESIDENTS ONLY This policy has been promulgated in accordance with Florida Statutes, F.S.A. §440.102, which sets forth the requirements of a drug-free workplace. In the event any employee or job applicant institutes a civil or administrative proceeding pursuant to this section, the employee or job applicant, as the case may be, must notify the laboratory of any such action or proceeding.

I have received, read and fully understand the CoWorx Drug & Alcohol Policy and Procedures. I understand that I may be required to submit to a drug and alcohol test in accordance with CoWorx Policy. I also understand that some of CoWorx’ clients to which I might be assigned require drug testing as a precondition to working at that client’s facility. I hereby consent to permit the collection of blood, urine or other samples from me by a laboratory selected by CoWorx in order to conduct the necessary tests to determine the presence or use of alcohol, drugs or controlled substances. Further, I give my consent for the results and other medical information to be released to an authorized representative of CoWorx and/or CoWorx’ client. I understand that if I refuse to submit to a drug and/or alcohol test, that I may be subject to disciplinary action, including but not limited to termination of employment or may be ineligible to assignment at a specific Client.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND ANTI-DISCRIMINATION POLICY

CoWorx Staffing Services (“CoWorx”) confirms its commitment to equal employment opportunities and a workplace that is free from unlawful bias and/or discrimination. It is the policy of CoWorx to maintain a work environment free of discrimination by supervisors, co-workers or others on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, disability, veteran’s status, or any other basis protected by law (“Protected Categories”). Thus, all employees are expected to conduct themselves so as to maintain a work environment free of discrimination. Discrimination by an employee constitutes misconduct for which an employee may be subject to discipline up to and including termination of employment. Discrimination as used in this policy means differential treatment or harassment of an individual on the basis of such a person’s membership in a Protected Category. Harassment may take the form of verbal or physical conduct, including statements of written or displayed materials, on the basis of the Protected Categories. Sexual harassment consists of unwelcome sexual advances, request for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:

Submission to such conduct is made either an explicit or implicit term or condition of employment; Submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as a basis for an employment decision affecting an

employee; or Such conduct has the purpose or effect of interfering with an employee’s work performance or creating an

intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment. All allegations of unlawful treatment will be promptly investigated and appropriate action will be taken. Since our field offices are placed at various locations, it is vitally important for you to communicate with us when you believe you are experiencing conduct that is in violation of this policy. An employee who believes that he/she has been subject to discrimination, including sexual harassment, covered under this policy should report the incidents(s) immediately to their immediate supervisor and/or to Human Resources at our Watchung office: (908) 757-7979 or (800) 754-7000 Ext. 3039. If we do not hear from you, we will be unaware of the problem. When we learn of an allegation of unlawful treatment we will conduct a prompt and confidential investigation of the alleged incident(s) and take necessary action. The investigation will likely include interviews of the complainant, the alleged harasser and potential witness(es). All information shall be kept confidential to the extent possible. Each person with whom said allegations are discussed or each person interviewed in connection with said investigation shall be instructed to keep confidential any information discussed. All CoWorx supervisory employees must ensure that our work environment is free from conduct that constitutes harassment. Any individual found to have engaged in harassment or discrimination will be subject to discipline up to and including discharge. Further, no retaliation will be tolerated by CoWorx by either the individual(s) accused or any other employee for complaining, reporting or participating in the investigation of any incident of alleged harassment or discrimination.

CoWorx will be able to pay you via direct deposit approximately 2 business days (weekends and holidays are not business days) after receiving your completed Authorization for Electronic Payment Service form and your voided check/deposit slip.

You will continue to receive normal paychecks should you submit a timesheet during this implementation period. Once implemented your funds should be available in your bank account 2 banking days (weekends and bank holidays are not banking days) after the day CoWorx processes your timesheet. You will receive an Advice of Deposit in the mail, which will provide you with the information normally found on your check stub. IMPORTANT: CoWorx can not guarantee that your funds will always be available 2 banking days after your timesheet is processed. In addition, in the unlikely event that your funds are not available in 2 banking days, CoWorx will not refund any fees incurred by you due to the drawing of checks prior to the funds needed to cover them becoming available. It is recommended that you confirm with your bank that your funds have been received and are available before drawing checks against or withdrawing funds from your account.
