DEVELOPMENT

An important aspect of your work experience is togrow and develop both as an employee and aperson. We live in a constantly evolving world,where skill levels and performance standards arerising. It is important that each person is able andwilling to grow and develop.

The best way to develop is through feedback fromother people in the company. Coaching is theprocess whereby you receive constructive input thatallows you to improve. Without coaching, you maynever realize your full potential. Seeing allemployees reach their full potential is an importantpart of working for the company.

Coaching may require either giving or receivingnegative feedback. However, if you do not receivethe feedback, you cannot grow. Coaching alsoinvolves providing positive reinforcement so that youcan repeat the desired acceptable performance orbehavior.



We should not be afraid to either receive or givecoaching or feedback because it permits us tobecome better people and better at our jobs.Coaching should be done in a positive environmentwhere open discussion can take place.

January 2006


Coaching should be valued, encouraged andwelcomed. Coaching and giving feedback maycome from many different sources. It may comefrom a manager or co-worker. We can learn fromone another. This is what coaching and feedback isall about.

PROGRESSIVE DISCIPLINE

The purpose of this policy is to state IMAX’s positionon administering fair, equitable, and consistentdiscipline for unsatisfactory conduct or unacceptablebehavior in the workplace. The best disciplinary

measure is the one that does not have to beenforced and comes from good leadership and fairsupervision at all employment levels.

IMAX’s own best interest lies in ensuring fairtreatment of all employees and in making certainthat disciplinary actions are prompt, uniform, and



impartial. The major purpose of any disciplinaryaction is to correct the unacceptable behavior,prevent recurrence, and counsel the employee forsatisfactory service in the future.

January 2006


Disciplinary action may call for any of four steps:verbal/written warning, written warning, suspensionwith or without pay, or termination of employment,depending on the severity of the infraction and thenumber of Corrective Action write-ups received todate. There may be circumstances when one ormore steps are bypassed depending upon theseverity of the infraction.

Progressive discipline means that, with respect to

most disciplinary problems concerning employeeunacceptable behavior, these steps will normally befollowed: a first offense may call for a verbal/writtenwarning; a next offense may be followed by a writtenwarning; another offense may lead to suspension,with or without pay; and the final step may lead totermination of employment.

IMAX recognizes that there are certain types ofunacceptable employee behavior that are seriousenough to justify either a suspension or in somecases warrant immediate termination ofemployment.

By using progressive discipline, we hope that mostemployee unacceptable behavior issues can becorrected at an early stage, benefiting both theemployee and IMAX.

however, that the company may elect to skip any ofthese steps when it believes that in light of all factsand circumstances, it is appropriate to do so. Thisprocess applies to all employees.

STEP ONE:

VERBAL/WRITTEN NOTICE

In this step, the supervisor reviews the problem,obtains the employee’s acknowledgment that he/sheunderstands the performance requirement and therequired improvement, and obtains a verbalcommitment from the employee to improve. This

counseling must be documented on an EmployeeCorrective Action Notice Form and is therefore awritten record that informs the employee of what heor she did wrong and counsels them to correct theunacceptable behavior. If a written reprimand isgiven, it will typically be dated and signed by theemployee and employee’s supervisor.





suspend the employee pending investigation and/orconsultation with the Human ResourcesDepartment. As the employee is now suspended,this suspension is the final attempt by the companymanagement to give the employee one lastopportunity to respond to discipline, to correct his orher unacceptable behavior short of termination ofemployment.


The suspension will be without pay and can rangefrom two (2) to five (5) days, depending upon theseverity of the offense, and is decided bymanagement in conjunction with the HumanResources Department. The employee could alsobe placed on probation for a period of 30 days tofind out if this employee is capable of correcting hisor her unacceptable behavior in order to continueemployment. The written suspension will typically

be dated and signed by the employee and theemployee’s supervisor.

If an employee refuses to sign a written suspension,another member of management will witness thefact that the employee refused to sign. A copy willbe filed in the employee’s master personnel file.

STEP FOUR:

unsatisfactory or the employee violates the same ora similar rule, policy or practice, the employee isterminated for failure to demonstrate immediate andsustained improvement which must be documentedon an Employee Corrective Action Notice Form.



This is the final step when an employee has failed torespond or improve from the other corrective actionnotices (progressive discipline) to correct theirunacceptable behavior or unacceptable behavioralpattern.
