  CLASSIFICATION//HANDLING RESTRICTION              Month DD, YYYY
  
  Double slash separates classification from handling restrictions (e.g. CLASSIFICATION//NOFORN/NODIS)
  
  ACTION MEMO FOR CHOOSE AN ITEM
  
  FROM:            Bureau – Name
  
  SUBJECT:      (SBU) Use the Normal Capitalization Convention for Document Title (Titles must be portion-marked.)
  
  BLUF:            (SBU) Include maximum four lines stating the bottom line up front. Use Times New Roman 12-pt font and 1-inch margins throughout the body of the document and Times New Roman 10-pt for headers and footers.
  
  Recommendation(s)
  
  (SBU) That you succinctly state the specific action requested of the principal. Include a decision date at least five business days after the document is submitted; this requirement is firm. If a five-day window is not possible, bureaus must obtain approval from the S/ES front office or principal’s special assistants prior to submitting the document in Everest and must provide a compelling justification for the shorter timeline in the background section. (Approve/Disapprove by MM/DD/YY) Leave two lines of space after the recommendation.
  
  [If recommending multiple items]
  
  (SBU) That you:
  
  Succinctly state specific actions requested of the principal.(Approve/Disapprove by MM/DD/YY)
  
  Split memos should make clear which bureau(s) recommend and oppose each decision.Example:Bureau A recommends you approve an action.Bureau B opposes.(Approve/Disapprove by MM/DD/YY)
  
  Alternatively, Bureau B recommends you approve a different action.Bureau A opposes.(Approve/Disapprove by MM/DD/YY)Leave two lines of space after the last recommendation.
  
  Background
  
  (SBU) Use short, concise sentences in the active voice. Summarize relevant background, important updates, interagency or Congressional views, options for resolution, and implications of those options. There is a firm two-page limit for Action Memos.
  
  (SBU) While each action memo will be different, consider the following critical elements:
  
  ●Identify how recommendation/options align with – or would require adjustments to – current policies.
  
  ●Clearly explain the differences between options or why alternative approaches are not recommended.Explain how any risks (financial, policy, reputational, etc.) or negative consequences would be mitigated.
  
  ●Note differences of view among stakeholders, where applicable.
  
  ●Where additional resources (financial, personnel, security, etc.) are required to implement a decision, indicate whether they are available or would need to be identified. Clear with M, DGHR, BP, and F as needed.
  
  ●Indicate any follow-on action (e.g., planning, engagements, etc.) or any subsequent decisions for S that may be required.
  
  (U) Clearly identify any legislative or other deadlines associated with the decision. If the issue is particularly complex, you can attach brief additional background. Drafters should clear with all bureaus with equities in the issue.
  
  (U) Do not use Action Memos to recommend a principal’s participation in a call, meeting, or event – use the Invitation Memo template instead. DO use Action Memos to request domestic or international travel, and provide justification in the background section.
  
  Attachment(s):
  
  Tab 1 – Supporting Document [if signature is recommended, list signature item as Tab 1]
  
  Tab 2 – Additional Supporting Document [tabs should only be numbered when there are two or more attachments]
  
  When uploading to Everest, please input each recommendation from the Action Memo separately and include a brief description of each recommendation.

Policy

• Dress Code Policy

Dress Code Policy

Our organization’s objective in establishing a dress code is to permit employees to work comfortably, but safely within the learning environment. Employees must project professionalism at all times, as one never knows if potential or current customers, visitors or students may visit the company unexpectedly.

Due to the variance in business and industry models in which all companies revolve around, each simulated workplace is required to develop a dress code conducive to their company. The following template will assist and guide instructors and students in developing their company dress code.

All casual clothing is not suitable for the workplace. These guidelines will help the supervisor and employees determine appropriate dress for their company.

* Clothing considered suitable for hanging out, hunting, yard work, exercise sessions, or social events is not always appropriate for work environments.

Clothing that reveals too much cleavage, your back, your chest, your feet, your stomach or your underwear is not appropriate for a place of business, even within the Simulated Workplace classroom. * If you can trip over your jeans because the legs are too long it is a safety issue.
Even in a business casual work environment, clothing should be pressed and never wrinkled.
Torn, dirty, or frayed clothing is unacceptable.
Any clothing that has words, terms, or pictures that may be offensive to other employees, customers or visitors is unacceptable.
Clothing depicting the school or company logo is encouraged.
Sports team, university, and fashion brand names on clothing are generally acceptable.
Certain days may require specific dress. Interviews, presentations, field trips, or when visitors are coming to the classroom, employees may be required to wear a company shirt with clean jeans or kaki’s.
No dress code can cover all contingencies; therefore, employees must exert a certain amount of judgment in their choice of clothing. If employees experience uncertainty about acceptable or professional business casual attire, they are advised to ask the supervisor for approval.

Shoes and Footwear

Shoes and Footwear: (Enter type(s) of acceptable footwear) are acceptable for Simulated Workplace environments.
Flip-flops, slippers, and any shoe with an open toe are not acceptable at Simulated Workplace environments due to safety violations.
(Enter the type(s) of acceptable shoes/boots) shoes/boots are required in the manufacturing operation area.
Inappropriate attire for work includes:

Jewelry, Makeup, Perfume, and Cologne

Jewelry, makeup, perfume, and cologne should be in good taste. Remember, that some co-workers, customers or visitors may be allergic to the chemicals in perfumes and make-up, so wear these substances with restraint.
Body piercing should be limited and in some instances removed or covered, in order to compile with safety regulations.
Tattoos should be limited and in some instances covered, especially if they may be offensive to co-workers, costumers or visitors.

Hats and Head Covering

Hats are not appropriate in an office environment.
Head Covers that are required for (Enter required head cover(s)) safety regulations are required while working in the manufacturing area.
Head covers that are required for religious purposes or to honor cultural tradition are permitted.

If clothing fails to meet these standards, as determined by the employees and supervisor, the offending employee will be reprimanded in accordance to the disciplinary policies and procedures

• Tobacco Free Workplace Policy

Tobacco Free Workplace Policy

(Burma’s) Tobacco Free Policy is dedicated to providing a healthy, comfortable, and productive work environment for our employees.

Numerous studies have found that secondhand smoke is a major contributor to indoor air pollution. Breathing secondhand smoke (also known as tobacco smoke pollution) is a main cause of disease in healthy nonsmokers, including heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease, and lung cancer. The National Cancer Institute determined in 1999 that secondhand smoke is responsible for the early deaths of up to 65,000 Americans annually. The Americans with Disabilities Act, which requires that disabled persons have access to public places and workplaces, deems impaired respiratory function to be a disability.

The U.S. Surgeon General has determined that the simple separation of smokers and nonsmokers within the same air space may reduce, but does not eliminate, the exposure of nonsmokers to secondhand smoke. The Environmental Protection Agency has determined that secondhand smoke cannot be reduced to safe levels in businesses by high rates of ventilation. Air cleaners, which are only capable of filtering the particulate matter and odors in smoke, do not eliminate the known toxins in secondhand smoke. A significant amount of secondhand smoke exposure occurs in the workplace.

Employees who work in smoke-filled businesses suffer a 25-50% higher risk of heart attack and higher rates of death from cardiovascular disease and cancer, as well as increased acute respiratory disease and measurable decrease in lung function.

Smoke-filled workplaces result in higher worker absenteeism due to respiratory disease, lower productivity, higher cleaning and maintenance costs, increased health insurance rates, and increased liability claims for diseases related to exposure to secondhand smoke.

In light of these findings, (Burma) shall be entirely tobacco free effective (Date). Smoking shall not be permitted in any enclosed company/school facility. This includes common work areas, auditoriums, classrooms, conference and meeting rooms, private offices, elevators, hallways, medical facilities, cafeterias, employee lounges, stairs, restrooms, vehicles, and all other enclosed facilities. This policy applies to all employees, clients, contractors, and visitors.

Copies of this policy shall be distributed to all employees.
