AUTHORIZATION AND
UNDERSTANDING

RELEASE OF PRIOR PERSONNEL
RECORDS

BY SIGNING THIS APPLICATION, I AGREE THAT ALL OF THE INFORMATION NOW OR LATER GIVEN BY ME IN SUPPORT OF MY application for employment is true and complete. I understand that you may verify any of the information concerning my employment, education, credit or medical history with the appropriate individuals, organizations, or governmental agencies. I give these individuals, organizations, or governmental agencies my permission to release any information that you need, including my previous disciplinary record, without requiring them to contact me or give me written notice before revealing the information to you. I understand that no verification of my credit history or request for a "consumer report" under the Fair Credit Reporting Act may be undertaken by you without my express written authorization in a separate document. By signing this application, and in the case of a consumer report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, should I sign the separate Authorization for credit reports on me, I release you and them from any liability whatsoever arising out of any information request or disclosure. I agree that any false information in support of my application may subject me to discharge at any time during my employment.

AT-WILL EMPLOYMENT
STATUS

I AGREE THAT FOR Supervision and Probationary Employee Status, EITHER PARTY MAY TERMINATE THE EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE, AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON, AND I FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS ARRANGEMENT MAY ONLY BE CHANGED BY THE Director OF South East Regional Emergency Services Authority (SERESA), IN WRITING, DIRECTED TO ME PERSONALLY, AND SIGNED BY THE Director. I agree that I shall be bound by the other rules, policies, regulations, and terms and conditions of employment of SERESA as they are from time to time changed and that no additional obligations can be imposed by me on SERESA except those which have been acknowledged, in writing, by the Director or his/her designated representative. I further agree that my employment is conditional upon satisfactory completion of documentation as required by the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 and until such time as the results of my pre-employment physical (if such physical is required) are known.

Handicap Accommodation Request

I UNDERSTAND THAT MICHIGAN LAW REQUIRES EMPLOYERS TO MAKE ACCOMMODATIONS TO HANDICAPPED APPLICANTS AND EMPLOYEES WHERE THE ACCOMMODATION DOES NOT IMPOSE AN UNDUE HARDSHIP ON THE EMPLOYER. I further understand handicapped employees and applicants may request an accommodation of their handicap by notifying SERESA in writing of the need for accommodation within 182 days of the date the handicapper knows or should know that an accommodation is needed. Failure to properly notify SERESA will preclude any claim that the employer failed to accommodate the handicapper under Michigan law.

I acknowledge that I have read the above statements and agree to its terms and conditions

AUTHORIZATION TO RELEASE INFORMATION

We appreciate your interest in employment opportunities with SERESA. As part of our normal procedure during the pre-employment process, we may perform a routine inquiry into your background based on the information you have provided us. In order for such information to be released, we need your concurrence. Therefore, please read the following statement carefully and indicate your agreement by signing below.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

I hereby authorize the South East Regional Emergency Services Authority (the "Employer"), or other authorized representative of the Employer, within one (1) year from the date hereof, to obtain any information in your files pertaining to my employment, military record, credit record, law enforcement record, medical or educational records, including, but not limited to, academic, achievement, attendance, criminal, personal history and disciplinary records. I hereby direct you to release such information upon request of the Employer or its authorized representative. I hereby release the Employer and any authorized representative, as custodian of such records, and any school, college, university, or other educational institution; hospital, or other repository of medical records; credit bureau; law enforcement agency; lending institution; consumer reporting agency; or other business establishment, including its officers, employees, or related personnel, both individually and collectively, from any and all liability for damages whatsoever, which may at any time result to me, my heirs, family or associates because of the Employer's request for and/or review of records described in this Authorization to Release Information. Should there be any questions as to the validity of this Release, you may contact me as indicated below.
