Employment Application

I hereby certify that I have personally completed this application, that the answers given by me are true and complete, and that no material fact has been omitted. I understand that any false statements appearing on this or any other employment form will be sufficient reason to end the further consideration of this application and not hire me; if discovered after my employment, such false statement will be sufficient reason for dismissal from the services of Del Mar Foods regardless of the time that has elapsed before discovery.

I authorize Del Mar Foods or its designated agents to contact my references and to investigate my past employment, education, credentials, Department of Motor Vehicles driving record, and other employment-related activities, without giving me prior notice of such disclosure. I agree to cooperate in such investigations and release those parties supplying such information to Del Mar Foods from all liability or responsibility with respect to information supplied to Del Mar Foods.

Where an outside company conducts such an investigation, I request, authorize and consent to the procurement of an Investigative Consumer Report and understand that it may contain information about my background, mode of living, character, personal characteristics and general reputation; where the job requires a credit check, a separate authorization will be provided. This authorization in original or copy format, shall be valid for one year from the date indicated next to my signature below. According the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I will be notified if employment is denied because of information obtained from a Consumer Reporting Agency. Additionally, I understand that if requested within 60 days, I will be given a full and accurate disclosure as to the nature and substance of all information provided.

Where a conditional offer of employment is made, I acknowledge it is contingent upon Del Mar Foods performing any of the following: drug and alcohol screening, medical fitness for duty, criminal convictions*, and when applicable to the job a credit check. Should a conditional offer of employment be made, a separate authorization and disclosures will be provided. (*) In accordance with company policy, an individual assessment will be made, including the information reviewed for job-relatedness and time since last conviction.

I understand that filing this application in no way assures me a position with Del Mar Foods, and that this application is not, and is not intended to be, a contract of employment. I understand that if employed, my employment and compensation can be terminated at will, with or without cause, and with or without notice, at any time, and at the option of either Del Mar Foods or myself. I further understand that no one other than the President of Del Mar Foods has any authority to enter into any agreement for employment for any specified period of time or make any agreement contrary to the foregoing.
