By my signature below, I agree to the following:

	a.	I consent to take any physical examinations, including but not limited 
                to tests for alcohol or drugs, that may be requested by The _________ 
                Corporation (1) following an offer of employment and prior to 
                commencement of work; and (2) during the course of my employment, 
                consistent with applicable law, including but not limited to the 
                Americans With Disabilities Act.  I further authorize any health care 
                professional who performs such an examination or who has other 
                information concerning my physical, mental or other medical status to 
                release such information to The _________ Corporation.

	b.	I understand that any false statements or misleading omissions made by 
                me in connection with my application, or in responding to requests for 
                information, will be sufficient grounds for my rejection as a candidate 
                for employment or for my immediate discharge.

	c.	I understand that any employment I might be offered by The _________ 
                Corporation is at- will and of indefinite duration, and that either I or

                or without notice for any or no reason, and that no agreement to the 
                contrary will be recognized by The _________ Corporation unless made in 
                writing and signed by the President of The _________ Corporation.  I 
                understand that satisfactory completion of my provisional period will not 
                change my status as an at-will employee.

	d.	I understand that none of The _________ Corporation's practices or 
                policies are to be construed as imposing any binding obligations on the 
                Company, and that they are subject to change or deletion at any time.

	e.	I hereby authorize The _________ Corporation to obtain from schools, 
                former employers, or other individuals or institutions it contacts, any 
                information in their possession regarding my employment history or 
                qualifications for the job for which I have applied.
