24-hour patient cases refer to cases involving patients whose medical professional has determined that the patient needs assistance over a 24-hour period, but that the patient's condition permits a Caregiver working with that patient to receive at least 3 hours of breaks and 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep time during the 24-hour period. Therefore, during 24-hour shifts, Caregivers are expected to provide care to the patient for only 13 hours of the 24-hour case/shift and to receive a total of 11 hours of rest/breaks. This Sleep and Meal Period Agreement ("Agreement") outlines the terms and conditions of 24-hour shifts. Caregivers who wish to work on 24-hour shifts should carefully read this Agreement. No Caregiver will be forced to work a 24-hour case and any Caregiver who wishes to work a 24-hour case must sign this Agreement, to indicate their understanding of what 24-hour cases require and consent to work under those conditions.
Terms of 24-Hour Cases: Caregivers who accept 24-hour cases will be paid for all hours worked on each 24-hour/live-in shift. As state above, however, during each 24-hour shift, it is expected that Caregivers will only be required to work for 13 hours. It is expected that Caregivers will receive a total of at least 3 hours of "Bona Fide Meal Periods" and a 8-hour "Bona Fide Sleep Period," as those are defined below, for each full 24-hour shift. The hours spent in Bona Fide Sleep Period and Bona Fide Meal Periods (total of 11 hours per 24-hour shift) will not count as hours worked. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms are defined:
2414 Ralph Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11234 • T: 718-513-1222 • F: 718-887-0793 • Email: 1sthelphomecare@gmail.com
Recordkeeping: Should Caregivers not receive a Bona Fide Meal Period and/or Bona Fide Sleep Period during a 24-hour shift, it is critical that the Caregiver report this on his/her timesheet so that the Company can pay the Caregiver for all work time. Caregivers must document any interruption of meals or sleep on their timesheet or in writing/email and given to their coordinator within 10 days of the incident. The Caregiver should document they had adequate sleeping facilities on the 24-hour shift and confirmation that the Caregiver received at least 5 consecutive and uninterrupted hours of sleep during his/her Bona Fide Sleep Period; confirmation that the Caregiver's Bona Fide Meal Periods were not interrupted by a call to duty; if a Caregiver's Bona Fide Meal Period was interrupted, the total duration of such interruption; and if a Caregiver's Bona Fide Sleep Period was interrupted, the length of the interruption, and the times that the interruption(s) started and ended. If there are other circumstances or work time that a Caregiver believes should be paid, the Caregiver must write that on the timesheet so that he/she can be paid for all their work time. If no interruptions are reported on a timesheet or written on a document/email it should be assumed that the caregiver took the appropriate meals and sleep time as per the plan of care and this agreement
If a Caregiver believes that he/she was not paid for all hours worked, the Caregiver must contact the Human Resources Department immediately and report the actual hours that he/she worked so that the Caregiver can be compensated for all hours of work.
No Retaliation: No employee will be subject to any reprisal or other adverse action for reporting missed or interrupted meal or sleep periods. But any employee who knowingly submits a false report of work time will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

Purpose of the FAIR Program.
The Agency values each employee and looks forward to good relations with and among all of its employees. Occasionally, however, disagreements may arise between you and our agency or between employees in a context that involves the Agency We believe that the resolution of such disagreements will be best accomplished by internal dispute resolution and, where that fails, by external binding arbitration that is conducted by a neutral arbitrator. For these reasons, the Agency has adopted this Fact-Finding and Issue ResolutionProgram (the "FAIR Program"). The FAIR Program is effective immediately upon your execution of this document (the "Effective Date").
The FAIR Program is an essential element of Your employment and/or continued employment with the Agency.Although the FAIR Program Is a binding agreement between you and the Agency, It does not create a contract of employment for a specific term or otherwise affect the at-will nature of Your employment. You Indicate your agreement to be bound by the FAIR Program's terms and conditions by beginning or continuing your employment with the Agency.
What does the FAIR Program cover?
The FAIR Program applies to any and all Claims, regardless of when those claims arose or accrued or were first asserted, between You and the Agency (as these terms are defined below). For the avoidance of doubt, the FAIR Program applies to claims that accrued, arose, or were asserted before execution of this agreement and to claims that accrued, arose, or were asserted after execution of this agreement. The FAIR Program also applies to Claims that arise or are asserted after your employment with the Agency ends.
For purposes of the FAIR Program and this document, the following terms have the following meanings:
"The Agency" means 1st Help Homecare, Inc., each of its subsidiaries, affiliates, and successor entities, as well each of their partners, principals, owners, directors, agents, and employees against whom a Claim is asserted by You.
"You" and "your" refers to you and any other person who may assert your rights.
"Claim" includes any claim, dispute, allegation, controversy or action between you and The Agency that in any way arises from or relates to your employment with The Agency or the termination of your employment with The Agency, and that is based on a legally protected right (i.e., statutory, regulatory, contractual, or common-law rights). The term Claim includes, for example, any employment, labor, wage and hour, overtime, or compensation related claims. As further examples, the term Claim includes, without limitation, claims, disputes, demands or actions that may arise under the following laws (all as amended):
The above list is not exclusive, and is only provided to illustrate examples of Claims. All Claims, whether listed above or not, must be resolved through the FAIR Program.
Are any Claims excluded from the FAIR Program?
Yes. The term "Claim" does not include the following, which are for a court or an agency and not an arbitrator to decide:
The FAIR Program also does not prevent You from pursuing a claim based on alleged violations of any applicable collective bargaining agreement grievance procedure. Claims that are independent of rights under the CBA and/or that can be resolved without interpreting the collective bargaining agreement are not excluded from the FAIR Program. For instance, a claim alleging a violation of New York Labor Law, the Fair Labor Standards Act, or any other federal or state law is subject to the FAIR Program.
The FAIR Program also does not prevent You from filing a charge, testifying, assisting, or otherwise participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the equal employment opportunity commission, or another government agency to the extent You have a protected right to do so. But if You take such action in relation to a claim, controversy, or other dispute that would constitute a Claim and you have not fully pursued such dispute through the FAIR Program, The Agency may request the agency in question to defer its processing or investigation of such charge until the FAIR Program has been completed. Notwithstanding Your rights under this subsection. You agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by law. You may recover monetary relief with respect to a Claim only through the FAIR Program.
The FAIR Program does not require the Agency to begin arbitration proceedings or initiate any other procedure whatsoever before taking any action regarding your employment with which you might disagree, such as coaching, counseling, warning, reprimand, suspension, investigation, discipline, demotion, changing your days or hours of work, or termination.
Can a Claim be resolved in court? No. Under the FAIR Program, You and the Agency each waive your respective rights to have a Claim decided by a court, judge, jury and, where permitted by law, an administrative agency. Instead, You and the Agency agree that the internal dispute resolution (if any) and arbitration under the FAIR Program are the sole and exclusive methods for resolving Claims. If either You or the Agency files an action in court or another forum not contemplated by the FAIR Program asserting one or more Claims and the other party successfully stays such action andMr compels arbitration of such Claim, the arbitrator may assess reasonable costs and expenses, including an award of reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in seeking such stay and/or order compelling arbitration against the party that filed the action in court or such other forum.
How should You Raise a Claim under the FAIR Program? If You believe You have a Claim against the Agency, You should first give the Agency a chance to investigate and resolve the Claim before You file a demand for arbitration (the arbitration process is explained further below). You do not need to use any specific form to submit a Claim. Simply write a letter explaining your Claim and the relief sought, and submit the letter to the Compliance Officer listed in your Compliance Training Module. As part of this process, a Agency representative might meet with you to discuss your Claim. Or, depending on the nature of the Claim, the Agency will investigate the Claim on its own, such as by reviewing its records. If You do not receive a satisfactory response from the Agency within 30 days of the date that you submitted Your letter or if you disagree with the response from the Agency, You must follow the arbitration procedure set forth below if you wish to pursue the Claim.
The Arbitration Process
How much time do You have to file a Claim? An arbitration proceeding under the FAIR Program must be commenced within the time period prescribed by the statute of limitations applicable to the Claim being asserted. For purposes of statute of limitations, an arbitration proceeding is deemed commenced when a demand for arbitration is filed with ADR Systems. Filing an internal Claim under the FAIR Program will not extend the time period within which You must file a demand for arbitration.
How does the Arbitration process begin? To start the arbitration process, the party wishing to file a Claim must file a written demand in accordance with the rules of ADR Systems ("ADR") for starting the arbitration process. More information about the ADR may be obtained at www.adrsystems.com or by calling 312-960-2260.
How is the Arbitrator selected? All arbitrators must be licensed attorneys or retired judges selected from the ADR's regional Employment/Commercial Dispute Resolution Roster, or an equivalent list if such list is unavailable. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator must be a retired or former Judge or a lawyer who has at least 5 years of experience with employment-related claims. No person may serve as an arbitrator unless that person has confirmed in writing that he or she is bound by and will adhere to the requirements of the FAIR Program.
Can an attornev represent You? Yes. Any party may be represented by an attorney. If you need assistance finding an attorney, there may be resources available to you, such as the American Bar Association (www .amcricanbar.oru and 800-285-2221 or 202-662-1000) or the Legal Aid Society (www.legal-aide.org or 212- 577-3300 or 718-722-3100). Alternatively, You must represent Yourself.
When and where will Arbitration take place? The arbitration will be conducted by the arbitrator in whatever manner will most expeditiously permit full presentation of evidence and arguments of the parties. The arbitrator will set the time, date, and place of the hearing, notice of which must be given to the parties at least 30 calendar days in advance, unless the parties agree otherwise. In the event the hearing cannot be reasonably completed in one day, the arbitrator will schedule the hearing to be continued on a mutually convenient date. Any arbitration hearing will take place within the County of Kings, State of New York, unless the parties agree otherwise or the arbitrator, for the convenience of the parties, selects an alternative location.
What rules and law applv to the Arbitration? Arbitration under the FAIR Program will be conducted pursuant to the ADR's Employment/Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures. If there is any conflict between the FAIR Program and the ADR rules and procedures, the FAIR Program terms will govern unless application of such terms would cause the ADR to decline to provide its services, in which case the ADR rules and procedures will govern (except that under no circumstance will an arbitrator have the authority to hear or decide any Claim on a class, collective, or other group or representative basis). The arbitrator must apply the substantive law, including the applicable burdens of proof and persuasion, that would be applied by a court hearing the Claim in the venue of the arbitration. The arbitrator may grant relief that could be granted by a court hearing the Claim, including an award of attorneys' fees and costs, but will not have any authority to grant any other relief.
Can claims be heard or decided on a class, representative, or collective basis? No. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this is not permitted under any circumstance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary: (a) no arbitrator is permitted to hear or decide any Claim on a class, collective, or other group or representative basis; (b) all Claims between You and the Agency must be decided individually; and (c) the ADR's Supplementary Rules for Class Action Arbitration (and any similar rules) will not have any applicability to any Claim. This means that if You have a Claim, neither You nor the Agency will have the right, with respect to that Claim, to do any of the following in court or before an arbitrator: (a) pursue or obtain any relief from a class, collective, or other group or representative action; (b) act as a private attorney general; or (c) join or consolidate a Claim with the Claim of any other person. Thus, the arbitrator shall have no authority or Jurisdiction to process, conduct, or rule upon any class, collective, private attorney general, or other representative or group proceeding under any circumstances. If there is more than one Claim between You and the Agency, those Claims may be heard in a single arbitration hearing.
Who pays for the arbitration? The party claiming to be aggrieved is responsible for paying the first $200.00 of any applicable filing fee in effect and established by the ADR at the time the demand for arbitration is made. The Agency will pay the remainder of any applicable filing fee and will pay any administrative or hearing fees and the arbitrator's fees (except postponement fees or additional hearing fees resulting from actions or inactions of the employee or employee's representative). Each party will be responsible for its own attorneys' fees, witness fees, expenses and costs, but the arbitrator may award either party reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, to the extent a court hearing such Claim would award attorneys' fees under applicable law. However, if the arbitrator finds that the employee's or the Agency's demand for arbitration is frivolous or vexatious, or was not filed in good faith, the arbitrator may require the offending party to reimburse the other party for the arbitrator's expenses and fees. Any amounts required to be paid by You under this paragraph may be adjusted or eliminated to the extent necessary for the FAIR Program to be enforceable.
Will there be discovery or deDositions? Yes. All discovery will be governed by the ADR's rules.
Can You have witnesses testify at the arbitration? Yes. At the hearing, the parties will have the right to present proof through testimony and documentary evidence, and to cross-examine witnesses who testify at the hearing. The arbitrator will require all witnesses to testify under oath. The arbitrator(s) will also have the authority to decide whether any person who is not a witness may attend the hearing.
Miscellaneous Provisions
Choice of Law. The FAIR Program and the terms of this document shall comply with and be governed by the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and not by any state law concerning arbitration. The parties acknowledge and agree that the FAIR Program evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce.
Severability. If any part or provision of the FAIR Program or this agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such holding will not affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of the remaining parts, and each provision of the FAIR Program and this agreement will be valid, legal, and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, in the event the provision prohibiting class, collective, or representative actions is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, then the entire FAIR Program and this agreement will be considered null and void.
Notices. Any notice required to be given to You will be directed to Your last known address as reflected in the records of the Agency. Any notice required to be given to the Agency will be directed to the Agency's principal location in Brooklyn, New York.
Amendment. The Agency reserves the right to amend or terminate the FAIR Program. Such amendments may be made by providing notice to You, electronically or otherwise, of such amendment or termination. Your continuation of employment after receiving notice of any amendment to or termination of the FAIR Program will be deemed agreement to such amendment or termination.
Waiver. No waiver may be granted by either party, except in writing. No waiver of any provision of the FAIR Program will constitute a waiver of any other provision of the FAIR Program (whether or not similar), nor will such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided in such writing.
By signing below, You confirm that You have read and understand the terms and conditions of the FAIR Program, which require You to submit all Claims to binding arbitration on an individual basis.
