Subject: Rules of Wearing Identity Cards

As required by the company, all the staffs of Smart Movement Technologies are required to carry their identity card and this rule will start in the next five days.

The management is looking for a good cooperation from the staffs and members. The company has also made a strict rule to carry the identity cards every day to office. Misplacing or not carrying the ID card will result in marking as absent for all the employees. Let me remind that if you’re absent for 3 times a month, you will be deducted 30% of your salary in that month. If much more, you can absolutely be laid off. Management is making these strict rules for the safety and convince of the staffs and management.

For further related queries or issues, the staffs and employees can contact the Management Department.
