EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY POLICY STATEMENT

It is the policy of Milwaukee Transport Services, Inc. (MTS) to provide equal employment opportunity to all qualified applicants or employees regardless of race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), age, genetic information, disability, marital status, national origin, military status, veteran status or any other characteristic protected by local, state or federal law. We are strongly committed to this policy and believe in the concept of fair and equal employment opportunity.

Milwaukee Transport Services, Inc. is committed to hiring and developing the best people we can employ, basing our judgment solely on their job-related qualifications. We are committed to assuring that all recruiting, hiring, training, promotions, transfers, layoffs, recall from layoffs, compensation, benefits, company-sponsored educational, social and recreational programs, and other employment related programs and personnel actions be free from discrimination. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodation to applicants and employees when needed to ensure equal opportunity. If an applicant or employee thinks that they have been discriminated against, they have the right to file a complaint. Retaliation is strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated.

Milwaukee Transport Services, Inc. is committed to equal employment opportunity and a diverse workforce through full utilization of available qualified human resources at all levels and in all parts of the organization. To implement our commitment to overcoming the effects of past discrimination on minorities and women, we have in place an Equal Employment Opportunity Program which includes utilization goals and achievement timetables with respect to employment of available qualified minorities and women within our organization. We believe that successful achievement of equal employment opportunity utilization goals will provide benefits to the organization through fuller utilization and development of previously underutilized human resources. The Equal Employment Opportunity Program is available for inspection upon request.

As President & Managing Director, overall responsibility for the Equal Employment Opportunity Program rests with me.  Sandy Kellner, Chief Administrative Officer, serves as the Equal Employment Opportunity Officer for Milwaukee Transport Services, Inc., has direct oversight authority for assuring compliance with this Policy, and reports directly to the President & Managing Director for all matters regarding equal employment opportunity program. All employees are responsible for supporting the concept of equal opportunity and assisting our company in meeting its objectives. Furthermore, management staff performance in fulfilling assigned tasks that ensure and achieve compliance will be evaluated the same as their performance in meeting other company goals.

Applicants and employees who have a concern about employment discrimination or questions regarding the Equal Employment Opportunity Program may contact the Chief Administrative Officer at (414)-937-3205 or EEO.Officer@mcts.org.
