Subject: Phased Separation Program

Good morning associates,

Phoenix Engineering offers employees who are considering separating from
Phoenix the opportunity to scale back their percentage effort to 50% for a
designated period. This is the Phased Separation Program, which is a rolling
program with no deadlines for application submissions.
Typically given a three year period, employees will retain regular employee
status, eligibility for raises, and fringe benefits. The Phased Separation
Program is designed to create a more gradual transition for both yourself and
Phoenix. The program offers opportunities such as working only half-time
each year or full-time for six months of the year. This time period allows an
employee to remain an active member of the Phoenix community, while
Phoenix can recruit and train a new associate.
This year, Phoenix hired 16 new college graduates and 24 college interns.
Many at Phoenix have benefited from the aid these new members provide to
our services. Through programs such as the Phased Separation Program, the
funding for these positions was made available.
Human Resources has prepared documents comparing benefit packages of
the Phased Separation Program to similar opportunities. To view the policy
guidelines and application, please visit www.phoenix.com/HR/PSP.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns
regarding the program.
Sincerely,
Jordan Williams, President
