I understand that I must make any request to the Chief Operating Officer as soon as possible after the date I know or reasonably should know about the accommodation. If hired, I agree to report any claim of unlawful harassment or discrimination to a member of management as designated in ROI's anti-discrimination and anti-harassment policies within three (3) days of the occurrence and understand that this is an express pre-requisite condition to the filing of any action or lawsuit alleging such a wrongful act. I understand and agree that in signing this job application, I am agreeing to waive any and all statutes of limitation applying to the employment relationship or my application for employment, and instead agree to the shorter of a) a 180-day statute of limitations running from the date of the act complained of, or b) the time prescribed by applicable statute. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such a statute of limitations of 180 days is invalid as to some or all claims, I agree to the shorter of a) a 301-day statute of limitations from the date of the act complained of, or b) the time period prescribed by applicable statute as to only those such claim(s). This means that I will only have a limited time to bring any type of legal action against ROI or its officers or employees. I waive any limitation to the contrary.

If hired, I agree to comply with the applicable rules and regulations of Residential Opportunities, Incorporated. Every employee has the status of "employee-at-will," meaning that no one has a contractual right, expressed or implied, to remain in ROI's employ.
