Workplace Safety and Health

Teradata strives to provide each associate and business partner with a safe and healthy work environment. We conduct no activity without taking all proper health, safety, and environmental protection precautions.

Teradata is also committed to a drug-free workplace. That means all of us must be free from the influence of drugs and alcohol while conducting business. The use, possession, distribution, or sale of illegal drugs, or the improper use or abuse of prescription or other lawful drugs, on company premises or while on company business is strictly prohibited. Alcohol may be consumed in moderation at certain management-approved, company-sponsored events, but only consistent with the guidelines of the event, and only if the consuming associate accepts full responsibility and accountability for their consumption and conduct and does not operate a motor vehicle while legally impaired.

Violations of our drug and alcohol abuse policy in the workplace will not be tolerated. Teradata has associate support programs in place to assist associates who are dealing with drug or alcohol abuse or addictions. Affected associates are encouraged to use these programs. Information about these services is available through the Teradata Employee Assistance Program.

Teradata associates are expected to treat each other with respect and courtesy. Teradata will not tolerate acts or threats of violence. If you witness actual or threatened violence in the workplace, you should report it immediately to your manager, facilities manager, or Human Resources representative.

Use of Company Assets

Teradata assets—its information, facilities, equipment, networks, materials, property, technology, and reputation—have been acquired through the hard work, achievement, and dedication of our entire team. We all have an interest in the continued success of Teradata, and we all are accountable for that success. We must protect our assets and associated data and personal information from theft, damage, loss, and misuse, and ensure they are used only for Teradata and Teradata-approved purposes.

Teradata recognizes our associates may occasionally make limited personal use of certain Teradata assets. However, the routine or extensive use of Teradata time, assets, or resources for personal purposes is not permitted. Anything more than minimal use of Teradata resources for personal or non-Teradata approved community or charitable purposes must receive prior approval from your manager.

If you are in doubt about whether the amount, type, or content of personal use of Teradata assets is proper, please discuss it with your manager, obtain approval in advance, and refrain from using Teradata assets for such purposes until after you have received permission to do so.

The Teradata Code applies to both business use and permitted personal use of Teradata assets. This means you should not use Teradata assets at any time for anything that violates the Code or our policies, such as for accessing, viewing, storing, or sending pornography; engaging in acts of discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or threats of violence; or illegal gambling, prostitution, or any illegal activities. Violations will lead to discipline, up to and including termination of employment.
