All members of the SLAC community commit to observe a common set of rules and expectations. There are general policies associated with being employed at Stanford, which you can find on Stanford’s Administrative Guide. This comprehensive document describes in detail Institute policies on issues like equal opportunity employment, official holidays, drug and alcohol use, trial period, harassment, and much more. In addition, SLAC has an additional set of policies that can be accessed here. The SLAC Policy Repository houses policy applicable lab-wide.
