Hunter Marine supports the United States Coast Guard in mandating zero tolerance of illegal drugs and alcohol. We are committed to everyone's welfare and feel this program is necessary to assure the safety and welfare of all our employees.

I certify that all the information that I have provided is true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I understand that false statements on this application are sufficient cause for denial of employment or, if employed, reason enough for dismissal without regard to the length of my employment.

If hired, I understand and agree that my employment is for no definite period of time and may be terminated at any time without prior notice. My employment with Hunter Marine shall be "at will" and nothing herein shall institute any contract of employment between the employer and applicant.

I am aware that I will be given a comprehensive physical exam which includes a drug and alcohol screen administered by a company physician prior to my employment and that I will be subject to drug and alcohol testing as required by Company policy and/or U.S. Coast Guard regulations.
