FLEXIBLE WORK ARRANGEMENTS POLICY
For salaried positions paid on the bi-weekly basis


1.0 Policy Statement
PepsiCo Canada promises to foster a workplace culture which recognizes the value of work and
personal goals. This is accomplished by acknowledging individuals needs and supporting
personal objective setting, encouraging individual ownership of work and life goals and making
tools and processes readily available to enable employee flexibility both professionally and
personally.
It is PepsiCo Canadas desire to meet its employees needs and desires in this area. This is
balanced with PepsiCo Canadas primary business needs, objectives, and efficiencies of
operation that must take precedence if necessary.
All flexible work arrangements must be approved by the department manager, function head
and Human Resources.

2.0 Purpose
Flexible Work Arrangements (FWA) give employees the opportunity to work with their
supervisor in developing a regular standard work schedule that best fits both the employees
and the Company needs. Employees should be aware that FWA are not an entitlement and
some arrangements may not be appropriate for certain positions. This means that there may
sometimes be a business reason for not granting an employee request for a FWA. Function
and department management will provide the maximum levels of flexibility possible within their
work groups without sacrificing the attainment of their goals and objectives, including the
servicing of internal and external customers.
Employees and supervisors should be aware that certain arrangements may affect benefits as
well as compensation. When determining whether a FWA is feasible both the employee and the
supervisor must review how benefits and compensation will be affected.

3.0 Scope:
FWA can be considered for all permanent/active exempt and non-exempt salaried
employees, on pay for performance and paid on a bi-weekly basis. The FWA does not apply to
permanent inactive employees, for this group of employees please refer to the applicable leave
of absence.
FWA are not suitable for all positions, as the particular business requirements of the
position must be taken into consideration. For example: shift work positions and front line
resources may be excluded from participating in FWA.
This policy pertains to permanent FWA (greater than 30 days). Temporary FWA (less than 30
days) can be handled via discussion between the employee and manager, but should be
documented (i.e.: e-mail, memo) once an agreement has been reached.

FLEXIBLE WORK ARRANGEMENTS POLICY
For salaried positions paid on the bi-weekly basis


4.0 Types of Flexible Work Arrangements
There are two (2) basic options for FWA which are available to employees.

4.1 Flextime
Flextime allows employees to work a standard hour work week, with assigned core hours and
flexible start and finish times, within limits established by management.
Guidelines
All employees will be required to be present during the Core Hours of:
9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. from Monday to Thursday
9:30 a.m to 12:00 p.m. Fridays
Field Sites (i.e. Manufacturing Plants, Distribution Centres, Area Offices) may set different core
hours as per business needs.
Alternative schedules can be agreed to at the managers discretion. Most flex arrangements
should be a set regular schedule. Should an employee need to make adjustments temporarily
i.e. 30 days or less- a request may be made and will be considered (e.i.: an employee with a
current schedule of 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. can flex their start time to 7:00 a.m. and finish time to
3:30 p.m. for a week to accommodate a temporary childcare issue).
From time to time employees in flextime arrangements may be required to adjust their schedule
to accommodate the needs of the business. The Company reserves the right to require a return
to traditional work hours. Flextime arrangements do not impact the total number of hours
worked by an employee, and should have no impact on compensation or benefits eligibility.

4.2 Flexplace
Flexplace occurs when an employee works off-site, either at home or in satellite offices, for part
of the week. Flexplace is particularly useful when the nature of the work requires the
employees presence at the office for only brief periods, when the employee regularly commutes
between two or more work areas, or in situations involving special customer contact
requirements.
Guidelines
This may include one or two days off-site.

4.3 Other
Other FWA outside of these categories should be handled as an exception through HR and may
require approval from function head and VP HR.

5.0 Roles and Responsibilities
Both managers and employees have important roles to play in the establishment of a FWA.

5.1 Role of Manager
When evaluating the request for FWA, managers should take into account the needs of the
team, the type of work being performed, individual performance and the needs of internal and
external customers. Managers are responsible for confirming the arrangement in writing to the
employee (via copy of work arrangement agreement).
Manager responsibilities include:
Provide support and guidance to employees who wish to propose a FWA;
Help employees decide what kind of FWA would best suit their needs, and those of their
customers or client groups;
Discuss with the employee any way in which the position will change, (managers
expectations, the new work schedule, implication for co-workers and customers, and the
need for flexibility);
Discuss the impact on benefits and compensation (if applicable)
Decide if a trial period is necessary;
Partner with Human Resources and Function Head to evaluate and approve or decline FWA
proposals;
In determining whether or not to approve, manager should consider:
a. Their departments work requirements
b. Fully consider each criteria outlined on the FWA discussion work sheet
Administer FWA(s) within their work groups;
Monitor, assess and support the arrangements to ensure they continue to meet the needs of
customers, employees and PepsiCo Canada.
Where possible, most meetings should be scheduled during Core Hours. When this is not
possible and meetings either begin or are expected to extend beyond Core Hours, meeting
participants will be expected to adjust their personal schedules accordingly in order to attend
the meeting. In these cases, meeting participants should receive as much advance notice
as possible; and
Ensure the Employment Standard Act or code requirements relating are adhered to.

5.2 Role of Employee
Employees interested in a long-term (greater than 30 days) adjustment to their work schedule
should discuss with their manager. The FWA Assessment Worksheet attached to this policy
may be used to guide this discussion

5.3 Role of Human Resources (HR)
HR will partner with manager to review and approve or decline all FWA requests. HR will also
collect all approved and declined FWA Agreement forms for employee file.
Human Resources responsibilities include:
Consult with employee and/or manager on FWA options;
Provide information on existing arrangements that could be used to help design a FWA;
Review and approve FWA;
Process necessary payroll paperwork reflecting the change (if applicable).

6.0 Rules

Agreement form to the manager and human resources;

individual needs;

a specific Wednesday, the employee will be ask to flex their days that week);

appropriate transition time;

employee mid year and annual performance review);
