Tucson J Hiring Forms: Camp

Emergency Contact

The Tucson Jewish Community Center requires all employees to use direct deposit, a process that automatically deposits your paycheck to your bank account on the morning of payday. You can also have your direct deposit split between 2 or more accounts. It will save all of us time and money.

As a bonus, most banks and credit unions will give you free checking if you use direct deposit.

Please complete the form below. Your direct deposit will start immediately. If you do not have an account your money will be deposited to a pre paid debit card, which you can pick up in the accounting office. Direct deposit pay stubs will be emailed the day before payday. Please include your email address. If you do not have email, please write N/A and a paper stub will be printed for you.

I hereby authorize The Tucson Jewish Community Center to initiate credit entries and, if necessary, debit entries and adjustments for any credit entries in error, to my checking or savings account (indicated above) and to credit and/or debit the same to such account. This authority is to remain in full force and effect until you have received written notification from me of its termination.

Preamble: Members of the Board of Directors and/or employees of the Tucson Jewish Community Center (J) are required to discharge their fiduciary duties in good faith, in the best interest of the J and without creating an appearance of impropriety. Furthermore, Board members and employees shall not use the J assets for any personal advantage. Examples of such assets include not only equipment, tools and supplies, but also donor information and other confidential information. Accordingly, we hereby set forth policy governing self-interested Business Transaction, as hereinafter defined, to ensure that Board Members and employees do not unduly benefit nor improperly influence the award of contracts or otherwise profit from such Transactions with the Center.

Upon election, each Board Member shall evidence that he/she is in compliance with this policy. Each employee shall do the same upon hire. Each Board Member and/or employee must disclose promptly any material change in his/her conditions.

The deliberate failure to adhere to this policy shall be considered grounds for removal with cause from employment or from the Board of Directors of the Tucson Jewish Community Center.

(a) For the purposes of this policy, the term ”Business Transaction” shall be defined as any transaction with the J involving the sale, purchase, rental, disposition, licensing, or exchange of any goods, services, or property, and the performance of or litigation with respect to any of the foregoing.

I acknowledge that I have received and read the Tucson Jewish Community Center‘s Conflict of Interest Policy, and I will fully comply with all of the items of that policy.

I understand that the Tucson Jewish Community Center will utilize the services of a consumer reporting agency as part of the procedure for processing my application for employment.

I understand that the consumer reporting agency will conduct an investigation which may include obtaining information utilizing motor vehicle records and criminal justice records for criminal convictions, civil records for past judgments, decisions or settlements related to my integrity and character.

I understand that before I am denied employment based on information obtained in the report, I will be provided a copy of the report and a description in writing of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

I hereby consent to this investigation and authorize the Tucson Jewish Community Center now, or while I am employed by Tucson Jewish Community Center to procure a report on my background from a consumer reporting agency.
