WARREN USERY

REPUBLIC AVIATION CORPORATION INDIANA DIVISION

WHEREAS, Republic Aviation Corporation, in its daily operations represents the American principle that each and every one of its employees is entitled to consideration as an individual and to recognition for the contribution of each to the joint effort of all, and,

WHEREAS, Republic Aviation Corporation, through its policies stands for fair and impartial treatment of all employees, and,

WHEREAS, the Supervisory Staff of Republic Aviation Corporation has followed and carried out the principles of the Republic Supervisory Code in our daily relationships with our fellow employees, therefore,

BE IT RESOLVED that these principles, founded upon the democratic ideals of fair play, good will, mutual understanding, and cooperation among all, shall continue to guide us as we strive to do our part in the performance of our duty to our country, our company, our fellow employees and above all, to those who are fighting for us against oppression, tyranny, and dictatorship:

The Republic Supervisory Code

T H E LINE OF LEADERSHIP

'o promote cooperation, good will and mtual understanding, in all my relations wib. those under me who look to me for direction and instruction, I pledge myself to:

1. Take a personal interest in them by making a friendly contact at least once a day.

2. Explain all Company programs and policies to them.

3. Get and keep their confidence so that they will always feel free to come to me with any problem or misunderstanding.

4. Play no favorites.

5. Get all the facts before I act and not jump at conclusions.

6. Give full credit to others when it is deserved.

7. Never discipline a person in front of others.

8. Sell quality of workmanship and safety every day.

9. Never promise things I can't de­liver.

10. Treat the other fellow the way I would like to be treated in his place.

To do these things because I still re­member when I was once where they are now and because I want to help them do their job well. Only through them can I do my job well.

THE LINE OF ORGANIZATION

To promote cooperation, mutual under­standing, increased production and qual­ity, in all my relations with those above me who look to me for RESULTS, I pledge myself to:

1. Understand and carry out all com­pany policies and procedures.

2. Know where the work for which I am responsible stands at all times.

3. Be constantly alert to see that quality standards are maintained and methods improved.

4. Go out of my way to help others. 5. See that the person above me in

the line of supervision is regularly informed as to what goes on. Back check with him if I am in doubt.

6. Keep an open mind on new ideas, methods, people and problems.

7. Stand on my own feet and not pass the buck.

8. Follow up my instructions regu­larly to see they are being carried out.

9. Develop and build those under me so that I shall always have an understudy.

10. Meet each day's problems cheer­fully, with patience, persistence, reasonableness and understanding.

To do these things because only in this way can I merit the confidence and re­spect of those who have entrusted me with my responsibilities.
