The foundation of every working relationship at Kata Nori Hand Roll Bar.

At-Will Employment
All employment at Kata Nori is on an at-will basis. Either the employee or the company may terminate the relationship at any time, with or without cause or notice. No oral statement can alter this; only a written agreement signed by an owner can.
Introductory Period (First 60 Days)
The first 60 days serve as an introductory period to assess performance and fit. Standards are held to a higher level: one written warning is considered final, and two written warnings will result in termination.
Equal Employment Opportunity
Kata Nori provides equal opportunity without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, ancestry, disability, genetic information, marital status, or any other class protected by law. Reasonable accommodations are made for disability and religious observance — submit requests in writing to your manager as far in advance as possible.
Confidentiality & NDA
Employees may access confidential information including business strategy, recipes, financials, suppliers, customers, and personnel data. This duty applies on and off premises, during and after employment. All employees must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement as a condition of employment.
Immigration Compliance (I-9)
Every new hire must complete the Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 on the date of hire and present supporting documentation within three business days.
