Employment History

Affidavit Applicant’s Statement

I understand and agree that:

1. Although management makes every effort to accommodate individual preferences, business needs may at any time make the following conditions mandatory: overtime, shift work, weekend or evening work.
2. I understand that if I am employed at a division within an “at will” state, such employment is for no definite period of time and that Knife River can change wage, benefits and employment conditions at any time. If employment with this organization is at a division with an “at will” state, the Employee may resign at any time and the Employer may discharge Employee at any time with or without cause. Not all divisions are located in “at will” states.
3. If a job offer is made by the company, I agree to submit to a post-offer, pre-employment physical examination, fit for duty test and drug screening test as a condition of employment. I understand that an offer of employment is conditioned upon the results of said testing being satisfactory to the company.
4. I understand that any misrepresentation, material omission, or false/misleading information supplied on my application or during my interview may result in the cancellation of this application or my immediate termination of employment.
5. My signature authorizes Knife River to make such investigation and inquiries of my personal, employment and other related matters as may be necessary in arriving at an employment decision. I hereby release employers, schools or persons for all liability in responding to inquiries in connection with my application. I authorize said companies, schools or persons named in this employment application to release information regarding my employment, academic records, character and qualifications.

8. I understand that I have the right to review information provided by current/previous employers, have errors in the information corrected by previous employers and for those previous employers to re-send the corrected information to the prospective employer, and have a rebuttal statement attached to the alleged erroneous information, if the previous employer(s) and I cannot agree on the accuracy of the information.
9.  I understand that nothing contained in this employment application or in the granting of an interview creates a contract between Knife River and me for employment or for any other benefit. No promises regarding employment have been made to me and I understand that no such promise or guarantee is binding upon Knife River.If a conditional offer of employment is extended to me by Knife River, I understand I may be asked to authorize a background check, which may include a motor vehicle, criminal, education, employer verification and/or a credit check based on the position for which I am being considered.
