If an employment relationship is created, I understand that unless I am offered a specific written contract of employment signed on behalf of the organization by its President, the employment relationship will be “at-will.” In other words, the relationship will be entirely voluntary in nature, and either I, or my employer, will be able to terminate the employment relationship at any time and without cause. With appropriate notice, I will have the full and complete discretion to end the employment relationship when I choose and for reasons of my choice. Similarly, my employer will have the right. Moreover, no agent, representative, or employee of Breakthrough Developmental Services, LLC, except in a specific written contract of employment signed on behalf of the organization by its President, has the power to alter or vary the voluntary nature of the employment relationship.



Under Maryland law, an employer may not require or demand, as a condition of employment, prospective employment, or continued employment, that an individual submit to or take a lie detector or similar test. An employer who violates this law is guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a fine not exceeding $100.
