expect the first deposit.
Important Info
2) TD has a Holiday Leave Program (aka Furlough) in place for all contractors. Your TD manager can ask you to take additional unpaid time off around holidays, normally 1
or 2 days on either side of a long weekend but it can sometimes be longer around the Christmas to New Years period as well as on non-statutory holidays such as
Remembrance Day. We will provide you with a list of possible dates for this program.
3) It is very important that you do not send ANYTHING from your TD email to your personal email address at any time. Also do not download any software to your TD
computer without TD manager permission. TD's I.T. security team monitors all activity so we strongly suggest that you read and save the TD code of conduct document
which will be included with the contract to ensure you are clear on TD's rules for contractors.

not take any TD equipment with you on vacation.
