  2. Upon committing to an assignment, the following conditions must be adhered to for the continued employment:

A. If an assignment cannot be completed, a 48-hour working notice must be given to your ParkWest Staffing Representative in person or over the phone. This will allow us adequate time to line up a replacement for you.
