Policy 305: Dress Code 

Employees are expected to have a neat, clean and professional appearance while at work and participating in work related activities.

Here are the key points:

  • Business casual remains our standard for office employees.
  • Alaska Native attire is always welcome.
  • Casual clothing (jeans, T‑shirts, tennis shoes, leggings, flip‑flops, Crocs, etc.) is not permitted unless required for that day’s assigned work.
  • Dresses and skirts must be at least knee‑length.
  • Clothing that is torn, dirty, frayed, overly revealing, or shows undergarments is not allowed. Employees may be sent home to change if needed.
  • “Jeans Friday” allows jeans paired with business‑casual tops and dress shoes—no rips, tears, excessive tightness, or bagginess. Jeans Friday is suspended during Board meetings or customer visits.
  • Employees may be required to wear their security badge while working; lost or broken badges must be reported immediately.

Please review the full policy for complete details. If you have questions, connect with your supervisor or HR — we’re here to help!

Hartford Voluntary Benefits Claims

If you’re enrolled in Critical Illness, Accident, or Hospital Indemnity coverage, don’t forget to submit a claim if you’ve experienced a qualifying event. 

Some examples may include: 

● An accidental injury 

● A covered critical illness diagnosis 

● A hospital admission or stay 

● Certain covered treatments, procedures, or follow-up care 

Keep in mind that these benefits are separate from your medical insurance, so claims are not filed automatically. Even if your medical insurance paid for your care, you may still be eligible for a benefit payment from Hartford. 

If you think you may qualify, please submit your claim directly with Hartford and provide any required documentation. Hartford will review each claim based on your policy coverage. You may file claims at http://www.thehartford.com/benefits/myclaims or at 866-547-4205

If you are unsure if you have enrolled in these plans, you may reach to your benefits team at hrbenefits@doyon.com

What you need to do:

  1. To keep you informed, we strongly encourage all users to provide their best contact number for the alert system.

Keeper Password Manager

Doyon has partnered with Keeper Password Manager to keep all online passwords secure in their online vault. They monitor your account to make sure that they are secure, and use MFA authentication to keep your vault safe and sound. Breach Watch Keeper monitors the dark web for breached account credentials that match any that you have in your vault.

Keeper is a user-friendly phone app that allows you to use one click to enter the username/password for any of your online accounts. They also help you create a new, strong password across all accounts when your password expires.

Through the Doyon Keeper account, you also receive a free family license, which allows you to crate a non-work account, completely separate, for you and 4 additional family members. The account is “zero trust” which means that only the account holder is able to view the passwords.

If  you have any questions or would like assistance, contact IT Support at extension 2005, 907-459-2005, or itsupport@doyon.com.
