Equal Employment Opportunity Statement
Currax maintains a continuing policy of non-discrimination in employment.
Currax maintains a continuing policy of non-discrimination in employment. The Company is an equal opportunity employer and complies with all applicable laws prohibiting discrimination. It is Currax’s policy to provide equal opportunity and access for all persons, without regard to age, ancestry, color, creed, religion, disability, marital status, medical condition, genetic information, military and veteran status, national origin, political activities or affiliation, race, sex, gender, gender identity and gender expression, and sexual orientation, as well as any other category protected by law.
It is our policy to provide equal opportunity in all phases of the employment process and in compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations. This policy of non-discrimination shall include, but not be limited to, the following employment decisions and practices: hiring, promotions, demotions or transfers, layoffs, recalls, terminations, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, selection for training, including apprenticeship, and recruitment or recruitment advertising.
Currax will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against employees or applicants because they have inquired about, discussed, or disclosed their own pay or the pay of another employee or applicant. However, employees who have access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of their essential job functions cannot disclose the pay of other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to compensation information, unless the disclosure is (a) in response to a formal complaint or charge, (b) in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or (c) consistent with Currax’s legal duty to furnish information.
Employees and applicants of Currax will not be subjected to any form of harassment or discrimination for exercising rights protected by, or because of their participation in an investigation or compliance review related to, the Americans With Disabilities Act, Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, the Veterans Employment Opportunities Act of 1998, or any other federal or state non-discrimination law, rule, or regulation. Such rights include protection against discrimination based on a person’s relationship or association with a protected veteran.
If you believe that you have been discriminated against in any manner as described above, you should notify the VP, Human Resources and/or Assoc. General Counsel. You may also remain anonymous and contact the Currax Compliance and Ethics Hotline at www.currax.ethicspoint.com or 1-800-826-6762 (available 24/7).
Currax will continue to direct management to take such action as may be required to prevent behavior prohibited by this policy. All matters will be investigated, and appropriate corrective action will be taken, up to and including termination of employment. Retaliation against anyone who complains of or witnesses behavior contrary to this policy is also prohibited.
As a federal contractor, Currax maintains affirmative action programs to implement our equal employment opportunity policy for individuals with disabilities and protected veterans. Employees and/or applicants who wish to review the full narrative portion of the Currax annual affirmative action programs for individuals with disabilities or protected veterans may submit a request to [email protected]. Reviews will be conducted during normal business hours.

Warning – Be Aware of Employment / Job Seeker Related Scams
Currax Pharmaceuticals LLC (“Currax”) has become aware that there are certain employment related scams that are being orchestrated which make false use of an actual company’s name (and/or the name or names of some of their associates) in an attempt to defraud job seekers. Pursuant to these scams, the names of actual companies (and/or their associates) are fraudulently invoked by people or entities that are not affiliated with them or authorized to act on their behalf. The people or entities that orchestrate these scams try to appear as the involved company (or a person associated with it), and they then contact unsuspecting job seekers in an attempt to obtain money and/or personal information. In some instances, unsuspecting job seekers have reported receiving unsolicited contacts by phone, email or text from individual(s) purporting to be, or to represent, the involved company (or an associate of it).
Please be advised that Currax does not extend unsolicited employment offers, and it does not make such employment offers without first conducting a formal interview process. Please note also that all of Currax’s postings for open positions with us are located here. Please note further that Currax does not charge any sort of fees, or collect any sort of a security deposit, from prospective employees during the recruitment process.
Additionally, no one from Currax, and no one who is authorized to act on Currax’s behalf, will ever ask for money for any reason as part of our recruitment process; nor will they contact job seekers by e-mail or telephone in order to gather personal information – the necessary information is collected securely as part of the formal application process.
If you experience, or suspect, this sort of behavior in connection with a posting that is being represented as involving a Currax position, you may report that to us via [email protected].
If you feel that you may have been defrauded in some way by this sort of conduct, or that you may have been a victim of identity theft, please contact your local law enforcement authorities for guidance.
