Facts of Reliant Employment

• Employment with Reliant is "at will." The Missionary Field Manual is not a contract of employment and is not intended to create contractual obligations of any kind. Employment will be on an "at will" basis unless there is a specific, written employment contract that provides otherwise. Either Reliant or the employee may terminate employment at any time, with or without notice or cause, and for any or no reason. In order to retain necessary flexibility in the administration of policies and procedures, Reliant reserves the right to change, revise or eliminate any of the policies and/or benefits described in this handbook at its sole discretion and at any time.

• Reliant is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

• A Reliant missionary is employed by Reliant and not the partner organization. Employees will receive a W-2 tax form and not a 1099, which goes to independent contractors.
• Reliant missionary roles are ministerial in nature.

• Reliant missionaries accept the privilege and responsibility to trust God for the funding for their ministries for their entire missionary career. Gathering the funds for your ministry role is your first job. Reliant calls this process Ministry Team Development.
