status. Pfizer also complies with all applicable national, state and local laws governing
nondiscrimination in employment as well as employment eligibility verification
requirements of the Immigration and Nationality Act. All applicants must have
authorization to work for Pfizer in the U.S. In certain circumstances it may be
advantageous to Pfizer to support the application(s) for temporary visa classification
and/or sponsor applications for permanent residence so that a foreign national colleague
can accept or remain in a work assignment in the U. S. For certain classes of temporary
visas, the resulting work authorization may be specific to Pfizer and the specific job and/or
work site. Pfizer may at its business discretion decide to or refrain from obtaining,
maintaining and/or extending the temporary visa status and/or sponsoring a colleague for
permanent residency and /or employment eligibility, considering factors such as
availability of qualified U.S. workers and the colleague's long-term prospects for securing
lawful permanent residence, among other reasons. Employment applicants requiring
immigration sponsorship must disclose, when initial application for employment is made,
whether or not they are legally authorized to work for Pfizer in the U.S. and, if so, whether
that authorization permits them to work in the job they seek. In no case should Pfizer's
support of a colleague's temporary visa application or sponsorship of a colleague for
permanent residence be construed to guarantee success of that application or amend or
otherwise invalidate the "at-will" employment relationship between the colleague and
Pfizer.
