READ THESE!
DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THIS. Seriously.
• I verify that I HAVE PREVIOUSLY ATTENDED Business Mastery and meet the requirements at https://www.tonyrobbins.com/community/apply-to-crew/Â
• I promise to arrive ON TIME at 9:00AM on August 15, 2022, or will write in the "anything else" information field (above) about why I cannot.
• If approved, I am committed to participate in this program and have or will adjust my schedule to be available for the duration of the event. By checking the above box, I am representing that I am 100% sure I CAN AND WILL BE THERE! I recognize that the participants, Tony, the Crew, and potentially any future crew applications I submit depend on this. I understand that once my status shows as "approved," I am expected to attend UPW as a Crew Member.
• If approved, I guarantee I will cancel my registration in advance of the event if I cannot make it. Life happens. We completely understand. Please remember, we rely on every member of our crew to show up and we usually have a waiting list. If I cannot attend, I will log back on as soon as I know and cancel using this system. I understand that I cannot substitute others in my spot as all crew need to be screened. Additionally, I understand that my Personal Account Representative cannot cancel this request; rather I must and will use this same system or write [email protected].
• I hereby acknowledge that I am not forgoing any employment or other income opportunities in order to participate as a voluntary Crew Member in an ongoing educational program at UPW. I further acknowledge and agree that I am not an employee, independent contractor, or agent of Robbins Research International, Inc. and/or its respective affiliates and will not make any statement to the contrary.
• I understand and agree that I am not entitled to and will not receive any direct monetary compensation in connection with my Crew Member participation at UPW, including, without limitation, salary, wages, and/or benefits. I am applying to be a Crew Member solely for my personal satisfaction, benefit, and development and because I believe participating in this way at UPW is a powerful and deeply enriching educational experience, in addition to an opportunity to gain free entry to the event and to enjoy special access at the event, develop my skills continue my own education, and network with other Crew Members and participants. Therefore, I do not expect to receive any compensation and expressly waive any claim for compensation, including minimum wage, overtime and/or employment benefits, in connection with my Crew Member services at UPW. I further understand that as a Crew Member, I will be provided extensive access to UPW and that I will be able to observe the event when not otherwise tasked with a specific role. I acknowledge my receipt of this access and the ability to observe UPW is a significant benefit that I would otherwise need to purchase a ticket for.
• I understand and acknowledge that by applying for a Crew Member position and in exchange for the mutual covenants included in the attached Arbitration Agreement and in consideration of my application, I agree to be bound by the attached Arbitration Agreement. I agree that all covered claims (as described in the Arbitration Agreement), regardless of when those disputes or claims arose (including before or after the date of the Agreement) will be resolved under the Arbitration Agreement rather than in court. This includes legal and statutory claims.
Crew Member Arbitration Agreement
Robbins Research International, Inc. (the "Company") and I mutually agree that any dispute or controversy relating in any way to, arising out of, or pertaining to my application for or service as a Crew Member with the Company (including the period between submitting my application and the start date of the event I am applying for, during the event, and thereafter), including its affiliates and its and their owners, employees and executives, except those disputes/controversies specifically excluded below, shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration governed by and interpreted in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"). Except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, I further agree that any such dispute or controversy will be resolved in individual arbitration under the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules ("Rules") of JAMS, Inc. ("JAMS") on a non-collective, non-class and non-representative action basis. As such, I agree that I will not bring or participate in any class, collective, or representative action against the Company in any forum. Therefore, both the Company and I are giving up the right to a jury trial, in any forum, of covered claims.
In resolving any such dispute or controversy, the arbitrator shall strictly follow and enforce the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, and the resulting decision and award shall be final and binding upon the parties and judgment thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. To the extent any of the terms, conditions or requirements of this Arbitration Agreement conflict with the Rules of JAMS, the terms, conditions or requirements of this Arbitration Agreement shall govern. In any action brought under this Arbitration Agreement, the Company shall bear the cost of the arbitration forum fees.
For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, excluded claims include: (i) applications by either party for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in aid of arbitration or for the maintenance of the status quo pending arbitration; (ii) claims for workers' compensation benefits, but not retaliation claims arising out of or relating to claims for workers' compensation benefits, although I continue to acknowledge that I am not engaged as an employee; (iii) claims for unemployment compensation benefits, although I continue to acknowledge that I am not engaged as an employee; (iv) claims under the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, within the exclusive jurisdiction of the National Labor Relations Board; and (v) any claim that is expressly precluded from arbitration by a federal statute or federal regulation. Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall prohibit you from filing a charge or complaint or participating in an investigation resulting from the filing of a charge or complaint with a federal, state, or local administrative agency.
Any disputes concerning the validity or enforceability of the class, collective, and representative action waivers contained in this Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by and determined under and in accordance with the FAA, and shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction, not by an arbitrator. To the extent any covered claims are not eligible for arbitration or otherwise are excluded from or not subject to arbitration, for any reason, the class, collective and representative action waivers set forth in this Arbitration Agreement remain valid and enforceable as to those claims pursued in court.
The provisions of this Arbitration Agreement shall be severable and, if any provisions hereof shall be determined to be legally unenforceable or void, such unenforceable or void provision shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof and may be severed from the remaining provisions as appropriate, to the extent permitted by law. In the event the class, collective and representative action waiver set forth above are determined to be invalid, unenforceable or void with respect to any covered claim, that claim and only that claim shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration (and such court shall be the exclusive forum for all such claims), and the waivers set forth in this Arbitration Agreement shall remain effective and enforceable with respect to all other covered claims. In other words, the parties agree that in no event shall there be a class, collective or representative action involving them in arbitration.
