AppFolio is committed to providing employees with a healthy, safe and productive work environment. We are each responsible for using good judgment, including reporting hazardous or unsafe conditions that can result in work-related injuries, illness or risk to the Company. We don’t tolerate violent behavior or bringing weapons on Company property or to Company events. Violations of this policy will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.
