Code of Conduct

We are dedicated to providing an ethical, safe, peaceful and enjoyable working environment for
everyone; therefore, we have adopted the following codes of conduct.

Keep it clean

Keeping the Hub tidy is a requirement in maintaining a quality workspace. Work areas, as well as the
kitchen area, are expected to be kept clean and presentable, this means cleaning up after yourself.
Food stored in the fridge should be monitored, with out of date food disposed of.

Use your inside voice

Proper etiquette in regard to noise level is expected. Members must be mindful not to disturb the
noise environment, or any specific member of the environment. This is a co-working space. We
expect our members to make efforts to recognise the needs of others, and a balance should always
be sought to recognise the needs of an individual, while not hindering the needs of others.

Be nice people

Do to others as you would have them do to you. We will not tolerate harassment, which includes,
but is not limited to, reasonably offensive verbal comments related to gender, gender identity and
expression of sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity or
religion; sexual images in public spaces; deliberate intimidation; stalking; following; harassing
photography or recording; sustained disruption of talks or other events; inappropriate physical
contact; and unwelcome sexual attention. Impact trumps intention. Co-workers are encouraged to
speak up, even if only witnessing harassment. Co-workers asked to stop any harassing behaviour
are expected to comply immediately.

Communication is key

All users of the Hub will be aware of this code and you should feel confident in raising any concern
directly if they arise. However, if you would like to report any behaviour that is not in line with the
Code of Conduct, please email info@stornowaybusinesshub.co.uk and we will deal with your
concern. This can be done anonymously if required.
