Edinburgh Hacklab Policies

View these documents at https://policies.ehlab.uk/

Structure:

  • Health and Safety: policies that follow from the company's legal responsibilies for health and safety.
  • Organisation: policies that we have voluntarily created as a group.
  • Activities: additional rules or guidance for specific activities.

Style guide:

  • This document is intended to be read by ordinary users of the Hacklab.
  • Use plain English.
  • Keep it simple.
  • Policies should be proportional and realistic, or they will be ignored.
  • Don't spend time describing legal frameworks. If extra information is relevant to the directors, document it elsewhere and link to it in footnotes.

Change policy:

  • There is no formal approval policy at this time.
  • Any documentation is better than no documentation.
  • At some point, the directors may freeze an approved version and we will start using pull requests.
