Many situations arise that we may not have written rules for. The Rules and Policies set forth at Fat Cat Fab Lab are at the sole discretion of the Board. The Board may act to enforce rules, make judgement calls, or whatever else is needed to maintain a safe, functional space, and further the collective efforts of the lab members at large. |

In cases when these Rules and Policies are not followed by a Member, we have the following enforcement and consequences procedure in place. |
|||
⚫ | |||
# All strikes remain in place for a period of one year since issue. |
|||
# Depending on severity, a first offense may incur either a warning (verbal or written) or an official strike. |
|||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
# Strikes can be issued from repeating the same offense or any other violation of the Rules and Policies. |
