I wish to be a member of Karma Cooperative, gaining the democratic rights of Karma Members and the right to shop at Karma.
I hereby agree to meet the obligations of members as set out in Karma's by-laws, policies and other regulations, adopted by the members or the Board of Directors, as amended in accordance with the by-laws. I agree that all members of the Karma household are jointly and severally responsible for any debts to Karma incurred by any member of the household, including work hours (or equivalent fees instead of working) owed.
I will be subscribed to The Chronicle, Karma's primary channel of communication with its member base. I can unsubscribe at any time.
I will be provided a copy of the Member Handbook upon request at the store.
Annual General Meetings are an important means of participating in the democratic governance of Karma Co-op. Notices for the same will be sent out annually by email.
I understand that future changes to Karma's membership policies will be posted in the store or publicized by other means, but I cannot expect personal notification of these changes. Specifically, I understand that there may be changes made to the fee in lieu of work and the percentage surcharge.
I further agree to contribute to maintaining Karma as a safe and welcoming space by treating all participants with respect. I understand that if my behaviour is discriminatory or harassing, that service may be denied to me and/or my membership may be revoked.
