Exercise: reading time

Our Code of Conduct has been updated!

​

Please take this time to read it carefully and pay attention to:

​

• What it is considered to be a good community member

​

• Unwanted and unacceptable behaviour

​

• The reporting process

​

​

Can you give examples of desirable behaviour?

​

What about unwanted behaviour?

8

Let's go back to our Code of Conduct and take a look at some examples

Examples of serious CoC violation:

​

Sexual harassment

Repeated bullying

Harassment

​

​

We do not tolerate harassment at CodeYourFuture.

​

If it happens to you or you see happening to other people, please report it to a CYF Staff Member in your region.

​

Persistent harassment may lead to police involvement.

​

​

​

The list is not exhaustive.

Unwanted behaviour may lead to warnings, even if the behaviour is not meant to offend or intimidate.

In extreme cases, unwanted behaviour may lead to expulsion from the community.

​

The reporting process

​

​

12

If you see or experience a breach of this code, please discuss it with a CYF staff member.

If someone tells you something of concern, please take a note of what they said. Use their own words, where possible. Remember, you don’t need to use someone's name to report a concern.

If you do not get a response within a week, please email the community safety team at cs@codeyourfuture.io

Recap:

​

What steps should you take if someone violates the CoC?

Professional Boundaries

Professional boundaries is the difference between your personal and professional life.

​

They are put in place to make sure that we are working in a safe and inclusive environment at all times.

​

We are all expected to be professional at all times at CYF.

​

Examples of keeping professional boundaries are:

• Maintaining professional language at all times
• Maintaining personal space and keeping physical contact at a professional level at all times
• Understanding the difference between personal friendships and professional relationships

Why is this important?

​

​

15

CYF is a community and we are all responsible for building a friendly and safe environment to all.

​

We want an environment where everybody is empowered to challenge negative behaviours and report unsafe behaviours.

​

If you have any questions, please ask them :)

How do we know what other people’s boundaries are?

We need your help to keep this community an inclusive, nice, and safe space for all!
