Fines are monetary, and are typically used to disincentivize skipping out on required labor. The chart included outlines the basics of our fining policy for missing labor, which can also be found in the Constitution. Each volunteer who works a short-staffed shift in which another member is being fined for missing will receive compensation (or 'credit') of $15 per hour.
Fines are emailed to members before they are posted on RentManager. You can be put on referral for the fine even though you haven't had to pay it yet. Be sure to watch your email for updates about fines. If you haven't been fined, you'll receive a monthly confirmation saying that you have no balance with the house. If you aren't receiving emails at least once a month then you should get in contact with the Treasurer.
Fines may also be used to disincentivize other ways of being uncooperative. For example, in 2021 we implemented a fine for failing to report the results of a mandatory COVID test.
Examples
Per the chart, house chores are fined on a $15/hr basis, multiplied by the infraction number.
| Missed Shift | Fine | Disciplinary Action |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | $45 | Warning |
| 2 | $90 | Second warning |
| 3 | $130 | Automatic referral |
| 4 | $175 | Expulsion hearing |
Per the chart, suite chores are also fined on a $15/hr basis, multiplied by the infraction number.
| Missed Shift | Fine | Disciplinary Action |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | $15 | Warning |
| 2 | $30 | Second warning |
| 3 | $45 | Automatic referral |
| 4 | $60 | Expulsion hearing |
Missing Work Holiday incurs a flat $60, in keeping with the $15/hr basis.
Note: You can be put on referral for missing a combination of suite and house chores. For example, someone who missed 2 kitchen shifts and a suite chore will still be on referral even though they only missed 2 kitchen shifts.
