  1. [[Corporate policy]]
  2. Abstract: Corporate Policy is a set of guidelines devised by the Board of Directors instructing any entity within Corporate controlled space, of what not to do. Policy is to be upheld by all, regardless of rank and circumstance.
  3.  
  4. Straying from Corporate policy is to not be taken lightly, and doing so will be handled swiftly, and effectively.
  5.  
  6. The only exception is embassies - they are considered the territory of the government of that race, and their law applies there.
  7.  
  8. Great cases of RP may excuse this. Adminhelp if you wish to intentionally break these. Just remember, you ''will'' get fired for it if you can't cover it up. The threat of a ban still applies.
  9.  
  10. === Interpretation of Corporate Policy===
  11. A good working knowledge of Corporate Policy is important for any person on the station. It can be the difference between a shiny pair of handcuffs and sipping drinks in the bar. More in-depth interpretations of Corporate Policy are required for such positions as the [[Warden]], [[Head of Personnel]], [[Captain]], and the [[Head of Security]].
  12.  
  13. For certain crimes, the accused's intent is important. The difference between 'assault' and 'attempted murder' can be very hard to ascertain. It is important to note though, that 'assault' and 'attempted murder' are mutually exclusive. You cannot be charged with 'assault' and 'attempted murder' from the same crime as the intent of each is different. Likewise, 'assault with a deadly weapon' and 'assaulting an officer' are also crimes that exclude others. Pay careful attention to the requirements of each law and select the one that best fits the crime when deciding sentence.
  14.  
  15. In the case of violent crimes (assault, manslaughter, attempted murder and murder), and theft (petty, pickpocketing, and high value) take only the most severe.
  16.  
  17. A single incident has a single sentence, so if, for instance, the prisoner took 3 items off someone, this is a single count of pickpocketing.
  18.  
  19. Keep in mind that people that cause major mayhem (and potentially any other criminals) have probably committed more than one crime. Trespassing+Theft often apply like this. Add the time for each case together. However, you cannot be charged for assault and murder of the same person, nor trespassing and infiltration. If multiple crimes in the same vein apply, use the highest.
  20.  
  21. If in doubt, adminhelp to ask, and/or consult your superiors.
  22.  
  23. Aiding a criminal makes you an accomplice; you can be charged with the same crime as the person you aided.
  24.  
  25. As an arresting officer, follow [[Guide_to_Security#Standard_Procedure|standard security procedures]], to ensure you don't fall foul of legal proceedings.
  26.  
  27. === Additional ===
  28. The [[Captain]] is not above Corporate Policy, and can be arrested by Security for breaking it. The only time that Space Law can be overridden is when there is an imminent and overwhelming threat to the station.
  29.  
  30. Pardons are only legitimate if they come from a NanoTrasen higher-up (that is, someone who ranks above the Captain). Despite his high ranking, the Captain cannot spit in the face of Corporate Policy, and any attempts to do so are crimes.
  31.  
  32. If you can't find the crime listed in here you can set up a tribunal. See [[Legal Standard Operating Procedure]].
  33.  
  34. Tribunals should be held in place of hearings or trials, see [[Legal Standard Operating Procedure]]. Trials by jury are not legal.
  35.  
  36. Do '''NOT''' demand a tribunal for anything less than 10 minutes. You'll just be laughed at. Even a medium crime will rarely be worth a tribunal.
  37.  
  38. The time you took for bringing the suspect in and the time you spend questioning are NOT to be calculated into this. This is the pure time someone spends in a cell staring at the wall.
  39.  
  40.  
  41. === Minor crimes ===
  42. These crimes carry standard punishments of up to 7 minutes and a maximum punishment of 15 minutes if all crimes commited were minor. They can be set with an officer's discretion. 'Suggested Sentence' values are beside the crimes. 'Additional Penalties' can be decided by authorisation of Captain, Head of Security, or equivalent, and do not require tribunals.

  50. |-
  51. | 101
  52. | '''Trespassing'''
  53. | To be in an area which a person does not have access to.
  54. | Remember that people can either break in, sneak in, or be let in. Always check that the suspect wasn't let in to do a job by someone with access, or were given access on their ID. Trespassing and theft often committed together; both sentences should be applied. Severity is increased if they refuse to leave the area peacefully, more so if they attempt to use important equipment there, so feel free to add other charges if they do.
  55. | 3 minutes.
  56. | Up to 10 minutes. Demotion.
  57. |-
  58. | 102
  59. | '''Petty Theft'''
  60. | To take items from areas one does not have access to, or to take items belonging to others or the station as a whole.
  61. | Keeping items which are in short supply where they belong is what is important here. A doctor who takes all the surgical tools and hides them still commits theft, even though he had access. Items can include anything from toolboxes to metal to insulated gloves. Remember to take the items away from them and return them to where they stole them. Weapons, Plasma Tanks, etc, come under grand theft.
  62. | 3 minutes, returning of stolen item to the owner or department.
  63. | Up to 10 minutes. Demotion.
  64. |-
  65. | 103
  66. | '''Minor Assault'''
  67. | To use, or threaten, physical force against someone, without intent to kill or seriously injure.
  68. | If it causes minor damage and easily treatable damage, it's minor assault. Starting fights with other employees or punching fellow employees counts too, as well as seriously threatening them with it. Excessive force on security's part can also fall under this.
  69. | 4 minutes.
  70. | Up to 10 minutes. Demotion.
  71. |-
  72. | 104
  73. | '''Battery'''
  74. | To have unwanted physical contact with someone, even where the contact is not violent.
  75. | Bumping into someone in a corridor doesn't really count. Touching someone, when they have explicitly told you not to, does. Pushing/Disarming is covered here.
  76. | 2 minutes.
  77. | Up to 8 minutes. Demotion.
  78. |-
  79. | 105
  80. | '''Indecent Exposure or Hooliganism'''
  81. | To be intentionally and publicly unclothed, yelling at people for no reason (don't arrest someone because they are arguing), throwing around stuff where it could hit someone, yelling about how terrible NanoTrasen is, etc.
  82. | Running around the station naked or in underwear, or other such degrading activities. Drunks can be keep to sober up, but only if they are badly harassing other crew members. Regular drunks don't get arrested and if they are only a nuisance you keep them for the regular time. The mutual degradation of chasing a naked man down while he screams rape is only worth it on slow rounds.
  83. | 5 minutes.
  84. | Up to 8 minutes. Demotion.
  85. |-
  86. | 106
  87. | '''Suspicious Conduct'''
  88. | To possess a suspiciously wide skill set, not indicated in employee record, wielding dangerous weapons near other staff, extensive inquiring about critical areas, or stalking other employees.
  89. | Basically, metagamey/powergamey behaviour. It's worth reporting to the Head of Personnel or your Head of Staff if you want to play a character who knows more than they should. This is often a holding charge so someone can be searched, or taken away before a situation can escalate.
  90. | 2 minutes. Immediate search.
  91. | Forced psychiatric examination. Tracking implant.
  92. Detaining for the duration of investigation.
  93. |-
  94. | 107
  95. | '''Misuse of Public Radio Channels'''
  96. | To continually broadcast unimportant, untrue, or insignificant messages on the public radio frequency.
  97. | This is really only for people who are constantly spamming the radio, such as 'DJs' or Chaplains reading their services over the comms. Screaming fake messages like "halp security is beating me" when they aren't also counts.
  98. | 3 minutes.
  99. | Forced psychiatric examination. Ban from using any radio equipment (Injuction).
  100. |-
  101. | 108
  102. | '''Violation of Injunction'''
  103. | To violate the terms of an injuction made by Security or other legal professions.
  104. | Injunctions can be filed for lots of different things, such as a ban on weapons carrying, or the above radio ban. They can be applied by the Head of Security, Captain, or equivalent. If they break the law in some other way, apply that sentence too.
  105. | 5 minutes.
  106. | Up to 10 minutes.
  107. |-
  108. | 109
  109. | '''Insulting an Officer on Duty'''
  110. | To excessively insult a Head of Staff or member of Security with no valid complaints.
  111. | This is most likely to happen when someone is being fired, or when being arrested. This is really for when they're being extremely annoying and vocal. Being continually rude to your superiors also counts, if they complain too often. Calling security shitcurity is not illegal. Screaming that an officer is a fucking idiot, especially repeatedly, is. Also see misuse of radio.
  112. | 5 minutes.
  113. | Up to 15 minutes. Demotion.
  114. |-
  115. | 110
  116. | '''Slander'''
  117. | To spread false rumours in order to damage someone's reputation.
  118. | Lying about anything to make someone else look bad. For example, an engineer trying to pass off the blame of letting the singularity loose to someone else. Since this has to be proven, it's up to a tribunal or appropriate officer.
  119. | -
  120. | Up to 5 minutes.
  121. |-
  122. | 111
  123. | '''Failure to Execute an Order'''
  124. | To ignore or disregard a superior's valid orders.
  125. | If the order is stupid, or causes you to break a law (e.g. "Release the singularity!" or "Steal that RCD for me!") you can ignore it, and probably make a complaint. However, if it's perfectly doable, lawful, and in your job description, you better do it or resign. If not following an order caused severe damage or loss of life, see "Failure to Execute an Order with Serious Consequences".
  126. | 5 minutes.
  127. | Up to 15 minutes. Demotion.
  128. |-
  129. | 112
  130. | '''Sexual Harassment'''
  131. | To make unwanted sexual advances or obscene remarks towards another employee.
  132. | This is for VERY MINOR things the other person finds offensive that are sexually related. For anything more serious see "Sexual Assault".
  133. | 5 minutes.
  134. | Up to 15 minutes. Demotion.
  135. |-
  136. | 113
  137. | '''Animal Cruelty'''
  138. | To inflict unnecessary suffering or harm upon animals with malicious intent.
  139. | Corporate Policy allows for pets to be kept on Nanotrasen property, legally, if certain guidelines are upheld. The corporation has a strict leash, and/or restriction policy. This means: Animals are only to be outside, in public space IF accompanied by the owner, or are to remain indoors, in the respective owner's workplace. Should an animal be unaccompanied, or within a workplace, impeding work progress, the animal may be deemed a nuisance, and be put down. For example, normal pets, such as dogs and cats running off with tools, or exotic pets, such as nymphs stealing items. On the rare occasion, should an animal gain the knowledge of how to speak, and speaks of past lives, they are to immediately be terminated, and any witnesses are to be subjected to immediate harsh psychiatric treatment. A Formal Review, demotion and medical leave may be needed. Any cases of animal cruelty outside of these circumstances are subject to being detained.
  140. | 5 minutes
  141. | Up to 15 minutes. Demotion.
  142. |-
  143. | 114
  144. | '''Vandalism'''
  145. | To deliberately damage or deface the station without malicious intent.
  146. | Corporate requires a pristine image to be upheld. Although some amounts of artwork is accepted, if it promotes a bad image of any of Nanotrasen's assets, it is to be considered a violation. Cluttered artwork also falls under this category. Pictures numbering more than six (6) in any given area without any rhyme or reason is to be considered vandalism. Violations of this nature are to be considered less harshly than considerable physical damage to property such as windows, or walls.
  147. | Up to 10 minutes. Demotion.
  148. |-
  149. | 115
  150. | '''Threat of Murder or Serious Injury'''
  151. | To threaten to kill or seriously injure an employee.
  152. | The threat has to somewhat tangible. If it's just people arguing over the radio, it's probably not worth it. Someone shouting at someone else while chasing them with a fire extinguisher is probably more valid.
  153. | 2 minutes. Tracking implant.
  154. | Up to 10 minutes with psychiatric evaluation.
  155. |-
  156. | 116
  157. | '''Failure to follow security protocols'''
  158. | To fail the standards set in [[Guide_to_Security#Standard_Procedure|standard security procedures]].
  159. | Examples include, wrongly incarcerating people by setting overly long sentences, using excessive force like tasing someone for a petty crime before making a verbal assesment and leaving people buckled and cuffed too beds in their cells for prolonged periods. Any violent abuse of prisoners should be treated as assault as well as a failure to follow security protocols.
  160. | 10 minutes
  161. | Up to 15 minutes, demotion.
  162. |-
  163. | 117
  164. | '''Disrespect to the Dead'''
  165. | To abuse bodies of dead or previously dead employees.
  166. | Examples include, the chef using bodies in the morgue as meat, Security beating on a prisoners corpse, or using someone's body for 'experimental surgery'. Preventing a body from being cloned or cyborged also falls under this. Consent is not implied - it must be given in writing.
  167. | 5 minutes
  168. | Up to 10 minutes.
  169. |}
  170.  
  171. ===Medium crimes ===
  172. These crimes carry a maximum total sentence of 30 minutes, though typically around 10-15 minutes, and can be set with an officer's discretion. 'Suggested Sentence' values are beside the crimes. 'Additional Penalties' can be decided by authorisation of Captain, Head of Security, or equivalent, and do not require tribunals. Demotion and sentencing for life can only be authorized by the captain, Head of security or The magistrate.

  183. | To ignore or disregard a superior's valid orders, which then causes serious damage to property or life.
  184. | Like the minor crime, except this one has caused serious damage to the station, or seriously injured someone.

If this causes loss of life, refer to 302.
  185. | 15 minutes.
  186. | Demotion. Life sentence.
  187. |-
  188. | 202
  189. | '''Resisting Arrest or Sparking a Manhunt'''
  190. | To not cooperate with an officer who attempts a proper arrest, or to cause a manhunt by hiding from security.

  203. | '''Abuse of Confiscated Equipment'''
  204. | To take and use equipment confiscated as evidence.
  205. | While the corporation strongly denies frequent violators of Corporate Policies, sometimes equipment is confiscated from entities on Nanotrasen property, and is part of an ongoing investigation. Immediately upon confiscation, the item in question should be scanned for prints, have a picture taken, and kept in evidence until the case is closed. Upon closing of the case, if the item in question can be deconstructed, than it should be done at the nearest research facility. Failure to do so will lead to an immediate and expedited Formal Review, possibly resulting in demotion, a hefty detention time in the brig, and/or termination of any current contract. Should the item in question be used, see: violation: 212
  206. | 10 minutes, re-confiscation of equipment.
  207. | Demotion.
  208. |-
  209. | 205
  210. | '''Illegal Detention, Arrest, or Holding'''

  226. | This includes places like the Bridge, AI upload or core, Teleporter, EVA, Captains Office, Atmospherics, or the offices of a Head. Trying to break into the vault with the nuclear warhead is also very bad. Using AI or Cyborg help for infiltration purposes is also considered breaking and entering.

  228. | Imprisonment, up to lifelong.
  229. |-
  230. | 208
  231. | '''Assault'''

  272. | 214
  273. | '''Exceeding Official Powers'''
  274. | To act beyond what is allowed by the Chain of Command.
  275. | This is for any head of staff who abuses the power given to them, such as the Head of Personnel acting like a security officer in a non-emergency, the captain acting as if he is above the law, etc. Heads of Staff trying to order a different department or ignoring the captain also comes under this.
