5B

As I don't currently have a "work place" I thought I'd look into the Code of Conduct/Rules and regulations in potential future work places.

Choir Singers should:
  • be committed, reliable and punctual, always informing the choir trainer before being absent from rehearsals or services/concerts.
  • be an outstanding member of the choir, setting an excellent example to other singers through attendance, behaviour, commitment, and musical standards.
  • understand the delicate balance between giving a strong musical lead and blending with other singers.
  • understand that the choir is a team and that the practicalities of running the team are imporant, e.g. setting up rehearsal rooms, collecting music, etc.
  • take responsibility for the less experienced singers.

Here's a section out of Perry Road Recording Studio's Terms and Condition which most related to our kind of Code of Conduct. 

7.             Hirer's Compliance
7.1          The Hirer undertakes that it shall not bring into the Studio any alcohol, drugs, any illegal substance or any other substance for abuse, or any material which are of a dangerous nature, or an explosive nature or any materials whose possession storage or use might contravene any statute local regulations or bye-laws or constitute a nuisance to third parties.  The Company shall be entitled to immediately remove any such materials or substances described above.
7.2          The Hirer shall observe perform and comply with all applicable statues rules regulations and orders relating to its activities on the Company’s premises including without limitation the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and all associated regulations and approved codes of practice and the Hirer undertakes to ensure so far as reasonably possible the health safety and welfare at work of all employees of the Hirer and persons providing services for the benefit of the Hirer.
7.3        The Hirer confirms that the Company and any inspector appointed by the Health and Safety Executive, any fire officer or officer of any other regulatory body having authority over the Studio shall have the right to inspect without prior notice at any reasonable time the Equipment and the Studio for the purpose of complying with such inspector or officers duties or for the purpose of ensuring compliance by the Hirer of its obligations.
7.4        The Hirer shall arrive and leave the Studio in a considerate manner without causing any nuisance undue noise or disruption to others and shall comply with all access exit and parking requirements stipulated by the Company.
7.5        In the event of the Hirer’s failure to comply with any of these terms and conditions the Company shall be entitled to immediately terminate the period for hire and to retain all payments made by the Hirer. For avoidance of doubt the Hirer shall be liable in any event to pay for the full period of Studio hire booked.

Buskers may not:
  • Cause or promote a public disturbance
  • Block pathways, fire exits or impede traffic
  • Play louder than the volume limit set by the local authority
  • Hinder or prevent the passage of any emergency service or personnell
  • Actively request money by asking for a donation or by shaking a collection box (unless they are collecting on behalf of a charitable cause in which case permission to collect must be sought from the local authority)
All of the behaviour guidelines, rules and regulations are very site specific, the standard traits are on respect for others, the premises and the audience which is included in the code of conduct I put together for a solo singer.
