Entrances and common areas are under video surveillance for safety and security. In general, we do not aim cameras at individual desks.
Your Responsibilities
Treat the space and your neighbors with respect. When you leave, make sure the space is in the same condition—or better—than when you arrived.
Your stuff is your responsibility. Do not leave anything behind unless it is on your dedicated desk or in designated secure storage.
Practice network safety. We cannot accept responsibility for network outages, hacking, or theft, though we will do what we can to help.
Use your own stuff. If you need something, ask. We’re here to help.
Respect confidentiality. When you see something on somebody’s monitor, at the printer, or on a whiteboard, forget you saw it.
Practice kindness. We have zero tolerance for harassment. Every member and guest should feel welcome regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, or other personal attributes or beliefs.
Think before you click. No torrents, pornography, or excessive streaming unrelated to work.
Keep it legal. We have zero tolerance for illegal or generally offensive activities.
Events require advance notice. Tell us before hosting an event in the space.
Be key smart. Do not lend or copy entrusted keys or admit guests except for your meeting. Lost or stolen keys may be deactivated.
Keep us updated. Tell us about changes to contact and payment information and read service update emails.
Noise
You are free to make normal work-related noise, including calls and conversations. Bring good noise-cancelling headphones if you need quiet. Play music only when it won’t interfere with others. If you will be on many calls, consider a private booth; be aware they are not completely soundproof.
Access
In general, spaces are available 7am–7pm Monday–Friday, and sometimes on weekends or by prior arrangement. Sheboygan Works may schedule occasional blackout dates for events.
Meetings and Guests
Feel free to invite people to join meetings in a reserved room. Guests who plan to stay and work should rent a space or purchase general admission.
Bikes and Gear
Bikes and outerwear can be stowed in the side entry or near your workspace when room allows.
Renovations & Improvements
Sheboygan Works may make additional facility improvements and will try to minimize disruption.
Pets
No pets are allowed. This keeps the space usable for all.
