Code of Conduct

Shared rules for REKATI events and groups, adapted from the Tech Workers Coalition community guide.

This Code of Conduct applies to all REKATI events, groups and conversations. It is adapted from the Tech Workers Coalition community guide.

Respect

REKATI is open to tech workers from all backgrounds. We expect respect, understanding and openness. Show up, take part, and assume good intentions. When you give feedback, keep it constructive: honest, but to improve things, not to hurt.

No harassment

Disagreement is normal. Harassment in any form is not accepted. Examples:

  • unwelcome comments about a person’s lifestyle choices and practices
  • deliberate intimidation or antagonism
  • exclusionary jokes or comments
  • unwelcome sexual attention or physical contact
  • sustained disruption of events or discussions
  • continued one-on-one contact after being asked to stop
  • comments that demean someone for gender, sexual orientation, disability, appearance, body size, race, age or religion
  • threats of violence

Organisers may ask a person to leave an event or group.

Consent before photos or naming someone

Do not take or share a photo of someone without their consent. Do not name a Kawan outside REKATI without their consent.

What is said in a Lingkar Kawan stays there

A story told in a Lingkar Kawan belongs to the person who told it. Do not repeat it outside the circle.

No recording without consent

Do not record audio, video or screens at events and in groups without the agreement of everyone involved.

Do not share others’ workplace details

Do not share the name of a company, manager, team or any other detail that could reveal where someone works, unless they shared it themselves. Think about what you write in a group, too: assume a message in a group can reach people you did not mean it for.

Raising a concern

If you experience or witness harassment or another breach, tell the organisers, in person at an event or through a channel on the Contact page. Organisers respond quickly, usually in private, and involve other organisers when needed. Most actions are friendly reminders.
