Chapter 2. Core Departmental Responsibilities

2.1 Facility Maintenance

E&Ts is responsible for keeping the generator up and running; keeping the doors and vents repaired is Technicians’ main responsibility. This ensures that the Security Department can see during riots and containment breaches, and ensures that rogue DCDs (Disguised Class-D) cannot roam the facility freely.

Chapter 3. E&Ts Mandate

3.1 Rules and Regulations

Following CoE: All members of E&Ts personnel must follow the CoE provided by the Ethics Committee at all times.
Following OSED Guidelines (not implemented): All members of E&Ts personnel must follow the OSED Guidelines.
Dress Code: If you have a vest on, you must wear a waist ID over a lanyard one. You are only permitted to wear a hazmat suit when entering the BHCZ or 610’s containment chamber.
Identification: You must always present ID when asked by a combative on-site, even when wearing an ID badge.
Interference: You may not interfere with other departments’ duties at any time.

Firearm Usage: You are only permitted to use the G20 pistol while on the E&Ts team, and you may only use this pistol for self-defense. You are not to kill Disguised Class-D if you spot them. You must call it out over the radio instead. The only exception to this rule is if you are given a weapon by a member of the O5 Council; you may still only use this weapon for self-defense unless told otherwise by the O5.

“Farming”: E&Ts are not allowed to “farm” repairs. This includes purposely breaking doors on Class-D and then switching to E&T to repair them. This doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to play on Class-D; just do not farm repairs if you do. This is subject to change.

3.2 Strike System

E&Ts personnel may receive a strike for not complying with the CoE or OSED guidelines. Below is a list of strikes and their consequences.

Strike 1: Receiving 1 strike will result in a warning and a strike on your permanent record.
Strike 2: Receiving 2 strikes will result in another warning and another strike on your permanent record.
Strike 3: Receiving 3 strikes will result in a demotion.
Strike 4: Receiving 4 strikes will result in a suspension from the department. (The amount of time will be decided by E&Ts Executives.)
Strike 5: Receiving 5 strikes will result in exilement from the department.

E&Ts Executives reserve the right to demote and/or exile any member of E&Ts personnel if they have committed a serious crime.
