Functioning as a comprehensive resource guideline, this segment is designed to empower members with profound insights into the company’s fundamental principles, intricate processes, and steadfast guidelines that collectively shape the essence of Stateview Corporation.
REFORM INFORMATION & INITIATIVES
At Stateview, we are dedicated to cultivating a community grounded in principles of fairness, accountability, and inclusivity. In pursuit of these ideals, we are introducing a series of reforms aimed at enhancing transparency and ensuring equal opportunities for all members, regardless of their rank or status. These reforms are designed to fortify the bonds within our community and elevate the overall Stateview experience.
Restructuring of Ranks and Reform Process:
The following reforms outline the new ranks that reformed members will receive:
[1] Chief of Staff to Chairman of the Board will be reformed to: Board of Governors.
[2] Community Advisory Council to Board of Governors will be reformed to: Facility Director.
[3] Chairperson to Facility Director will be reformed to: Superintendent.
Impact of Rank Purchases on Reforms:
Purchasing a rank does not exempt members from meeting quota and activity requirements; they are expected to fulfill these obligations on par with all other members without any exceptions. Consequently, members who acquire a rank through purchase are equally subject to the rank reform process.
The Review Process:
Stateview’s Community Management conducts reforms by considering seven essential factors. These factors encompass:
- Game Activity
- Department Activity
- Community Rating
- Overall Performance
- Organizational Impact
- Leadership Recognition
- General Support & Participation
The Appealing Process:
We highly value the opinions and perspectives of our members, and this extends to providing a platform for appeals. If any member believes that the reforms have adversely affected them or has specific concerns that need addressing, they will have a 72-hour window to appeal. During this period, individuals can submit their appeals, outlining their reasons for reconsideration.
ENFORCING DISCRETIONARY INFRACTIONS
The section defines Stateview’s approach to addressing lower-level rule violations, with a specific focus on individual circumstances. The primary goal is to implement enforcement measures thoughtfully, considering factors such as user statistics and the overall context of the situation(s). Under this policy, each high-ranking officer or agency is granted the authority to exercise discretionary infractions, deviating from the strict adherence to existing regulations. However, it is required that, when imposing discretionary infractions, the enforcing officer provides a clear rationale based on proper factors for determination.
Factors for Determining Discretionary Consequences
Age, developmental, and maturity levels of the parties involved and their relationship to Stateview Correctional Facility.
- The impact on Stateview’s daily operation;
- The surrounding circumstances of the incident;
- The nature and severity of the behavior(s) in question;
- Instances of past or ongoing patterns of behavior;
- The relationships between the parties involved;
- The broader context in which the alleged incidents occurred.
This approach ensures a nuanced and context-aware application of discretionary consequences, aligning with the overall objective of maintaining a fair and considerate regulation enforcement system within Stateview.
EMPLOYEE RESIGNATION & RANK PLACEMENT
When a member holding the position of Chairperson - Board of Governors makes the decision to resign from their role, they are presented with a range of options for their subsequent involvement within the Stateview community. The available choices for their departure include:
[1]: Transition to the role of a Low Security Inmate, contributing to the community from a different perspective.
[2]: Elevate their status to that of a Respected Inmate
[Prison Commissioner+], showcasing continued commitment and influence.
[3]: Undertake the responsibilities of a Superintendent, contributing to the community’s well-being in a distinctive capacity.
This flexible approach to staff departures ensures that members can tailor their exit strategy to best suit their preferences, maintaining a sense of agency in shaping their ongoing relationship with Stateview.
EMPLOYEE PROMOTION STANDARDS
Promotions within Stateview are exclusively awarded to individuals who successfully undergo promotional sessions or consistently exhibit exceptional behavior and activity.
