Contingent Works, Bromley Town

Say hello
This is not just a rental office. We want all our members to be considerate and welcoming. Please treat people like you would at home. Don’t ignore them, show them around, or ask how they are. If someone looks lost say ‘hello’ and point them in the right direction.
Entrance and exit
All members can tap in at reception from 8:30 am-5:30 pm. The door entry system and CCTV are there to protect you and the space, do not prop the door open for any reason. Contingent Works is fully insured and while it takes precautions for the safekeeping of its members and their belongings, we do not assume responsibility for lost or stolen items. As such, you do or will obtain, at your sole cost and expense, any insurance you deem necessary.
Cleanliness
We’re not sure how clean or messy your homes are but please think of others and be tidy. The cleaners will make sure everything is vacuumed, wiped, and dusted. They’ll clean the bathrooms and the kitchen, empty the bins and generally make sure the space is a great place to work.
Please put any dirty crockery and cutlery in the dishwasher.
Please clean up after your guests.
There are bins for general waste and recycling, please use the right ones.
If the rubbish is overflowing, either let someone know or empty it for brownie points.
If you want to smoke or vape then please do so outside.
Internet and telephones
We have a 1Gb leased line, which means there are 1000mps upload and download.
Printing
There are printers on each floor for printing and scanning. All paper and toner are provided as part of your plan with reasonable usage. If you need to print a book or want to print on special paper please let us know and we can work out a rate.
Music
We know how divisive this can be in an office, but this isn’t just an office. Some open work areas will have music and some will be quieter so you can choose according to your taste.
Sharing
This is your space but please be conscious of your neighbour's work habits.
If they have their headphones on please send them a digital message to not disrupt their workflow.
For those with headphones, if someone is having a conversation near you that is bothering you either feel free to move or ask them to keep it down.
Everyone should be able to have short conversations that are appropriate for all to hear. If you want to talk longer then a breakout area or meeting room may be better.
Long phone conversations or video calls should be taken in the phone rooms, in a meeting room, or outside.
Be thoughtful and mindful of what you share openly in the space, speakerphone use in the open is never appropriate.
Guests
Guests are welcome, you’re the ambassadors for your space so please make them welcome.
Community, Flex, and Cowork members can bring one guest in regular hours, 8:30 am-5:30 pm.
Resident and Studio Members can bring two guests in regular hours, 8:30 am-5:30 pm.
You, the member, must be in the space at all times with your guests.
Your membership can be immediately revoked without refund because of actions taken by you, your guests, your business associates, your service providers, or any other visitors or invitees on your behalf.
A person that continually meets you at Contingent Works (for example every week, or every few days) and stays for an extended period of time is no longer considered a guest and must purchase an actual coworking membership. Contingent Works reserves the right to determine when a recurring guest is considered a candidate for membership.
Dogs
We welcome well-behaved dogs. Remember that some people don’t like dogs so as long as they are leashed to your chair, don’t bark, get on with other dogs and people then they’re welcome. If they distract members from working they must stay at home.
Termination
Contingent Works reserves the right to terminate any membership at any time without notice and without a refund.
Failure to follow any of the guidelines outlined in this document can result in termination of membership.
Liability
Your membership, or other agreed use of the space, does not create or give you a tenancy, leasehold, or other real property rights or interests whatsoever.
Indemnification and Release of Liability.
