TAB Charter - Code of Conduct

The Code of Conduct for the Technical Advisory Board (TAB) is a set of guidelines that govern the behavior and interactions of its members. This code is essential for maintaining a respectful, inclusive, and collaborative environment within the TAB and the broader OHDSI community.

Core Principles

The TAB's Code of Conduct is built around the following core principles:

• Respect and Inclusivity: All members are expected to show respect and inclusivity in their interactions. This includes respecting diverse viewpoints and backgrounds, and fostering an environment where everyone feels welcome to contribute.
• Professionalism: Members should conduct themselves professionally at all times. This includes being prepared for meetings, adhering to agreed-upon schedules, and communicating in a clear and respectful manner.
• Collaboration: The TAB values collaboration and open discussion. Members are encouraged to actively participate, share knowledge, and support each other in achieving the board's goals.

Addressing Violations

• Transparent Process: Any violations of the Code of Conduct will be addressed promptly and transparently.
  • Reporting Mechanism: Any concerns or violations of the Code of Conduct should be raised with the TAB chair.
  • Resolution: Violations will be investigated fairly, and appropriate actions will be taken to resolve the issue.

The TAB's adherence to this Code of Conduct is fundamental in ensuring a productive, respectful, and collaborative working environment, which is vital for the success of the OHDSI open source projects.
