BIOTIC WORKFORCE MANDATE
Written by Equinox, Updated by DeNuke Approved by RAD-X​

As mandated by Combine legislature, and enforced by the Combine Civil Protection, all biotics under the supervision of the city shall perform as designated by City Administration. Performance designates, but is not limited to: mandatory work cycles, mandatory waste management of city infrastructure and populace, mandatory obedience of Civil Protection authority, and participation in citizen operated functions.

Primarily Biotics exist as a supplemental workforce. They do not solely exist to be punished for actions that they have committed in the past or treated in a manner that would devalue their existence as a supplemental workforce. Biotics cannot be deserviced or damaged without a reason (such as failure to obey the workforce mandate) or direct orders to do so by a higher authority.

Furthermore, as determined by Combine Overwatch, all biotics are to abide by the following regulations with exceptions stated on another document if the current City is participating in a Cohesion Point Program(CPP):

- Biotics must abide by all Citizen regulation.
- Biotics cannot obtain Social Credit Points under any circumstances.

- Biotics can obtain Cohesion Points in Cities that have been approved for the program.
- Biotics are never to enter zones of critical sociostablity (ex. Outlands) unless escorted by at least four members of the Civil Protection or at least three members of the Transhuman Arm.
- Biotics should be assigned jobs by Civil Protection or other individuals of Civil Authority whenever it is clear that they have been left idle for too long during designated working hours unless they have specific employment by the CMU/CWU/CCA.
- If there is currently available universal employment (such as workshifts) then all Biotics MUST attend these unless they already have currently specified work for CP/CWU/CMU/CCA.
- If the Biotics are employed by CWU/CMU/CCA personnel then they must assign tasks for Biotics whenever possible.
- If a Biotic asks for a job then they must receive employment unless there are absolutely no possible tasks that can be assigned to them.
- Citizens MUST have a valid reason for refusing employment. Invalid or Non-Standard justifications for refusal are considered a low level violation (VIOLATION CODE: 14)
- Invalid reasons for refusal include: Overt Xenophobia, Fanatical or Ideological Beliefs, Religious Beliefs, Biological Dislike and Purposeful Exclusion for Unknown Reasons.
- Biotics are prohibited from owning or managing a business unless authorized by a CPP.
- Biotics must be addressed using Biotic ID unless authorized by a CPP.
- If authorized, Biotics can only use assigned collaborative name unless of PRIV Status.
- Biotics may only claim residence within biotic designated housing unless authorized by a CPP
- Biotics are prohibited owning storage units unless authorized by a CPP
- The Adminstration must designate a biotic designated housing.
- This may not be inside the Nexus and biotics must have free access to this location.
- Biotics communication in their natural language is prohibited due to security concerns.
- Biotics must communicate in a servile and deferential tone when speaking with loyalists or Overwatch operatives (Civil Protection, transhuman arm, etc.). Insults, criticism, unsavory comments, etc., when directed at these groups shall constitute a violation of this provision (unless they are of OBEDIENT and above).
- Biotics are prohibited from approaching City Administration unless requested to do so by City Administration or Overwatch Forces (unless they are of PRIVILEGED Status)
- Biotics are absolutely prohibited from tampering with their shackles or collars themselves.
- Biotics nail length is not to exceed three centimeters, and may not be capable of causing bodily harm.
- Biotics may not wear clothing or bags unless authorized by a CPP
- If permitted, Biotic dress is to not cover the collar under any circumstance unless the dress provides the information on the collar.​

Failure to abide by these regulations will result in authoritative response. Response may include, but is not limited to:

- Verbal Re-education
- Physical Re-Education (Do not remove limbs)
- Withholding of Rations
- Investigation into sustained biotic compliance.
- Internment within biotic harvesting apparatus.
- Biotic Nulling
- Off-World Relocation
- Deservicement

Biotic compliance with this mandate is mandatory under all circumstances, with no exception.

This mandate is officiated by the Combine Overwatch Forces, Global Combine Administration, and all Combine Municipality Administrations. This mandate is GLOBAL. No local or sector legislation can directly conflict with any aspect of this mandate. Legislation that directly conflicts with this mandate will be automatically withdrawn by the appropriate authorities.

COWF enforcement of this mandate is mandatory under all circumstances.
Overt failure to enforce this mandate will result in internal investigation.

This should relieve some restrictions and put less strain on both the Biotics and Civil Protection.

BY GLOBAL ADMINISTRATION DIRECTIVES

---

The following directives have been established for Biotics in all City Centers.

1. Biotics are not permitted to obtain Social Credit Scores and are therefore exempt from Citizen Loyalty Programs.
2. This will be replaced with a new 'Cohesion Point' Program for Biotics known to be loyal to the Combine in CITY 24 ONLY
3. All current Biotics will have their social credit scores set to Zero
4. All current Biotics with items considered loyalist will have them removed unless the Biotic is considered a Grand Collaborator in City 24 and been nullified.
5. Biotics which have been previously considered to be loyal to the Combine will be immediately signed up to the Cohesion Point Program and given a appropriate refund of their previous social credit scores if they exist inside City 24
6. The implementation of the Cohesion Point program can only be authorized by OICN or Global Administration (S24). Only City 24 currently has implementation privileges.

Administer Immediately.

 

[TheDeNuke]

This has been updated for lore reasons.

Cohesion Points have only been implemented in City 24 currently.
SC's cannot be obtained by Biotics anywhere in the world.
