Unlike typical companies, part of the mandates of our Security, Infrastructure, and Support Departments is to contribute to the development of the GitLab Product. This follows from these concepts, many of which are also behaviors attached to our [core values](/handbook/values/):

One common concern newcomers to the handbook express is that the strict documentation makes the company more rigid.
In fact, writing down our current process in the handbook has the effect of empowering contributors to propose change.
As a result, this handbook is far from rigid. You only need to look at the [handbook changelog](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/CHANGELOG.html) to see the evidence. Every attempt is made to document guidelines and processes in the handbook. However, it is not possible to document every possible situation or scenario that could potentially occur. Just because something is not yet in the handbook does not mean that it is allowed. GitLab will review each team member's concern or situation based on local laws to determine the best outcome and then update the handbook accordingly. If you have questions, please discuss with your manager or contact the [People Success](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/people-group/) team.
