Social Safety at ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø
Social safety is a matter that concerns all of us. All employees, students and guests of ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø are collectively responsible for a safe and positive study and working environment. ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø expects everyone - employee, student or guest - to deal responsibly with the ethical aspects of the study and working environment.
We promote social safety by arranging better formal structures. In addition, it is essential that we call each other to account and point out when things are not going well. But what if you suspect that something inappropriate is going on, have a conflict of interest yourself or are confronted with undesirable behavior?
