Dignity and Respect
Everyone has the right to be treated with dignity and respect and all forms of harassment, bullying, and discrimination in any form are unacceptable and impact an individual’s health and wellbeing in the workplace or in their studies.
The University of East London is committed to fostering a positive working and learning environment that celebrates diversity, challenges inequality, nurtures an inclusive and diverse community and ensures equality of opportunity for all. We are committed to providing an environment free from bullying, harassment or discrimination and require all our staff students, visitors, the public and contractors to be treated, and to treat others, with dignity and respect.
Individuals are encouraged to report any instances of harassment, bullying, or discrimination that they experience through the Report and Support tool which is available to all staff and students and has the option of remaining anonymous when making a report.
The information below underpins this statement and the right of any individual to raise a complaint or disclose any instance of non-academic misconduct (including sexual misconduct).
If you are a student making a report or if a complaint has been made, the below flowcharts provide you with the process that will be followed following a report.
If you are a staff member making a report or if a complaint has been made against you, please contact the Department for People and Culture who will be able to advise you further.
