Stand Up Speak Out: Staff
Stand Up Speak Out is our campaign to encourage colleagues to take action against bullying, harassment and other forms of unacceptable behaviour they may experience or witness at work.
We want everyone at the University to feel that they belong and work together to create a positive working culture. For times when this isn't the case, there are a range of policies, resources and services that staff can access to support them to stand up and speak out.

Stand Up Speak Out engages everybody in the cultural change that is required to build a diverse and inclusive University community where people from the broadest possible range of backgrounds can reach their full potential and thrive at work. We have a personal responsibility to treat each other in the way we would wish to be treated ourselves. Together we can create an environment where everybody can reach their full potential without fear of harassment, prejudice or discrimination.
