A non-discriminating place for +working and learning supports the development and success of the members of our +university community. JYU takes care of the quality and availability of +guidance as well as the accessibility of education. We behave appropriately, +are appreciative and support each other also in challenging situations. We do +not tolerate any inappropriate treatment, harassment, discrimination or +bullying. + +We promote equality and non-discrimination in our university community in +accordance with the strategy and legislation as well as the aims set jointly +with the university community. The aims and development measures are described +in strategy development programmes and the +[Equality Plan for 2019–2021][equality plan]. + +[equality plan]: https://uno.jyu.fi/fi/ohjeet/yliopisto-tyonantajana/tyosuojelu-ja-tasa-arvo/jyu-equality-plan-2019-2021.pdf + +## Promoting appropriate conduct in our community + +Our university community does not accept any inappropriate treatment, bullying, +nor sexual or other harassment toward the staff or students. We will intervene +in and sort out any problematic situations of this kind. + +## What is inappropriate behaviour + +Inappropriate treatment refers to generally unacceptable demeanour toward +another person. It may occur, for example, as continuous and unjustified +criticism toward one’s work, negative or harmful gossip, exclusion from the +work community or repeated improper behaviour such as taunting or yelling. + +Sexual harassment is most strikingly inappropriate behaviour. It is undesirable, +one-sided sexually-tinged behaviour, which the other person finds unpleasant and +insulting. Sexual harassment may be verbal or physical. Sexual attention turns +into harassment if it is continued although the other person expresses that the +behaviour is undesirable. + +## Dealing with inappropriate treatment and harassment cases + +If someone experiences inappropriate treatment or feels being harassed, the +person must express it to the other party. If the misbehaviour continues, the +issue must be reported to the immediate supervisor and the head of the unit. +If the harassing person is a supervisor, the matter must be reported to the +person’s supervisor. Supervisors and/or heads of units are obliged to do their +best to stop the misbehaviour. + +It is essential that the unit management takes responsibility for solving the +situation. If a harassed person finds it difficult to bring out the matter with +the harasser or a supervisor, especially in case of sexual or gender-based +harassment, he/she can contact any of the contact persons listed at the end of +this brochure. Discussion with a contact person helps to sort out and solve the +situation. The discussions are always confidential. + +## Contact persons + +### Students + +Student Union’s harassment contact persons: + + * Juulia Saukkonen <hairinta.nainen@jyy.fi>, + * Teemu Rahikka <hairinta.mies@jyy.fi>, + * General <hairinta@jyy.fi> + +University wellbeing advisers: + + * Your unit’s student welfare advisor (goodie) + IT-Department: + * Niina Ormshaw <goodie-it@jyu.fi> + * Eeva, Juuli, Tiina, Ville <hyvis-it@jyu.fi> + * Welfare coordinator + Hanna Ahola, 040 8054352, <hanna.r.ahola@jyu.fi> + +### Staff + + * Equality contact person, Occupational Safety Officer, HR Specialist + Piia Löppönen, 0400 247 689, <piia.lopponen@jyu.fi> + * Occupational safety representative + Heli Niskanen, 040 805 3402, <heli.m.niskanen@jyu.fi> + * Occupational safety representative + Jorma Lind, 0400 247428, <jorma.lind@norssi.jyu.fi> + +## Attribution + +This covenant is adopted from [University of Jyväskylä Code of Conduct][code of conduct]. + +[code of conduct]: https://www.jyu.fi/en/university/organisation-and-managementregulations-and-principles/code-of-conduct] -- GitLab
