Victimisation and harassment

Lund University does not tolerate abuse, harassment, or any other form of discriminatory treatment. On this page, you will find information on how to report victimisation or harassment, what support is available and where you can read more about the University’s work to ensure a safe working environment.

Report abuse or harassment

If you feel that you have been subjected to abuse or harassment, or if you see someone else being subjected to it, you should report the incident.

You should, in the first instance, contact your line manager, i.e. the head of department. If this is not possible, you can contact the next senior manager, such as the dean, or speak to your workplace health and safety representative.

The manager is obliged to investigate reports of abuse or harassment.

Report via the university’s incident reporting system

You can also report discriminatory treatment via Lund University’s incident reporting system.
