Sexual harassment in the workplace
Sexual harassment in the workplace is prohibited.
Boundary violations and assaults usually take place without witnesses. Those affected who suffer sexual assault or are victims of stalking often feel ashamed, insecure, humiliated, and frightened, and have to accept disadvantages in their professional environment, job security, development, and career. The University Medical Center takes a clear stance on this and punishes every violation.
We support our managers and employees preventively by offering regular and comprehensive training on how to deal with sexual harassment and stalking. For those affected, we have defined procedures and complaint channels in an action plan and designated contact points.
