Harassment
The University does not tolerate any form of harassment or victimisation and expects all members of the University community, its visitors and contractors to treat each other with respect, courtesy and consideration.
The University has a network of volunteer harassment advisors who offer confidential support and advice. To find out who the harassment advisors are in your department or college, please email harassment.line@admin.ox.ac.uk.
If you would prefer to speak to a Harassment Advisor who is LGBT, we have several who can be contacted direct. For more information visit the Harassment Advisor Network webpage.
