People interact in various ways at work or university. The nature of these encounters can range from glances and conversations to collegial gestures, flirting or even erotic signals. Personal boundaries are crucial in all of these interactions. What may seem normal or welcome to some can be experienced as sexual harassment by others. Wherever these boundaries lie, they must be respected without exception.

The University of Lucerne is committed to promoting respectful interactions and does not tolerate any form of sexual harassment. To underscore this, the university has issued a policy statement on the protection against sexual harassment.

We take the integrity of everyone who studies and works at the University of Lucerne seriously and are dedicated to ensuring it is protected. We offer swift and professional support to those affected, whether they are victims, perpetrators, managers, those wrongly accused, or bystanders.  Our guide offers valuable information and support to help you set boundaries and understand your responsibilities.
