Staff policy
What is staff policy?
A staff policy must, in principle, describe and comprise all the aspects characterising the university as a workplace and communicate this to both existing and future employees.
The Personnel Policy Committee at the University of Copenhagen has been working intensively on formulating the basic staff policy principles which will now be implemented and applied locally.

The basic principles will not stand alone
The Personnel Policy Committee is preparing a personnel policy handbook which will contain agreements and guidelines etc. within the field of staff policy. Until the handbook has been approved by the General Collaboration Committee (HSU), the previous agreements and rules from the three merged universities will still apply. See the Applicable staff policy guidelines.
Staff policy guidelines, including implementation at LIFE
In 2008, the General Collaboration Committee approved several new guidelines.
The approved guidelines will, generally, enter into force on 1 January 2009.
As the individual guidelines are approved by the General Collaboration Committee, they will be uploaded to the employee portal and the Staff Handbook.
At LIFE, the guidelines will be implemented locally, i.e. via the local cooperation committee (LSU).
