Prevent Bullying at UNE

The 2007 Voice survey results indicated that more than 40% of UNE staff believed that bullying behaviour was an issue in the UNE workplace.  In response to this a working group was established to:

  1. develop strategies to eliminate bullying behaviour at UNE both among staff and student groups;
  2. provide a support network and resources to assist targets of bullying behaviour; and
  3. prevent future incidences of bullying behaviour. 

This page will be regularly updated to provide UNE staff and students with information and resources.

If you believe you are being bullied ...

Discuss your concerns with a friend, trusted colleague, your supervisor, OHS representative, EO advisor or a university counsellor.
