Dean's barbecue postponed to 26 September
As a result of the flood emergency and the postponement of the start of classes, we also postponed the Dean's Grill by one week.
We crossed together a project milestone in implementing the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers - HRS4R, HR Award at the Faculty of Science MU: We have submitted Self-Evaluation after 2 years to the European Commission – the Internal Review and the Revised Action Plan.
The following activities in the last 6 months helped us to reach this phase:
In October 2020, the employees and Ph.D. students expressed their views on employee care in the Employee Survey. They significantly contributed to new ideas and priorities for the revised HR Award Action Plan 2021-23. Thank you to all who replied. Many suggestions were included in the plan for the coming 3 years (e.g., increased information about career development opportunities, support for financing Ph.D. studies, continuous improvement of working conditions, etc.).
During the autumn, we have prepared a pilot group for the Evaluation of employees process according to the new Dean’s directive. Consequently, employee evaluation will be launched for the first six departments as of January 2021.
We have also finalized the Onboarding Process, which should provide support to the workplaces that newcomers are joining, while bringing them a pleasant first experience. Next year, we will train the faculty's workplaces in this new process, and, at the same time, we will cooperate with the MU Rector's Office on its automation to reduce the administrative burden.
Together with the Department of Health and Safety and Legal, we have also upgraded the documentation on occupational health and safety and fire protection for supervisors as part of a quality and professional care for employees. Related training for supervisors, in addition to the mandatory statutory training, will be provided during next year.
Your suggestions regarding employee care are always welcome and the HR Award Focus Group is open to new members. Please write to us.
We want to thank you for your kind support and wish you a peaceful Advent and Merry Christmas. We are looking forward to our further cooperation in the year 2021.
Yours,
