Changes at "Human Resources Policy"

Diversity: The SAB considers to which extent diversity (including gender, age, ethnic and cultural background, and disciplines) is a concern while it also evaluates the actions and plans for the future of the RG. In the self-evaluation, the group reflects on where it stands at present concerning diversity in relation to its aims, strategy, and policy. Furthermore, the RG reflects on how it guarantees diversity-promoting HR practices such as inclusive selection and appraisal procedures.

Talent Management: The SAB considers the RG’s policies on talent selection and development in relation to its aims and strategy. More specifically, it evaluates the group’s recruitment policies, opportunities for training and development, coaching and mentoring, and career perspectives for researchers and research support staff in different phases of their careers. In the self-evaluation, the RG reflects on its selection, training, promotion, and retention policy and on how it offers opportunities for diverse career paths. This reflection includes considering how the RG ensures that researchers are properly evaluated, rewarded, and incentivised.
