Confidential Counselors


What can a confidential counselor do for me?

ERIM wants to promote and provide an open, safe and inclusive research culture in which researchers feel comfortable not only discussing research standards and dilemmas but also to hold each other accountable for compliance and report suspicions of non-compliance to dedicated confidential counselors.

Are you experiencing any unwanted behaviors from your colleagues? Are you pressured to perform your work in a way that you believe unethical? Confidential counselors can be the first point of contact so that they can walk with you to determine next steps. The confidential counselor will keep consultations with you confidential.
