Policy on Bullying and Harassment
Wellcome considers bullying and harassment of any kind, in any context, to be unacceptable. We believe that all people working at Wellcome or involved in Wellcome-funded activities should be able to work in an environment where everyone is treated, and treats others, fairly and with respect.
GW4-CAT fully support this policy, which is available to view at:
