We are committed to providing a positive experience for research staff. We evaluate this through national frameworks which support researchers.
The Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers outlines seven principles underpinning recruitment and recognition and complements the European Charter and Code for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. Our Concordat Plan outlines the action we are taking to embed these principles.
Our HR Excellence in Research accreditation recognises our implementation of these principles. Our 2016 overview report and targeted Action Plan for 2016-18 reflect our current progress and aims. Read the report and action plan.
