HR Award

Our association is striving to win the HR Award and is taking the necessary steps to do so.

The HR Award is awarded to universities and research institutions that adopt and progressively implement the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of (Research) Personnel. Research institutions implement the so-called Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) based on the Charter and the Code.

Institutions that fulfill the conditions will receive the "HR Excellence in Research" award from the European Commission, the so-called HR Award. This award represents a commitment to continuously improving working conditions so that staff meet the European standards.

Benefits of implementation:

 

• Improving the quality of care for employees to reach their full potential,
• obtaining research funding from European and domestic research support programs,
• career growth support,
• international attractiveness and visibility,
• transparent selection procedures,
• improving staff development and training,
• networking with a pan-European network of research organizations.

Take a look at the photo gallery to see how HRS4R is reflected in the individual stages of the employee´s life cycle.
