Equality and non-discrimination policy

The Equality and Non-Discrimination Plan supports the development of the LUT Universities into a work community where all members of the community are treated with respect. Our community does not accept inap-propriate treatment, discrimination or harassment. Equal treatment is actualised in interactive situations and in personnel management, recruitment, working conditions, salaries, and career development. The plan aims in a goal-oriented manner to attain the commitment of all LUT Universities personnel to promoting equality and non-discrimination.

General collective agreement for universities

LUT University complies with the general collective agreement for universities in Finland (SIVISTA), which negotiates the working conditions with the trade unions representing the personnel (i.e. collective bargaining).

The current agreement is valid from 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2025. See an unofficial English translation here.
