WORKING ENVIRONMENT

Research Working Environment

As a researcher working in Europe, both you and your employer have rights and obligations. The European Commission has several initiatives in place to make research careers in Europe more attractive: discover them and let your colleagues and friends know about them!

CHARTER & CODE FOR RESEARCHERS

In 2005, the European Commission adopted a European Charter for Researchers and a Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. These two documents, addressed to researchers as well as employers and funders in both the public and private sectors, are key elements to make research careers in Europe more attractive.

IMPLEMENTING THE CHARTER & CODE: THE HRS4R

Many European institutions are in the process of developing a special Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) to implement the Charter and Code. When job-hunting, look for the ‘HR Excellence in Research’ award – it means an employer has put a strategy in place to provide an attractive working environment.

HRS4R

PENSIONS

Even if you haven't thought about retirement yet, it is a good idea to get started now to ensure a comfortable pension.
