*Levels of confidentiality

Any person employed by UNIL or an entity attached to it has a duty to inform the Rectorate of serious cases that may be qualified as violations of personal rights (such as cases of sexual harassment) in accordance with Article 321a of the Code of Obligations, in order to enable the Rectorate to take action: the Rectorate has an obligation to take measures by virtue of its duty to act as an employer and is the only one entitled to do so.

Only entities subject to medical and professional confidentiality can guarantee total confidentiality.

If you wish to be guaranteed confidentiality in the first instance, you may contact a person of trust.
