Elections to the Staff Committee were held in mid-December 2021.
Of the 12 seats to be filled (4 per body), only 10 were filled, including all those of the PAT.
This is due to the fact that, in accordance with Directive 1.27 - article 3, the teaching staff and the intermediate staff may not each delegate more than one member of the same faculty.
The members of the Board elected in January 2022 are:
Minutes will be taken by Marco Mazzilli, a law student at UNIL.
I joined UNIL and the CHUV in 2020 as an associate professor and senior physician specializing in pathology. Prior to my studies at the Universities of Heidelberg and Göttingen in Germany, I trained as a pathologist and did further training in neuropathology and cytopathology in Zurich, Aarau, Berne and Berne. Cytopathology and neuropathology are also at the heart of my diagnostic, research and teaching activities. I am also an expert in the fields of neuropathology and cytopathology. I am keen to contribute to the links between UNIL and the CHUV in my activities, which was one of the reasons for my involvement in CoPers. |
I joined UNIL in 2004 as a full professor in the Information Systems Department at HEC. Prior to that, I obtained my doctorate in computer science from EPFL in 1998, and then worked in industry, notably for Sun Microsystems as a software architect. I am a graduate of the University of Geneva.On my return to the academic world, my research focused on merging reactive architectures, with more than a hundred peer-reviewed publications. Although I work at HEC, I also teach algorithms and programming at the School of Criminal Sciences. Over the years, I have held a number of different positions, such as head of department, head of doctoral school, member of the academic planning committee, member of several recruitment committees, and so on. These activities have given me a good idea of how UNIL works. The two missions of UNIL are teaching and research, and the professors play a central role in this, and their working conditions are a key factor in the smooth running of our university. I am committed to representing the teaching staff to ensure that the needs and constraints of professors are taken into account to the best of my ability, and that they can carry out their research and teaching activities in the best possible conditions, in harmony with the other academic bodies. |
I have been a master teacher and researcher at the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies since 2012, and my teaching activities are mainly organised at the College of Humanities (EPFL). After a thesis in sociology and an Habilitation to direct research, defended in 2012 at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, my work addresses the question of scholarly practices, the anthropology of knowledge and the history of academic institutions. With a strong commitment to issues relating to working conditions and career development, I feel it is important, through the CoPers, to combat the effects of exclusion or marginalisation that often result from organisational malfunctioning, but also from an inequitable division of powers. |
I am a Master of teaching and research type 1 à 75%. I work in the Arts faculty at the section SLAS, where I teach Russian linguistics, civilisation and grammar. I studied at UNIL and have been working in the same section since 1999. In my faculty, I was a member of the sub-committee for language teaching and currently sit on the Serval Consultative Commission, where I have worked in collaboration with members of the intermediary corps. I was a doctoral student, then a post-doctoral student and an SNSF doctoral student. I am familiar with the problems faced by my colleagues, particularly those on long-term contracts and women colleagues who have to slow down or put their careers on hold following maternity leave. I have also managed a number of research projects, including an SNSF project, and have experience of managing a team of young researchers: monitoring research, managing specifications and activity reports. I believe that I can best represent the expectations of all the intermediary bodies.I myself have been affected by conflictual situations between employees of UNIL and the SNSF, and I want to help ensure that the Personnel Commission resolves these situations as constructively as possible. |
I have been a Master of teaching and research at the Institute of Sports Science of Lausanne (ISSUL) since 2015. I was also a teaching assistant at UNIL between 2006 and 2011, where I defended a doctoral thesis, before moving to England for several years to complete a post-doctorate at De Monfort University in Leicester. I am a historian specialising in Swiss history (nineteenth to twenty-first centuries), with a particular focus on the governing bodies of sport, and I am currently supervising a number of doctoral projects with colleagues from various departments. As head of sports at ISSUL, I am responsible for hiring dozens of staff every semester to provide practical training for future masters;As a physical education trainer for the whole of French-speaking Switzerland, I am in daily contact with issues relating to HR and the terms and conditions of employment for UNIL staff. As a result, I would like to be able to put my experience to good use for the benefit of the community as a whole, through a commitment as IC representative on the CoPers. |
I was born and raised in Poland, where I obtained a Master's degree in Sociology from the University of Gdansk. In Switzerland, I studied at the School of French Language and Civilisation at the University of Geneva. I also trained with Romandie Formation and obtained a diploma in Personnel Management Assistant in 2020. I have been working at UNIL since 2014, when I was hired as the Welcome Centre coordinator and played a major role in its creation. My job at the Welcome Centre involves welcoming visiting researchers and staff from abroad and helping them settle in Switzerland. I am also in charge of the Couples and Dual Careers programme, which involves meeting the spouses of UNIL employees to help them find jobs in Switzerland. I am frequently in contact with international researchers, as well as with our partners at UNIL and external partners (such as the CVCI, IDCN, property management companies, etc.). We also work in a network with other Swiss university colleges as part of the EURAXESS European network. I am the mother of two children and work part-time. I am sensitive to issues of equality and take part in meetings of the UNIL Equality Commission. I would like to put myself at the service of the members of staff at UNIL today in order to put forward my ideas on how to improve the working conditions of young parents. |
I have around twenty years' administrative experience, including fourteen years in social work, and have been working in the health sector for the last thirteen years. In January 2018, I joined the Morphology Platform at UNIL, to take up the post of human preceptor, which has enabled me to gain more in-depth knowledge of anatomy thanks to the donors of bodies for science, and to enrich myself personally and professionally thanks to many other aspects of the job. I'm rather inquisitive by nature and I like to discover new things, I'm easy to get on with my colleagues, I'd like the world of work to be fair and supportive for my colleagues and myself. Elected to the CoPers since December 2018 until décembre 2021, I wish to renew my candidacy for the next mandate 2022-2024 to represent the body to which I’belong. |
I have been HR-Finance Executive Secretary in the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences since 2013. I am a commercial employee, an apprentice trainer, a mum at the end of her term of office (my son is an adult and has left the nest), but also involved in community life and recently graduated from UNIL with a CAS in mental health. With a wide range of experience, including positions in the media, sport and culture, I have been able to respond to and deal with situations such as:
After reading the report on working conditions at UNIL, which is concerned by a number of issues, I would like to contribute to building a stimulating and more sustainable working environment. As a hands-on, pragmatic, solution-oriented, cost-conscious person who is open to dialogue and convinced that doing something is better than complaining, I would be delighted to take part in the development of a more stimulating and sustainable working environment. I would be delighted to take part in the development of a more stimulating and sustainable working environment. I would be happy to join the Personnel Committee to promote virtuous working relationships and their implementation at all levels of the hierarchy. Strongly attached to UNIL, its environment, but above all its people, I am keen to contribute to the development of its community from a constructive perspective. If I am elected to the UNIL staff committee, I am committed to putting people at the centre of the debate. |
The Commission is made up of 12 elected members, i.e. 4 representatives for each staff category at UNIL:
In order to ensure that the diversity of the Faculties and Services is represented, the teaching staff and the intermediate staff may not each delegate more than one member from the same Faculty.
Administrative and technical staff are represented by two members from Faculties that do not belong to the same Faculty and two members from Central Services that do not belong to the same Service.
