Violence and threats of violence

Violence and threats of violence

If urgent, always Call 112 – Rescue Services (Räddningstjänsten) via SOS Alarm Centre

Threats and acts of violence can be of a physical and mental character. The fact that a person feels threatened is enough reason for the university to treat the event very seriously.

When violence or threats happen to an individual, either student or employee, there are procedures in place and a readiness to deal with the situation at hand. If you as a student should become a victim, or learn about somebody else being a victim of violence, threats of violence or who in any other way is being threatened, you should always contact your school, for example the head of school or study counsellors, or the student union.

It is also important to always report the violence or threat to the police.
