I have been adressed on my behavior

What can you do?

• Approach the conversation openly: genuinely listen to the other person.
• Understand that everyone has different personal boundaries.
• If you unintentionally crossed a boundary and regret it, sincerely apologise.
• Make agreements on how you will interact in the future.
• If you don’t recognize the situation or feel wrongly accused, seek help from a supervisor, a colleague, or contact our confidential advisors

Who can help you?

Ask someone you know and trust for help. If talking to your supervisor doesn’t feel good or doesn’t help, you can always talk to the confidential advisors at UMC Utrecht. Even if you have doubts. It can help prevent a situation from getting worse. Remember that all conversations between employees and these support services are confidential.
