National Day for Staff Networks

The National Day for Staff Networks on Wednesday 13 May is dedicated to celebrating and acknowledging the added value networks bring to the workplace.

The University of Huddersfield welcomes and supports the development of staff networks.  Our staff networks provide an opportunity for staff who share a protected characteristic to network, obtain peer support and share information.  They can also offer opportunities for staff to inform university policy on equality-related issues and topics.

Did you know we have 3 active staff networks here at the University?
