Contact persons in cases of whistleblowing
When you consider blowing the whistle on cencurable conditions, it might be a good idea to consult someone you trust. We have made a list of people who can offer you advice.
Contact persons at UiO
The principal rule is to go through the official channels. If it is a case of bullying or harassment, your employer or safety representative must be contacted.

- Your safety representative (Norwegian)
- Union representatives, see under the individual unions at UiO
- Department of Personnel Support
- Occupational Health Service Unit (BHT)
