Creating A Tolerant Workplace

Rutgers University seeks to create a workplace that embraces and values the differences we all possess. We recognize that each of our employees brings something unique to Rutgers, and it is these individual talents and abilities that lead to our success in fulfilling our mission of outstanding education, research, and public service. We feel such variants add to the total experience of learning at Rutgers, and we work hard to increase such diversity on campus.

Everyone at Rutgers must share in the responsibility of creating a working environment that fosters an atmosphere of fairness, respect, and appreciation. Department chairpersons and supervisors can set the tone of business to be positive, productive, and effective. Non-supervisory employees can support these efforts by carrying this tone throughout their workday. Courtesy, respect and tolerance tell others that they, and their work, are valued. Such an atmosphere does not just happen; employees and employers create it through their interest, effort, trust, loyalty, and commitment.
