Calling service

The exceptional conditions we are going through (working at a distance, living in a small space, social distancing, fears, loss of reference points, ....) impose themselves on us and it is legitimate to feel destabilised by such upheaval. We therefore invite you to register confidentially on the list of isolated persons so that we can call you as often as necessary, direct you if necessary, and simply listen to you: more information HERE

Sharing skills and helping each other

Everyone has skills and it feels good to share them, to feel useful, to help, to make new contacts and, who knows, maybe one day, friends, to talk about a subject you are passionate about with someone who is interested... The QWL service offers a list of people offering or looking for specific skills. Why not join (NB: you can use a nickname). More information HERE

Communiqué from the President: Management of missions in France and abroad 09/11/2020

Dear Colleagues

As mentioned above, staff who have to travel outside the university for professional reasons are invited to complete a derogatory travel certificate mentioning the following reason: "Travel between home and the place of professional activity" (reason 1). In addition to this certificate, these staff members must have the corresponding mission order signed by you.

With regard to the management of missions more generally, the current regulations do not provide for any restrictions on business travel within the metropolitan territory. The usual procedure for managing missions remains applicable.

For your information, on receipt of a mission order from the Presidency/Directorate General of Services, the opinion of the Defence Security Officer (FSD) is sought in order to ensure the technical feasibility and favourable security conditions of the trip. For any mission within the framework of research activities, the opinion of the Vice-President for Research is also sought.

In view of the current context, I invite you to make staff members requesting a mission aware of the need to check in advance the conditions of accommodation and the means of transport (outward and return) available. In the event of travel abroad, it is advisable to check the situation at the borders beforehand. The list of countries receiving French nationals is updated daily. Mrs Florence Andrzejewski, Security Advisor (FSD) and Risk Engineering, is at your disposal to study with you the technical feasibility of the travel of your staff.

I thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Yours sincerely

Philippe Ellerkamp
President of Avignon University
