Human Resources
Organisational and social work environment at NEURO
The HR-unit has started a process to investigate the organisational and social work environment within the department, requested by the Head of the Department. The purpose is to create conditions for a good work environment and build a structure for the systematic work environment work.
A survey will be sent out after the summer vacations. The survey will be completely anonymous and it’s of utmost importance that everyone submits their answers.
Contact HR
Please remember to send any HR-related matters, primarily by email to hr@neuro.ki.se.
Both Felicia and Malin will be on vacation between 15–26 July. For urgent matters during this period please contact the Head of the Administration, Sigge Berglann.
Finance
Invoicing handling
We would like to emphasize that we must follow the department's delegation order and the two-hand principle applying to all departments and carefully distinguish that we have a person who handles orders of services/goods and a manager within each research group that certify each invoice. A manager must therefore only certify and not approve an invoice.
Financial closure
The financial closure is approaching and UBW/Agresso Web is closing on 3 July 2024. Hence, all supplier invoices should be approved and authorized by 2 July 2024, at the latest.
Contact Financial unit
For any finance/economy-related matters, please remember to use the email address ekonomi@neuro.ki.se.
