#NeverOK anonymous reporting tool
Hate is #NeverOK and we encourage anyone who is a victim or witness of a hate crime, incident, microaggression or act of discrimination to report it.
At Keele we are committed to creating an inclusive environment, where staff and students feel safe, protected and respected.
We have created an online anonymous reporting tool for students and staff to report issues such as discrimination, hate crimes and microaggressions, either online or in person. (To report an incident of sexual violence or assault please contact the Sexual Violence Prevention and Support Team).
The report will remain anonymous unless you choose to share your contact details at the end of the form to get more support. You will then get support from either Student Services (students) or Human Resources (staff). If you do not wish to get further support and do not choose to share your contact details, your report will remain anonymous, and you will not receive any follow up emails about your report.
We are not able to take action against anyone involved if they are reported via the anonymous reporting tool. If you would like to report an issue, get support and take action please contact Student Services on student.services@keele.ac.uk or the relevant HR link contact.
The purpose of the tool is to get a better picture of incidents taking place so that we can create targeted campaigns and interventions.
The reporting tool is not for emergency situations and if you find yourself or someone else in emergency please contact the Police on 999 or Campus Safety on 01782 733999.
This tool compliments the existing mechanisms for students and staff to raise concerns and where an individual feels able, we would encourage them to speak up and use our established reporting processes. We hope by having this reporting tool, students and staff will be encourage to share their lived experiences.
All reports will be stored securely by Human Resources and Student Services. Please note that if you opt to get further support by choosing this at the end of the form, your report will not remain anonymous and will not be stored anonymously.
