As part of your corporate staff induction, we recommend you complete these few items. By understanding our emergency procedures and OS&H requirements, and also by understanding how your position fits in to our ECU community will help you to feel safe and comfortable in your new environment.
They are easy to complete and you can do this at a time that suits you.
It is important that you understand your role’s purpose and a position description will provide you with information about your key responsibilities and accountabilities. You can view your position description online at anytime. Your supervisor will also discuss with you your position’s responsibilities and accountabilities, clearly articulating their expectations of you in your position.
The ECU Code of Conduct outlines our standards for behaviour that we expect from all our staff and is based on integrity, honesty, conscientiousness, compassion, courtesy, fairness and respect.
The Principles for the Responsible Conduct of Research at ECU outline behaviour expectations specifically in relation to research activities. The conduct of research at ECU must be characterised by high ethical standards and a commitment to quality, integrity and originality of research practice, underpinned by a respect for the truth and for those involved in the research process.
Our staff are lead by our mission, vision and values which determines the Code of Conduct along with appropriate behaviour expressed by your manager. Our values are integrity, respect, personal excellence and rational inquiry. We ask that you respect these principles and adopt them in your day-to-day work.
Both the Campus Support Office and Security and Traffic Services manage ECU’s emergency procedures. It is our expectation that you become familiar with our emergency guidelines. In the event of an emergency, contact campus Security on extension 3333.

The Occupational Safety and Health (OS&H) team have developed an online OS&H induction course for all new starters.

Due to the changing nature of ECU’s profile it is important we provide accurate, up-to-date qualifications that genuinely reflect the quality and diversity of the ECU staffing profile. If you have a University qualification or equivalent you will need to provide the original Testamur to an authorised ECU staff member for verification. You are encouraged to go to Staff Kiosk to ensure that your qualifications and EEO information is accurate.
