Do you have to make an appointment if you want to visit the UOC's Mexico or Colombia office?
Can I adapt or reduce the working day to care for dependant minors or disabled family members?
Can I adjust my teleworking hours that coincide with my colleagues? How?
Given the current situation and as an exceptional measure, we have extended teleworking to everyone all the time, but we wish to prioritize a period when we should coincide with our colleagues. During shorter working days this period is from 9 am to 2 pm. If your circumstances mean you can't coincide with your colleagues during the period set, you need to talk to your supervisor to find the alternative that best adapts to your tasks and personal situation.
What should I do if my doctor has prescribed medical leave because I have COVID-19 or because they want me to self-isolate?
In economic terms, medical leaves due to COVID-19-related illness or isolation are treated the same as work accidents.

Equipment loans to improve work from home
The UOC has activated a protocol for loans of computer hardware and ergonomic furniture to help staff perform their work comfortably and efficiently during this exceptional period of normalized teleworking.
People who have asked to collect loan materials or need to collect personal materials that are essential for carrying out their work (books, documents, etc.) may also visit the reception areas of Tibidabo and 22@ buildings by appointment on a specific date and at a specific time.

How does the royal decree 11/2020 affect predoctoral and postdoctoral researchers?
In its 13th additional provision and the subsequent notes, Spain's royal decree 11/2020, of 31 March, gave the option of extending employment contracts that stem from the national Science, Technology and Innovation System's funding calls by a period equal to the duration of the current state of emergency. The contracts affected by this royal decree are those that were due to end between 2 April 2020 and 1 April 2021.
Subsequently the Government of Catalonia issued a statement regarding the extension of FI (researcher training) and Beatriu de Pinós contracts, saying it would apply the same conditions as those laid out in the aforementioned royal decree's 13th additional provision.
In light of this, the UOC's Executive Board has likewise decided to extend employment contracts stemming from UOC internal calls by however long the state of emergency lasts, to the same dates as those established by the aforementioned royal decree 11/2020.
This decision represents a significant economic outlay in uncertain times, underlining the UOC's firm belief in backing talent and quality training for researchers, particularly in moments of real difficulty.
