The purpose of the safer space rules is to help prevent and deal with inappropriate behavior such as harassment, bullying and discrimination in MOVEO sport services. By treating others with respect, we create an equal and collaborative atmosphere in higher education sports and wellbeing services. The contact persons for these issues are the harassment contact persons of the LTKY and KOE.

1) We respect other users

• We give everyone the peace to training.
• We use respectful language.
• We give everyone the opportunity to participate.
• We advise and comment on another's exercise only if asked to.
• We also act respectfully on social media. 

2) We give everyone their own space

• We do not touch without permission.
• We do not comment on others' bodies or appearance.
• We do not disturb by staring.
• We ask permission to film or record. 

3) We treat each other as equals

• We cannot make assumptions about someone's experiences, thoughts, life situation, sexuality, gender, nationality, culture, language, religion, values, health or ability based on their appearance, speech or other behavior.
• We look critically at the assumptions we make about other people and treat them only as assumptions - not facts.
  

 4) We learn from our mistakes

• We take responsibility for our mistakes by apologizing and changing our behavior. We all make mistakes sometimes and may also break the safer space rules.
• We understand that everyone is right to their own individual limits. People react differently to different behavior.  

5) We take action against inappropriate behaviour

• We take action to stop the inappropriate behavior we see by helping the person who is being affected by it.
• We can also calmly interrupt the situation by saying to the person, for example, "What you are saying/doing seems offensive." or by questioning his or her behavior, for example by asking a question: "Why are you doing that?"
• We make sure that the victim is not left alone with the situation.
• We will report the incident to staff or the harassment contact person.
• In situations where there is a risk to physical safety, we will call for further help, for example by calling 112.

6) In case you are the victim of inappropriate behaviour:

• You have the right to ask the person to stop their inappropriate behavior.  
• Leave the situation if you want to, everyone has the right to do so.
• If you are able, ask for help from other users, MOVEO staff  or university harassment contact persons.   

You are not alone - a service for athletes where you can talk anonymously about harassment, bullying, violence and other inappropriate behavior with a safe professional. For more information, visit etoleyksin.fi.
