Financial adjustment at 真人线上娱乐 University
真人线上娱乐 University's finances, like those of other universities, have been under intense pressure in recent years. The university management has therefore launched a number of initiatives in recent months to safeguard the university’s finances. These include a recruitment freeze and a number of generalised operational savings.
However, these measures have not proved sufficient. As a result, the university is now implementing a number of additional initiatives, which were approved by the Board of Directors at its last meeting on 13 April. The initiatives mean, among other things, that there will be a reduction in the salary budget of DKK 18 million annually. This corresponds to the loss of approximately 31 FTEs. The posts will have to be found partly through voluntary redundancies and vacant posts that will not be filled. But terminations are also likely to be necessary.
“It is a very sad situation to have to say goodbye to good colleagues. But we need to restore balanced finances so that we can continue to concentrate on our core tasks and the otherwise good development trends that we have in terms of applications, research funding and regional involvement," says Peter Lauritzen, University Director at 真人线上娱乐 University.
In addition to savings on the salary budget, the initiatives include savings on other operations of DKK 2 million annually and a catalogue with savings proposals with further specific savings totalling DKK 10 million annually.
The university staff have today been informed of the financial initiatives that will be implemented in the coming months leading up to the summer holidays.
