| CERN Ombuds |
Ideally, interpersonal issues between those working at, or on behalf of, CERN, should be resolved between the colleagues concerned. However, sometimes this dialogue is not successful or is not possible. In these cases, the services of an Ombuds may help to resolve disputes in a consensual and impartial manner, thus promoting the good functioning of the Organization.
The Ombuds’ mandate is to provide guidance with regard to the application and interpretation of the Code of Conduct and to offer confidential assistance for the informal resolution of interpersonal issues. Contact with the Ombuds is made on a voluntary basis. The Ombuds is there to listen, share and examine preoccupations or problems. Conflict resolution may only take place with the agreement of the parties involved. |

| The purpose of Cern Market is to allow the CERN population to buy and sell personal objects, anything ranging from a house to a car to a set of snow chains. |
