CERN's values are commitment, professionalism, creativity, diversity and integrity. Taken together they provide the basis for respect: respect for others, respect for the Organization and respect for its mission, and underpin the CERN Code of Conduct.

 

The following short videos invite you to reflect on the way one’s behaviour can affect our working environment, through a series of situations covering CERN's five values.
