Víctor Climent has voluntarily stepped down as Vice-Rector for Labour Relations at the University of Barcelona today, Thursday 31 July.

Víctor Climent has decided to end this stage of his career for personal reasons and will now focus on teaching and research. The responsibilities of the Vice-Rector for Labour Relations will be assumed by the General Manager’s Office and several Vice-Rector’s Offices.
The rector expressed his gratitude, on behalf of himself and the entire governing team, for “the work and commitment that Dr Climent has shown over the past four years.” “His work, in direct coordination with the General Manager’s Office, has been a fundamental contribution to the progress made in stabilizing, improving conditions and modernizing the staff — milestones that were definitively consolidated with the approval, this July, of the historic agreement with the social partners on the staff modernization”, he added. Víctor Climent is leaving the Office of the Vice-Rector after the objectives set at the beginning of his term have been achieved.
For his part, Climent said that it had been an honour to be vice-rector and to serve the University during these years. “I would like to thank my colleagues on the Governing Board for their support and the pleasant atmosphere they have always created, as well as the entire UB community and, in particular, the rector for the trust and support he has shown throughout my term of office.”
