Policy Oversight Group

The Policy Oversight Group (POG) provides strategic oversight of the University's policies on behalf of the University Executive Board (UEB). It meets termly and has authority to:

• Approve revisions to existing policy.
• Recommend approval of new policy to the UEB.

Policies are the top-level basis for internal decision-making and are binding on the University community. They reflect Warwick’s values and ensure compliance with external legislation.

The POG team can be contacted via:

policyoversightgroup@warwick.ac.uk

Policy Framework

The purpose of the Policy Framework is to provide guidance on the development, approval and publication of University policies in order to establish a consistent and transparent approach.

Staff members are encouraged to review the Framework when developing a new policy or revising an existing one.

Policy Zone

The ‘Policy Zone’ directs users to where policies are located across the University’s website.

Search by theme or consult the Policy A-Z.

Templates

A Policy Template has been developed to support the implementation of the Policy Framework, using best practice from across the University (and externally). The Policy Template should be used when developing a new policy or revising an existing one.

Template documents can be found here.
