Informationsmøde

Der afholdes informationsmøde onsdag den 23. september kl. 13 i Fysisk Auditorium, hvor institutlederen vil fortælle om ’rigets tilstand’.

 

 

Fysisk APV
Nu er det igen tid til Fysisk Arbejdspladsvurdering (Fysisk APV). Alle medarbejdere opfordres til at besvare det elektroniske spørgeskema, der sendes pr. e-mail i midten af september 2015.

Formålet med at gennemføre en APV er at sikre, at vi får set på alle væsentlige forhold i vores arbejdsmiljø. APV er en vurdering af arbejdspladsens arbejdsmiljøforhold, hvor arbejdsmiljøet bliver kortlagt og vurderet og handlingsplaner bliver udarbejdet og prioriteret. Handlingsplanerne bliver gjort tilgængelige for alle medarbejdere, og der følges op på handlingsplanerne.


Den seneste APV på Aarhus Universitet blev gennemført i 2012. APV skal gennemføres hvert tredje år og universitetets ledelse og HAMU (hovedarbejdsmiljøudvalget) har besluttet at gennemføre den fysiske APV i efteråret 2015, mens den psykiske gennemføres i første kvartal 2016. Kortlægningen af det fysiske arbejdsmiljø er ikke anonymt.


Spørgeskemaet vil blive sendt fra AU Fysisk APV med emnet: ” Fysisk Arbejdspladsvurdering. Vigtigt. – Physical Workplace Assessment. Important.”

Information meeting

An information meeting will be held on Wednesday 23 September at 13:00 in the Physics Auditorium. The Head of Department will inform about ‘the state of the empire’.

 

 

Physical Workplace Assessment (the physical WPA)
Once again, it’s time for the Physical Workplace Assessment (the Physical WPA). All employees are encouraged to complete the electronic questionnaire that will be sent by email in mid-September 2015.

 

AU performs  workplace assessments to make sure that we examine all important aspects of the university’s work environment. A WPA is an assessment of the work environment at a company or institution in which the work environment is described and assessed, and action plans are developed and prioritised. These action plans will be made available to all employees, and progress in relation to action plans will be evaluated.


The most recent WPA at Aarhus University was performed in 2012. WPAs must be performed every third year, and the senior management team and the Main Occupational Health and Safety Committee have decided to schedule the physical WPA in autumn 2015, while the psychological WPA is to be carried out in the first quarter of 2016. The questionnaires used in assessing the work environment at AU are not anonymous.

 

The questionnaire will be sent from AU Fysisk APV with the subject heading: ” Fysisk Arbejdspladsvurdering. Vigtigt. – Physical Workplace Assessment. Important.”

 

 

Visit by the rector on 8 October 2015

Brian Bech Nielsen will make his annual visits to the university’s various units, where he will meet employees to discuss the development of the university and to exchange visions and problems. There will be time for comments and asking the rector questions.

 

The visit to IFA will take place on 8 October at 11:30-13:00 in the Physics Auditorium. All employees are invited.
