Health and Safety at Work Policy
At the Institute of Biology we strive to follow the latest legislation. This is done by composing rules to regulate behaviour, information on function area, emergency equipment and preparedness, and by formulating values and rules on how to treat each other. We are all responsible for creating and maintaining a great working environment.
Goals
At the Institute of Biology we want everybody to have a good working environment. Many nationalities are represented here and therefore, the knowledge on working environment and its implements must be communicated in English.
Laboratories may, despite the handling of dangerous chemicals, not be an unhealthy workplace to be in, in particular vulnerable groups, such as pregnant women, must be protected against risks.
All workplaces whether it be offices, laboratories, workshops or common area must be ergonomically good, environmentally correct, and individually arranged by its users.
Furthermore, the Institute strives to give the students a great studying environment so that they after having completed their studies, have acquired an academic and personally good “baggage”.
