The remote work guidelines outline a flexible yet community-oriented integration of on-site and remote work, applying principles of equality.
Safety training, informational sessions, and drills are organized for staff and students to create conditions for recognizing hazards and preventing accidents, while ensuring an adequate level of competence in emergency and hazardous situations.
Safety concerns us all!
The general duty to help applies to all of us. Anyone who notices or becomes aware that a fire has broken out or that an accident has occurred or is imminent and cannot immediately extinguish the fire or prevent the danger, has a duty to inform those in danger without delay, to make an emergency report and to take rescue measures to the best of their ability.
In the event of an acute and immediate danger, the call the emergency number 112 . The emergency number is the number to call the police, the first responders, the emergency services, the poison centre and any emergency assistance you may need.
In non-emergency situations, you can contact the university safety specialist.
In the event of fire, medical emergency, accident or violence, call the public emergency number 112.
