The office situation at K2 is a challenge. A large and pleasing increase in BOA activity has contributed to an increased demand for office space. The administration is going to take another round in K2 areas in the lab building to see if it is possible to exploit the areas better and make sure that people do not hold places they are not supposed to. In the allocation of seats, we will follow the already decided ranking for allocation of office spaces: Professor, Associate Professor, researcher, postdoc, PhD student, research line student, master’s student. In addition, we will strive to have people sit near their labs and close to their partners. It is possible that we also need to utilize some lab areas as office spaces.
Finally, it is important that people report their needs for office space to Irene: Irene.Hjelmaas@uib.no
It is in everyone’s interest that these rules are followed. If we all show agility this can easily go well!

All permanent employees in main position shall anually be offered an appraisal interview. As department head, I have interviews with research group leaders, heads of platforms and permanent academic staff in main positions. Research group leaders must ensure that appraisal interviews are offered to other employees in the research group, including technicians. The head of administration will offer appraisal interviews to the administrative staff.
The appraisal interview is voluntary for the employee. The conversation will be confidential and address expectations both ways, as well as efforts and results. It should be very concrete, as that makes it easier to assess the impact of it. An important point is that both parties in advance think about what should be addressed.
The purpose of the interview is to help create a better working environment, at the same time as we improve, both as individuals and organization. Medical university work is carried out in a tight relationship. This makes the appraisal inerview particularly important.

The Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry will start using a digital report system for HSE non-conformities on the 10th of November 2015.
The university wants all HSE non-conformities to be reported, in order to prevent and follow up injuries to people and harm to the environment and property. Knowledge about HSE non-conformities provides a basis for ensuring a fully satisfactory learning and working environment.
Employees and students who discover HSE non-conformities must fill out an electronic notification. The system is user-friendly and employees should be able to use the new system without training.
