Dear everyone,
I begin the editorial with two good news:
K2 has got its first merited teacher! Congratulations to Aase Raddum, who has been awarded the status of merited teacher.
Also this week, Simona Chera was awarded a NFR Fripro project for groundbreaking research, congratulations!
The year can continue like this 
Finally, I would like to remind you of the FAMU survey that has a response deadline on Sunday (April 13th). Working environment surveys are an important part of the university’s systematic work on health, safety and the environment (HSE). It is therefore important that as many people as possible respond to the survey!
It is important to clarify that the questionnaire is anonymous, the answers cannot be traced back to the individual.
This is how anonymity is safeguarded even with floor-by-floor divisions at K2:
- No managers have access to raw data
- Common template for all reports
- No personal information in the reports
- No link between reply and email address
- No reports for groups with fewer than five responses
When the survey has been completed, you will be invited to participate in the follow-up work aimed at implementing measures where needed. It is important to emphasise that the results are presented in such a way that no individual can be recognised. No managers or others at UiB will have access to the individual’s answers. The data material is incorporated into a permanent database at NTNU This makes it possible for the faculty to compare results over time (you can read about ARK here: www.ntnu.no/ark).
Have a great weekend and happy Easter!
Silke
