Innføring EcoExposure

UiB er pliktig til å føre register over ansatte og studenter som er eller kan bli eksponert for stoffer som kan gi alvorlige sykdommer over tid. UiB og K2 skal benytte EcoExposure som eksponeringsregister. Vi får besøk av Bente-Lise Lillebø fra HMS-avdelingen, som skal informere om systemet og hvordan man gir tilganger. Brukerne skal selv registrere i EcoExposure, men koordinatorer og administratorer for de forskjellige gruppene skal gi tilgang til brukere i sin gruppe. Første møte blir avholdt i slutten av mai og er for administratorer og koordinatorer. Det blir eget informasjonsmøte for alle brukere før sommeren – informasjon om møtet kommer.

Introduction EcoExposure

UoB are obliged to keep records of staff and students who are or may be exposed to substances that can cause serious illnesses over time. UoB and K2 will use EcoExposure as their exposure registry. Bente-Lise Lillebø from the HSE department will inform about the system and how to use it. Users will register exposures in EcoExposure but coordinators and administrators are to provide access to users in their group. The first meeting will be held in late May and is for administrators and coordinators. There will be separate information meetings for all users before the summer – information about the meetings are to come. Read more about EcoExposure by following this link.[:]
