Healthcare and family matters
We spend a large part of our daily lives at work. It is therefore important to take care of your health not only after work, but also during your working day.

Preventative occupational healthcare
Your new workplace may involve a variety of duties – for example, duties involving hazardous substances (e.g. methanol); duties involving biological agents; duties involving physical exposure (e.g. noise); and/or other duties such as VDU work, wearing respiratory equipment, or periods abroad involving challenging climate conditions and the risk of infection.
The university offers preventative occupational healthcare services. This includes medical consultations to record medical/occupational history as well as medical examinations where these are necessary to providing information or guidance and on the condition that the patient does not object. The employer will not be notified of the outcome of the check-up. Doctors are obligated to maintain medical confidentiality.
Preventative occupational healthcare services are provided free of charge and usually take place during working hours at the office of the occupational health officers.
