Hochschule Niederrhein. Your way.

Services of the Support Office Occupational Health and Safet

The Support Office for Occupational Health and Safety supports the members of the HSNR in the implementation of the statutory compulsory requirements.

To this end, the Support Office operates an occupational health and safety and environmental protection management system (AGUM), which highlights all occupational health and safety issues.

Furthermore, the Support Office offers regular training and courses, often also with external training partners, e.g. for first aid in the company.

The basic instruction (e-learning) on the topics of occupational safety and fire protection can be found in Moodle. Please submit the certificate of instruction to your supervisor and repeat it after one year.

Occupational, Health and Environmental Management "AGUM"

AGUM stands here for Occupational, Health and Environmental Management and represents a process-oriented management system. It supports the members of the HSNR in fulfilling their rights and compulsories in occupational health and safety and describes the relevant processes and interrelationships.

The system is located on the server of the AGUM association. The access identification is done via the IP addresses of the HSNR. Access from outside is only possible via VPN.
