Inspections by the Danish Working Environment Authority (Arbejdstilsynet)

It is in Aalborg University's interest to maintain a constructive dialogue with the Danish Working Environment Authority at all departments.

Through this dialogue, AAU's departments receive valuable input that helps ensure the ongoing working environment efforts have the right focus and lead to satisfactory results for the benefit of all AAU employees.

Therefore, inspections by the Working Environment Authority are welcome at AAU.

Good Advice

To get the most out of supervisory visits, it is important that all managers and employees understand the role and working methods of the Danish Working Environment Authority, and that they are as prepared as possible when the Authority arrives.

The Work Environment Section has prepared a guide where you can read more about the Working Environment Authority – how you can prepare for supervisory visits, and what responses you can expect from the Authority.
