Safe and healthy working

Your umc believes it is important that you work in a safe and healthy working environment. Unfortunately, working in a umc sometimes also entails experiencing major events. Especially in the care professions, it regularly happens that you experience events that have a major impact on your well-being. The umcs are aware of this and that is why there is a policy for preventing, limiting and dealing with major events. The risks are regularly inventoried (RI&E), there are house rules and codes of conduct. There are also various options for discussing and processing major events with each other, such as peer support and other forms of support. You will receive information and training in dealing with major events. It is important that you know how to act in the event of major events. On this website you will find what you can do yourself to prevent major events and how you can deal with them.

As an employee, you share in the responsibility for a healthy and safe working environment by striving for healthy working behaviour. You can give your manager or the occupational health and safety advisor tips on how to improve your working environment.

The collective labor agreement also offers starting points for working on work pressure in the umcs, see the Six Track Plan in Appendix M under the title 'Tackling work pressure'.
