Hi all,
UiB has leased berths to Boston and the boat “Ren havn”, a company that has been hired by Bergen municipality to work on the remedial work with Store Lungegårdsvannet.
The original rental period and planned work is in the period from October to spring 2024. Since they started the work this week, I have received many complaints from colleagues at BIO about both noise and exhaust. Several HSE deviations have also been logged.

Autumn is upon us and soon it will be 2024! Whether you are planning to spend the rest of your 2023 vacation days under the sun or in the snow, there is one thing you must do immediately: Register your remaining vacation days for 2023 in Selvbetjeningsportalen! It is a requirement that everyone register their vacation, and it is the general rule that all vacation days have to be taken out within the calendar year.
The old chemical inventory system (EcoOnline) has been discontinued and we have got a new system called Stoffkartotek.uib.no.
The training will be held 9th of November 09.00-11.00 on TEAMS (in English). It’s a two-hour digital course.
Another HSE non-conformity has been registered at BIO due to inadequate closure of yellow waste boxes (problematic waste). Two boxes have been placed in the waste room in T55 with gloves and other waste visibly sticking out.
This is not acceptable, even the waste operator refused to take the waste for incineration.

In week 44 from Monday 30/10, UiB in collaboration with Caverion will do a yearly inspection of the lab fume hoods in Thormøhlensgate 55. We will be joined by an technician together with Caverion, they will contact users / technicians locally and agree a time for emptying cabinets before measurement. It is important that the cupboards are cleaned and emptied before the inspection.
