Please remember that employees during the university's physical shutdown still have to report illness and other absences to the secretariat and immediate manager.

Special sickness benefit rules have been introduced due to Covid-19, which makes it possible to receive sickness benefit reimbursement from the first day of sickness. Therefore it is important, in connection with a sick leave, it is clarified whether this is home quarantine or absence due to presumption of Covid-19. If the absence is presumed to be due to Covid-19, then you are encouraged to disclose this.

Be especially aware that the possibility of reimbursement applies to illness/quarantine as of February 27, 2020. It may therefore be relevant to report for absence from February 27, 2020.

For good measure, I can inform you that since AU needs this information in order to obtain the sickness benefit reimbursement, it is justified to obtain this information from the employee.

As a result of the continued closure of Denmark, all field trips at Geoscience, which were to be held in April, have been canceled.

The students have been informed.

Purchases MAY NOT be delivered to employees' home addresses.

Excluded from this are purchases of "regular IT accessories", for example: headsets, webcams, mice, keyboards ...

Please note, ALL orders must go through IT support.

Home delivery can be done as follows:

In the comments section it should be noted that this is a home delivery. Here the home address must also be noted.

If you have questions, contact IT support.

The Festival of Research, which was to be held in April, will be moved to the fall.

A new date will be announced later.

All transport of chemicals / hazardous substances in connection to fieldwork and expeditions require documentation prepared by the AU security adviser. The work is time consuming, so please start well in advance.

Contact Charlotte for further info.

Information about the new holiday rules and the transition period is available under AU's staff service.

Please make sure to check your holiday registrations on a regular basis via mit.au.dk.
