The role and duties of the occupational health service are regulated by AML § 3-3 and through the main contract between UiT and BHT. The use of resources and activities are coordinated and reconciled during regular collaboration meetings between the university management and the occupational health service. Each faculty and unit on the same level enters into their own collaboration agreements with the occupational health service based on the area’s requirements for assistance from the occupational health service. The BHT submits an annual report of the HSE activities at the faculty.
The BHT has a free and independent position in working environment issues and considers privacy and confidentiality.
