    Description

    The focus of this course is on accidents and illnesses in the workplace due to work activity. What happens when employees can no longer perform their work? How can we support the employees to find their way back into the work process? What should be considered - be it in interdisciplinary cooperation, but also in terms of economic figures? At the end of the semester we will take a detour into the prevention of accidents and illnesses at work. 

    The topic will be dealt with both theoretically and practically. The students will work out an intervention and if possible carry it out on site.

    EVALUATION

    The evaluation of the seminar takes place in two steps with the offer of a third evaluation possibility. First, the oral presentation (30 minutes) is evaluated as group work (50% of final grade). Secondly, the personal contribution of the prepared intervention is evaluated (50% of final grade). Then, there is the possibility to take a voluntary MC-exam (45 minutes duration, 15 questions) during the examination session. People who get more than 70% of the answers correct will receive a bonus.
