Safety for Data and Occupation
As a student of human medicine at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, you are required to receive instruction in occupational safety and data protection once a year. These instructions serve to sensitize you to the handling of protected and data-related (patient) data and to explain the valid occupational safety regulations to you. Proof of work and data protection is always checked in the winter semester. The confidentiality agreement only needs to be submitted once in the first semester.
Your successful participation will be recorded in the student portal (performance overview).
In the first semester, you will be instructed for the first time in occupational health and safety as part of a lecture and instructed with regard to the applicable data protection law. Proof of attendance at this compulsory course, which is anchored in the timetable, and the submission of a signed data protection commitment are admission requirements for participation in courses in the second semester. If you miss the attendance date for valid reasons, you can first submit the proof using the test for the s@w basic modules in ILIAS. For this test, you must attend the online instruction in the work and data protection portal "Students at Work" (S@W). In the second year of study, however, the classroom instruction must be made up for.
In the second year of study, all students are required to refresh the instruction content online via the work and data protection portal "Students at Work" (S@W) and then take the test in ILIAS. Participation in the online instruction and the test in ILIAS are admission requirements for participation in courses in the third year of study.
An update and consolidation of the work and data protection regulations takes place in the third year of study as part of a lecture during the first practice block week. Since the instruction in the third year of study must be proven by participation in a face-to-face event, it is not possible to provide proof by participating in the online instruction via the S@W portal.
In the fourth year of study, all medical students must provide proof of instruction in the same way as in the second year of study by participating in the online instruction in the work and data protection portal "Students at Work" (S@W) and the test in ILIAS.
Students who are in a semester off also take part in the online instruction in the work and data protection portal "Students at Work" (S@W) and complete the test in ILIAS.
All face-to-face training courses in occupational health and safety and data protection are mandatory events. The online training therefore only serves to refresh the content every year and to bridge the gap until the next face-to-face training, but must not completely replace it.
