Health, wellbeing, and safety

Health and wellbeing

We look after the health and wellbeing of the entire university community. Each person at Metropolia has the right to a healthy working and studying environment, as well as the responsibility to look after their personal health and wellbeing. We foster an encouraging atmosphere that supports wellbeing. Our proactive work and assessments and follow-ups comprise, among other things, regular personnel surveys, performance reviews, physical examinations, good managerial work, recreational activities, and the work carried out by the student wellbeing services.

Physical and mental safety

Each person at Metropolia also has the right to a working and studying environment that is safe both physically and mentally. We work extensively and proactively to achieve our safety objectives. This work relies on the personal contribution of each person at Metropolia. Safety is a shared responsibility. The university’s safety management team comprised of the Management Group and the student safety group are responsible for ensuring safety at Metropolia. At Metropolia, we are all obligated to contribute to the preservation of safety through our actions, report any hazardous and threatening situations and accidents, and engage in control and rescue activities within our ability.
