  1. General principles

TU Kampen follows the guidelines set by OCW / VSNU on the basis of government policy. On May 20th, a new guideline was adopted with regard to the educational activities that may be offered on location. We also outline some expectations for the longer term. For the expected restart of activities on location, preparations have been made in the buildings, in terms of the organization of education and working in the TU. The following principles apply for this:

  2. Use paper towels and handkerchiefs.
  • Work / study at home if possible. Only come to university if necessary and do not stay longer than necessary.
  • In all cases, keep at least a meter and a half of distance.
  • We are jointly responsible for keeping to the agreements so that physical education is possible again; where necessary, talk to each other about behavior. The rules are enforced. People who break the rules are denied access to the buildings.

  1. General organizational measures

 

Use of buildings and spaces

Broederweg 15-19

  • In the entire building (where possible), one-way traffic applies because the corridors and the stairwell do not allow for two-way traffic. The walking direction is indicated with arrows and signs.
  • Only the main entrance to the university is used as an entrance. All other entrance doors are exits. The routes and exits are indicated in the buildings and premises. Four routes are possible from the main entrance::
  • Keep left to go to the coffee / recreation room, or to the Senate Chamber. You leave these rooms via the exit at the Senate Chamber;
  • Straight on to go to the aula or room 5. You leave the auditorium (aula) via the emergency exit at the rear. You leave room 5 through the side door.
  • Turn right to go to the toilets.
  • Up the stairs to go to the offices and premises in Broederweg 15 or 19. You leave Broederweg 15 via the stairwell in Broederweg 19, through the exit at room 8. You leave the rooms in Broederweg 15 via the emergency exit that is present in each room, via the fire escape.
  • Stairwells:

Broederweg 19: Only the top stairs to the AIO attic are used in two directions by those who work there.

Inside Broederweg 15, the stairs are only used in two directions by the employees who have offices on the first or second floor. Since the stairs can only be used by 1 person at a time, mirrors hang to check whether oncoming traffic is approaching. In all other cases and for all other persons, only one-way traffic is permitted according to the indicated routes.

  • The maximum number of persons allowed per room is indicated in each room. ruimte is het maximum aantal personen aangegeven dat in de ruimte is toegestaan. This maximum also applies to short-term consultations.
  • The rule for offices is that there is a maximum of 1 employee per office. Arrange by mutual agreement who works at the office on which day and who works at home. If it is necessary that people who normally work in the same office also work at the same time at the TU, then consult Hans van Gelder whether an alternative workplace is available on those working days.
  • At various offices it has been indicated that a maximum of 2 persons are allowed. This still means that there is a maximum of 1 employee, but that there is room for consultation with a second person.
  • Offices where it is allowed to work with 2 people, will be communicated to employees individually.
  • The reading room (room 1) can be used by a maximum of 8 people. Use is only possible after reservation (see below for instruction). Studying in the corridors / alternative seating in the buildings is not permitted.
  • There are no coat hooks available. Take your jacket to the office/lecture.

Break, coffee and eating room

  • The eating room can accommodate a very limited number of people. This means that breaks and coffee drinks will have to take place mostly outside and at the office / in the lecture hall. Also take the meter and a half into account. Avoid grouping.
  • To avoid congestion and heavy traffic in the hallways: leave the room after coffee / tea and return to your workplace.

Bicycle shed Broederweg

  • The bicycle shed can be used to store bicycles. Then enter the building through the main entrance.
  • The table tennis table must not be used.
