Election of Work Environment Representatives at AAU
AAU’s overall work environment organization (AMO) is primarily based on a large number (around 100) of work environment groups, which together cover all employees at the university. Each group consists of 2 individuals – an appointed supervisor (AL) and an elected work environment representative (AMR).
The employees within a group’s coverage area elect their AMR. Elections for all groups are held simultaneously across all university units. The election is initiated centrally by the Work Environment Section but conducted locally within each unit.
The voting process, eligibility, election period, etc., follows the applicable regulations. After a decision by the Main Work Environment Committee (HAMiU) on September 14, 2023, the election period for AMRs is now 3 years.
