Workplace Assessment (WPA)

A WPA is a tool that makes it possible to work with the work environment in a preventive and systematic way by drawing on employees’ experiences and observations. The overall objective of a WPA is to contribute to creating the best possible framework for employee well-being. 


1. Prepare

Design a process for the WPA in your unit. Here you’ll find inspiration on what you need to prepare for the 2022 WPA. 

2. Collect responses

The WPA survey will take place between 28 February and 11 March 2022. Get tips on improving the response rate in your unit. 

3. Use the results

Use the results to work with your team’s physical and psychological work environment in a preventive and strategic way. Find out how here.

4. Update in case of changes

When working conditions that impact the work environment change, you must update your WPA. Find out how here.


Access the WPA portal

Here you'll find reports, action plans and interim measurements.

Contact apv@au.dk if you are new at AU and have problems accessing the portal.

On 28 February, you’ll receive a personalised link to the questionnaire by email. You can participate in the survey in the period 28 February - 11 March 2022. 

Anonymity and confidentiality

The psychological part of the WPA is 100 per cent anonymous. Anonymity is ensured by means of anonymity limits, meaning that results will only be included in the report if a certain number of employees have answered the question. No one at AU has access to individual responses to the psychological WPA. 

Aarhus University has set the following anonymity limits: Ten responses for general questions, 40 responses to questions about offensive behaviour and discrimination. Read more about anonymity. 

The physical part of the WPA is not anonymous, and your occupational health and safety group will be able to access your comments on specific problems with the physical work environment (drafts, noise, etc.) in order to follow up on and address them.
