Instructions for Employees in Connection with the Acute Outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)
Dear Colleagues,
The 2020/21 winter semester will be a tough nut to crack!
With a rise in infection rates and more and more confirmed Covid-19 cases around us - with implications on teaching, research and our daily lives - we are all facing difficult times. Maintaining a high quality of teaching and research despite limited resources and spatial restrictions will be anything but easy.
We can crack this tough nut together - teaching staff, university staff and students - so let's do it!
We are using e-guest to track contact data in university facilities (www.e-guest.de). Get the latest updates from our crisis management team here: www.hs-geisenheim.de/corona
Best regards,
Hans R. Schultz - President -
Corona Pandemic Update
Coronavirus Update: New Service Instructions by the Federal State of Hesse
The Federal State of Hesse has issued mandatory instructions for all departments (see reporting requirements, etc.). In addition, there are official instructions for employees who, for instance, have vulnerable family members. The Federal State of Hesse's pandemic plan is applicable. Employees of Hochschule Geisenheim University are obliged to implement or comply with these instructions with immediate effect.
The university is committed to recording suspected cases of Corona at an early stage so that protective measures can be taken as quickly as possible. Employees, students and guests are requested to immediately report a confirmed Corona infection or a quarantine requirement to the Occupational Safety and Healthcare Management Department by sending an e-mail to corona@hs-gm.de or by calling +49 6722 502 285 or 0170 2857749, if there was any personal contact at the university within a period of five days before the first symptoms appeared.
If there is a confirmed Corona infection and the person was at work in the five days before the first symptoms appeared, the workplace should not be used for a period of at least 36 hours, after which contact surfaces should be cleaned with standard household cleaning agents. Cleaning of contact surfaces after a Corona infection can be requested from the Infrastructure Department (haustechnik(at)hs-gm.de).
In general, the infection rate of Corona viruses on inanimate, dry surfaces decreases rapidly at room temperature or higher temperatures. According to current knowledge, shared files and papers do not pose a risk of infection if the contamination occurred more than 24 hours ago.
Regardless of the regular cleaning of surfaces, it is important to wash your hands regularly (20 seconds with soap) and to avoid touching your own face.
Immediately inform your Head of Department / Manager / lecturer of all the facts:
Quarantine requirements from the Health Authority / due to travel regulations
Contact with an infected person
Suspicion of COVID-19 infection
positive Corona test
Then immediately notify corona(at)hs-gm.de and +49 6722 502 285 or 01702857749. The neccessary steps will then be undertaken.
In case of a positive corona test or suspected COVID-19 infection, a list of people must be compiled with whom there has been direct contact at the workplace within the last five days (Contact Category I: face-to-face, i.e. any contact that lasted longer than 15 min and with a distance of <1.5 m without wearing a mask). These people must be informed and leave the workplace immediately and quarantine until contacted by the health authorities, who will usually impose an official quarantine, or until a negative test result is obtained. All further decisions are made by the health authorities.
If you are not contacted by the health authorities, please contact corona(at)hs-gm.de after 3 days at the latest to discuss further action. Superiors are obliged to ensure that all colleagues employed on site can be reached by telephone at all times. This private data should not be available to third parties.
You have had a confirmed or suspected stage 2 contact with a person who is ill with COVID-19 (Contact Category II, i.e. direct contact with a distance of less than 1.5 m but while wearing a mask or a contact that lasted less than 15 min)? You have had no direct contact but had contact to a direct contact person?Please describe the situation in writing (corona(at)hs-gm.de) or by phone +49 6722 502 285 immediately, so that further measures, e.g. home office can be discussed.
obligation to undergo COVID testing when entering the country
designation of risk areas/high-risk areas
digital registration on entry
exemptions for vaccinated travellers
Before arrival, please read the latest information on the current classification of the area from which you enter. The latest classification is available on the webpage of the Robert Koch Institute (RKI)
Please note that your vaccination certificate will only be accepted if you have been fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved in the EU. The officially approved vaccines are listed on the Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI) website.
It is expected that no trips to countries outside Germany will be undertaken if the Federal Government has classified the country as a high-risk area and it is not urgently necessary.
Employees returning to Germany from a high-risk country must inform Human Resources without request by sending an e-mail to corona(at)hs-gm.de .
In addition, please refer to the Regulation to Control the Corona Virus, dated March 13, 2020, in its applicable version. For persons with a confirmed Corona infection and contact persons of category I with close contact ("higher" risk of infection) according to the RKI definition, the obligation to be physically present is lifted for 14 days, provided that public health authorities do not impose self-isolation. During that time, employees will work from home, if possible, using their office laptops. Affected employees must inform their departments without delay if home quarantine has been imposed.
If an infection is confirmed by a positive test result, the doctor reports the result to the public health authorities. People with suspected COVID-19 infection or a confirmed positive Corona test must stay away from the university/work place.
The public health authorities will then contact the person concerned and, if necessary, the university in order to determine further contact people. The following protocol is used:
For contact people in Category 1 (high risk of infection: e.g. direct conversation or living together) the public health authorites usually order a home quarantine.
For contact people in Category 2 (low risk of infection: e.g. people who spent time in the same room such as seminar rooms, lecture halls, etc., special measures are not usually applied. The contact person must, however, inform HGU via corona(at)hs-gm.de immediately in order to discuss further measures (see also FAQ: Notification Procedure fur Suspected Infections / Definition of Contact Categories)
Contact people in Category II or other contact people (contact to an infected person with a distance of more than 1.5 m or spending time in the same room) do not belong to the closer circle of contact people. Therefore, no quarantine regulations apply to them. As an additional preventive measure for contact persons in Category II, we refer to the possibility of working from home. Nevertheless, there are some information to be observed for 14 days after an infection has occured:
Continuously watch for symptoms during that period
If you should develop symptoms of respiratory diseases, such as cough, fever, chills or an inhibited sense of taste and smell, please call your general practitioner, ask for a sick note and then contact the public health authorites
Wash your hands regularly, observe the cough and sneeze etiquette and always wear a mouth and nose covering in places where it is not possible to keep your distance
Please reduce your social contacts to people belonging to a risk group as much as possible during that period (elderly people, people with a weakened immune system or a chronical illness)
Participant lists must always be kept and saved in case of enquiries from the public health authorities for contact person tracking (either via e-guest or with paper forms)
On campus, the so-called 3G rule applies, which means that students must be vaccinated, recovered or tested. They are required to carry one of the following documents if they enter a campus building or facility:
Digital proof of vaccination or vaccination certificate confirming that the person is fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved in the EU (BioNTech, Moderna, AstraZeneca and Johnson& Johnson) and that at least 14 days have passed since the final dose
Digital or written proof that the person has recovered from COVID 19 no longer than 6 month ago.
Negative test result (PCR or antigen test), carried out by an authorized test center. Antigen tests are valid for 24 hours, PCR tests are valid for 48 hours. Approved tests are carried out by doctors, pharmacies or test centers: https://www.corona-test-hessen.de/
Important information: Free government-paid COVID testing will end on October 10, 2021. Until December 31, 2021, however, everyone who is underage at the time of the test can be tested free of charge. The same applies to pregnant women and students from abroad who are staying in Germany to study and who have been vaccinated with vaccines not recognized in Germany.
Proof of your COVID status must be carried at all times when entering a building or campus facility, and has to be presented to staff members, teachers or security staff upon request. If students cannot present the required proof, they will be expelled from the university premises immediately. The university also reserves the right to take further steps.
1. In teaching areas on the campus, contact data will be collected in classes, exams, and other study-related events such as admissions events as well as when using work stations in libraries, or using practical, PC and learning rooms. At events over several days, contact details will be collected each day. Details will also be collected in dining facilities and other facilities with visitors, with the exception being for takeaway food and beverages. Participation in the collection of contact data is obligatory and a prerequisite for participation in classroom events and the use of the above-mentioned facilities. The name, address and telephone number of the participants as well as the title of the event will be recorded for the sole purpose of enabling the tracking of infections. The contact data is recorded using an electronic system (www.luca-app.de/) or form. For data protection reasons, one form per person must be filled out and submitted to the organizer. The contact data collection forms will be kept by the organizer until the deadline expires. The data is to be kept for the duration of one month from the beginning of the event, protected from third-party access by the responsible health or public order office, and is to be transmitted to them on request or deleted or destroyed securely and in accordance with data protection regulations immediately after the deadline has expired.
Students: If you do not have a smartphone or have forgotten it and you can therefore not use the luca app, your fellow students can also submit your contact data (as a guest entry). In addition, it is also possible to submit contact data in paper form. Contact forms are available in all teaching rooms.
Lecturers: Please do not forget to register yourself. The forms available in the lecture halls and seminar rooms are to be handed out to students who were unable to register by smartphone. After the end of the event, the forms are to be collected in DIN A5 envelopes (with the date, place and name of the event written on it), which are also available in the room, and sent by in-house mail to P3 - Event Management; in addition, marked mailboxes will be hung up on campus. Any questions regarding QR codes and paper forms should be directed to veranstaltungen(at)hs-gm.de or the Info Point (tel. -100)
Guests and External Visitors: For persons who do not have a smartphone or have forgotten it, contact data can also be collected online by other guests (guest list) or by using paper forms. Contact forms are provided in all lecture halls and seminar rooms.
2. At internal staff meetings, minutes should be taken and kept for four weeks, in which the participants are recorded, with online participation identified. External participants are to be recorded with first name, surname and telephone number. Minutes are to be stored for a period of 4 weeks.
In buildings and also on campus, it is important to ensure that people have as little direct contact with each other as possible or that their contact is reduced to a minimum. Contact in rooms of the university, during breaks or other activities is to be kept to a minimum. Physical contact, such as shaking hands is to be avoided.
In the case of unavoidable direct contact, additional protection must be ensured! At consultation and information areas with personal contact, where the safety distance of at least 1.5 meters cannot be maintained, protective screens are provided. Where such screens are not available and the minimum distance cannot be maintained, mouth-nose coverings must be worn.
At all times a minimum distance of at least 1.5 meters ("safety distance") must be maintained from other people in all directions, including on entry, when sitting and moving about. Where this is not possible, alternative protective measures (e.g. mouth-nose coverings) must be observed. The safety distance must be maintained in all university owned and rented buildings, parts of buildings and on the entire campus of Hochschule Geisenheim University! Measures such as barriers, markings or access regulations are to ensure that the distance is maintained. All members of the university, users and guests are obligated to observe the measures for maintaining the safety distance. The safety distance must also be maintained when entering and leaving buildings and rooms and in queues. Group formations in buildings and on the premises are to be avoided.
Covering your mouth and nose is mandatory in all buildings of Hochschule Geisenheim University (also in all 'traffic' areas and in lecture halls). Traffic areas include corridors, entrance areas, stairs and elevators. Wearing a face mask is not required at the workplace if the room is used by only one person, or if the minimum distance of 1.5 m can be kept at all times. If distance requirements (1.5 meters) cannot be observed during joint work sessions or business travelling, wearing a FFP2 face mask or surgical mask is mandatory. In general, these items are intended for single use, but can also be re-used after drying. This regulation applies to all areas and activities at the university, in buildings, outdoors and in vehicles. The use of plastic face protection shields without wearing a mouth and nose covering is not permitted inside campus buildings
It is recommended, if possible, to take a break from wearing a mouth and nose covering or surgical mask after 3 hours (75 minutes in case of FFP2 masks), ideally for a period of at least 30 minutes.
The three main measures (AHA rules) to reduce the risk of infection must be observed: Keep your distance, observe hygiene, wear a face mask.
In particular, regular and thorough hand washing with soap and water for 20 seconds before and after class is recommended.
In addition, hand sanitizers have been installed at many building entrances.
Important exception: If all team members are fully vaccinated, they do not have to keep a distance or wear face masks when they hold meetings, share an office, etc.
In order to protect against infection, interiors should be supplied with as much fresh air as possible. This is one of the most effective methods of removing potentially viral aerosols from indoor spaces.
Fresh air ventilation
The simplest form of ventilation is window ventilation. Impact ventilation, where windows are opened fully, must take place before or at the beginning of the event and then at regular intervals. A ventilation period of 3 to 10 minutes is recommended. Even more effective (if possible) is cross-ventilation via opposite windows.
The time interval for ventilation depends on the size of the room, the number of people, activities (normal speaking or e.g. choir singing) and the available window area. The SARS-CoV-2 occupational safety rule of the BMAS recommends ventilation after 60 minutes for offices and after 20 minutes for meeting rooms.
The Commission for Indoor Air Hygiene at the Federal Environment Agency has recommendations for schools that applies equally to seminar rooms at universities: For room sizes of approx. 60-75 m³ and a number of pupils of usually 20-30 children per class, intensive ventilation is to be provided in every (!) break in class with the windows wide open. In the case of teaching units of more than 45 minutes duration, i.e. also in double lessons or if only a short break (5 minutes) is planned between teaching units, this should also be done during the lessons. (...) If, during the lessons, individual students experience symptoms of illness such as repeated sneezing or coughing, the windows should be opened immediately (shock ventilation as described above). This also applies at home or in the office.
Ventilation systems (RLT systems)
HGU teaching rooms which have an air conditioning system are to be operated with a very high outside air volume flow in the winter semester.
In a statement, the indoor climate department of the German statutory accident insurance (DGUV) states: In technical ventilation, filtered fresh air is continuously fed from the outside into the interior rooms via central or decentralized ventilation systems (RLT systems). (...) In contrast to fresh air ventilation, ventilation systems, when correctly adjusted, guarantee a continuous and sufficient air exchange regardless of the external weather conditions. The risk of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 via properly maintained HVAC systems can be classified as low. For this reason, air handling systems should not be switched off, but on the contrary, the supply of fresh air via the air handling system should be increased and recirculation should be avoided or reduced as far as possible. Only a sufficient supply of fresh air contributes to a reduction of a virus-contaminated aerosol concentration.
In rooms with recirculating air coolers it is important to ventilate using the windows.
Mobile air circulation units
According to the Indoor Air Hygiene Commission (IRK) at the Federal Environment Agency, the most effective method of removing virus-containing aerosols from indoor spaces is to provide as much fresh air as possible. Mobile air filter units based on circulating air do not allow fresh air to enter the rooms. In the opinion of the IRK, the use of such air purifiers with integrated HEPA filters in rooms is not sufficient to effectively remove suspended particles (e.g. viruses) by filtering the indoor air over the entire period of use. The use of such devices cannot replace ventilation.
The Indoor Air Hygiene Commission (IRK) also describes which requirements must be checked in advance for the operation of such devices: This would require an exact recording of the airflow in the room as well as a specific placement of the mobile devices. The height of the air flow rate would also have to be adapted exactly to the local conditions and room occupancy. The use of such devices can therefore not replace ventilation measures. Treatment of air pollutants with ozone or UV light is rejected by the IDE for both health and safety reasons.

We are using the Luca app for digital contact records!
The Luca app is a comprehensive solution for digital contact tracing. In addition to testing and vaccinations, it helps to combat the spread of the corona virus as it identifies contacts with infected persons in line with data protection regulations and helps to break the chain of infections.
Please use the Luca app or the provided forms when you are on campus.
The instructions for handling the coronavirus in the business area of the HMWK must be observed. Hochschule Geisenheim University's agreement on "mobile work" remains unaffected and continues to apply until further notice.
According to updated information from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the large number of potentially predisposing medical conditions and their degree of severity (e.g. existing organ damages) as well as many other influencing factors (e.g. age, sexe, weight, certain behaviors, adequate medical treatment) demonstrate the complexity of risk assessment. Therefore, it is not possible to make a general classification of a risk group. On the contrary, a medical practitioner needs to make a personal risk assessment.
A doctor's certificate must be provided in order to lift your obligation to be present at the workplace if you belong to a risk group. The doctor's certificate must confirm that, according to RKI criteria, you are more likely to suffer from a severe COVID-19 infection. It has to be presented to your superior for information purposes. The original must be sent to HR & HR Development.
Your superior is not authorized to make a copy of the certificate. After the end of the pandemic, HR will destroy all doctor's certificates immediately and in compliance with data protection laws.
If work at home with a mobile office PC is possible, mobile work can be authorized. Agreements on mobile work continue to apply.
If work at home is not possible, work must be organized at your workplace in compliance with hygiene and safety standards (maintaining a distance of at least 1.5 metres, if necessary, working when fewer people are around, or assignment to a different task).
If neither working from home nor working at your workplace is possible, plus hours in the flexitime account or other overtime hours need to be used.
If all of the above possibilities are exhausted or are not possible after consultation with superiors, paid leave of absence from work can be considered. In these cases, please contact HR & HR Development.
If the nursery, child care facility or school is closed due to infection prevention measures, employees with children under 12 years of age can be allowed to work at home for home care reasons. The home office agreements already made continue to apply.
In exceptional cases, leave of absence from work or service with continued payment of remuneration may be granted for periods outside school holidays or closing times if
the shared childcare facility or school is partially or completely closed or in restricted regular operation
the children have not yet reached the age of 12 or are in need of help due to a physical, mental or psychological impairment
work at home, if necessary with reduced working hours, is not possible
plus hours on the flexitime account as well as overtime hours have already been used
holiday for 2020 has already been used up
alternative childcare options (e.g. emergency childcare, other parent, family care group) are not available on an hourly basis. a
The same applies to the care of a close relative in need of care if the day care facility closes due to infection prevention measures or admission is not possible.
If all of the above possibilities are exhausted or are not possible after consultation with superiors, paid leave of absence from work may be considered. In that case, please contact HR & HR Development.
Employees can work from home, if the following criteria are met:
The tasks must be suitable for being carried out at home.
The main part of the work is carried out at the workplace.
Service operations can be maintained.
Data protection and data security is guaranteed.
Any overload is avoided.
Participation is voluntary.
No overtime hours can be accumulated.
Respective superiors are responsible for proper operation.
The instructions for handling the coronavirus in the area of responsibility of the Hessian Ministry of Higher Education, Research, Science and the Arts (Dienstanweisung zum Umgang mit dem Corona-Virus im Geschäftsbereich des HMWK), dated February 16, 2021, remain unaffected.
In addition, we would like to give you additional information on the Covid-19 vaccination program (according to the federal government, vaccinations for risks groups will start in spring 2021. Vaccinations for adults who do not belong to a risk group are supposed to start in summer 2021)
Information on Covid-19 vaccinations in German (for information purposes only, HGU does not organize a vaccination program for our university):
Information sheet mRNA vaccines (BioNTech, Moderna) and vektor vaccines (z.B. Astra-Zeneca)
On days on which employees work from home all day, they contact the HR Department to report their actual working hours. No overtime hours may be accumulated on days on which employees work from home. Exceptions can only be made in individual cases.
On days on which employees work partly at Hochschule Geisenheim University and partly at home, they book their arrival and departure time at the time recording device. For reporting their actual working hours for mobile work, they contact the HR Department. No overtime hours may be accumulated on days on which employees work from home. Exceptions can only be made in individual cases.
On days on which employees work at Hochschule Geisenheim University all day, they book their arrival and departure times at the time recording device. On these days, flextime plus hours and minus hours are recorded as usual and can be used in accordance with the flextime employment agreement
Travel time between the office and the mobile workplace does not count as working time
For further information, please go to the management portal of Hochschule Geisenheim University
In general, overtime / plus hours during mobile work outside the campus are not possible. Exceptions can only be made in individual cases if the current pandemic-related workload requires extra working hours.
Official meetings and committee meetings may take place in compliance with enhanced hygiene standards. However, meetings should be reduced to a minimum. Please observe the regulations provided by the SARS-CoV-2 Occupational Health and Safety Ordinance, which stipulates that if several people are in the same room at the same time, each person must have a minimum of 10 square meters, if it is compatible with the assigned tasks. If necessary, the Department of Occupational Safety and Healthcare Management provides surgical face masks or FFP2 masks.
How can I protect myself and others during meetings?
The Federal Center for Health Education has summarized the most important hygiene information in this diagram (in German)
Consider if the meeting can be postponed or replaced by a conference call
Reduce the number of participants to the required employees/participants
Limit topics and schedule to what is absolutely essential
Wear a mouth and nose covering
If possible, arrange the seats in the room to allow a safety distance (1 - 2 m is recommended)
Do not shake hands
Everyone should wash their hands thoroughly before the meeting begins. The room should be aired thoroughly before the meeting starts.
Air the room regularly during the meeting
Participants with cold symptoms should not take part in the meeting
Participants or people returning from high-risk areas should not take part or they may participate via conference call
Observe coughing and sneezing hygiene. Do not cough or sneeze into your hand but in the crook of your arm or, preferably, leave the meeting room for a short period of time.
Always take your used tissues with you and dispose of them in a closed bin.
Keep your distance in personal discussions. A 15-minute lively conversation between two people in a room without any safety distance is considered enough for a transmission of the corona virus.
For possible inquiries, make a list of all participants with names and contact details (phone number, e-mail) and keep it in a safe place
As a general rule, any approved recovery holiday cannot be reclaimed because of the Corona pandemic or holiday trips being cancelled as a result.
As usual, already approved recovery holiday can only be reclaimed in justified individual cases with the consent of your superior. This can be the case if, for urgent operational reasons, the employee is considered indispensable for maintaining services and operations despite of a planned holiday.
Please note that any remaining days of vacation from 2020 will expire if they are not used up until September 30, 2021 at the latest.
Employees who could not use their days of vacation from 2020 until September 30, 2021 due to operational reasons with regard to the Corona pandemic, may submit a request for deferring the expiry date. In that case, any remaining days of vacation from 2020 have to be used until March 31, 2022. For that, the employee needs to submit a request to HR as well as a written statement by the superior.
Further training should take place digitally (webinars) if possible. In case digital alternatives are not possible, urgently required trainings may take place face-to-face in compliance with applicable hygiene and distance regulations.
Participating in external trainings is possible if hygiene and safety standards are adhered to. Regulations for business trips must be followed.
Superiors and the business travellers have to carefully evaluate if the business trip is absolutely necessary.
Alternatives such as video conferencing or conference calls are to be prioritized.
If a business trip is indispensable, employees should use an official or private car, if possible, and they may not carry any passengers. Public transport should be avoided where possible.
In terms of travel expenses it can be assumed that valid reasons exist for travelling in your own car pursuant to Section 6 (1) of the Travel Expenses Act of the State of Hesse and a mileage allowance reimbursement amounting to EUR 0.35 can be granted.
Selection interviews may take place in the usual face-to-face setting again if hygiene standards, as outlined in the Instructions for Handling the Corona Virus, are adhered to. This also applies to interviews as part of appointment procedures.
Interviews may also take place in a digital form. For important information on digital interviews, please get in touch with the responsible departments beforehand.
