  23. Chalmers Alcohol and Drug Abuse Policy • Chalmers should be free from alcohol och drugs during working- and study hours • An individual’s alcohol consumption during leisure time should not impair safety, performance and welfare at the workplace. • Sale of alcohol (during parties) are made in for the purpose assigned locations (pubs) • For other parties, application for permission at to be made , before every party, at Chalmers. • All sale of alcohol demands permission from the authorities.

  24. Alcohol and Drug Abuse Policy This Policy applies to employees, students and contractors/consultants at Chalmers. An alcohol and drug-free workplace is a prerequisite for a good work environment. Work and study and alcohol and drugs do not go together. Chalmers cannot and will not condone employees or any other individuals working at Chalmers being under the influence of alcohol or drugs while on duty, or students during their studies at Chalmers. At official functions, corporate entertainment, staff parties, dissertations and graduation ceremonies, if alcoholic beverages are being served, non-alcoholic beverages must also be available. Alcohol should always be served with restriction. The general climate and attitude at Chalmers should promote and encourage open discussions about the approach to issues concerning alcohol and drug-related ill-health. An individual’s alcohol consumption during leisure time should not impair safety, performance and welfare at the workplace. Alcoholism is classified as a disease (WHO 1974). Non-prescription use of addictive pharmaceuticals cannot and will not be tolerated. Chalmers’ definition of drugs coincides with the definition of illegal substances as stated in 8§ in the Penal Law on Narcotics.

  25. Regulations for Teaching In a teaching situation, a teacher has the right to immediately take necessary measures to maintain order and safety or to avert danger.  Such a measure can be to dismiss one or more students from a part of the teaching session. 

  26. A student may be warned or suspended if he or she1) attempts to mislead in connection with an examination or other assessment of study performance, 2) disturbs or impedes teaching, an examination or other activity at Chalmers, 3) insults the integrity of or harasses any other student or employee at Chalmers within the framework of activities at the university, or 4) otherwise breaches the Chalmers rules or other directives to students. The Disciplinary Committee can decide on expulsion only ifit is deemed that there is a manifest risk that the student on the grounds of, for example, mental illness or alcohol/narcotics abuse may during the course of his or her studies injure himself or herself or another person or damage property of value, or if the student is guilty of serious criminal activity.
