Students of 心糖vlog免費版在線觀看免費 are protected by the University's insurance program whilst engaged in course-related activities which are approved by the University.

General & Products Liability (Public Liability)

UWA students are protected by the University's General & Products Liability insurance for legal liability against third party claims arising from their negligent actions whilst participating in approved course-related activities (including study abroad, work experience and practicum placements), which results in third-party bodily injury or property damage.

Professional Indemnity

UWA students are protected by the University's Professional Indemnity insurance for civil liability against third party claims arising out of a breach of professional duty, which results in a loss to a third party. A breach includes any negligent act, error or omission committed or alleged to have been committed by a student whilst participating in approved course-related activities (including study abroad, work experience and practicum placements).

Medical Malpractice

Medical Malpractice insurance is applicable for UWA students undertaking placements that require clinical experience as part of their academic accreditation. This insurance provides cover for their legal liability against third party claims arising as a result of medical malpractice. All treatment given by students must be under the direct supervision or express instruction of a qualified practitioner. All applicable clinical protocols must be followed. All patients or guardians must be fully informed, and consent must be obtained before commencing any care, procedure or intervention.

Personal Accident

UWA students who are engaged in approved course-related activities (including study abroad, work experience and practicum placements) are covered under the University's Personal Accident insurance.

The insurance provides capital benefits, weekly benefits, non-Medicare medical expenses and injury assistance benefits to UWA students should they suffer an injury or death whilst acting in the capacity as a student on placement. This insurance does not replace Medicare or any Private Health, Overseas Student Health Cover or relevant Sports Association insurance in place.

General Insurers in Australia are prohibited from making payment on any expenses for which a Medicare benefit is paid or is payable including the balance of monies due or payable by a student after the deduction of any Medicare benefit or rebate from the actual expense incurred. This is commonly referred to as the 'Medicare Gap'.

The cover provided under Personal Accident insurance is limited and intended to compliment other insurances students may have in place (e.g. Private Health insurance, Overseas Student Health Cover or relevant Sports Association insurance). The University encourages all students to consider their own individual needs and circumstances in relation Private Health, Life and Income Protection insurance. It is an individual's responsibility to ensure that they have adequate insurance cover for their individual needs.

Student Placement or Work Experience

UWA students undertaking approved unpaid (i.e. not paid a salary) student placements, work experience, community placement or internships, which are an assessable component of their university course or have demonstrated relevance and benefit to their study, will be protected under the following insurances maintained by the University:

• General & Products Liability
• Professional Indemnity (where appropriate)
• Medical Malpractice (where appropriate)
• Personal Accident
• Corporate Travel (where placement involves approved overseas travel)

These insurances do not extend to cover liability for any negligent actions or omissions on the part of the Host Organisation that result in injury to, or loss or damage of personal property of a student.

In order for the University's insurer to release confirmation of cover letters which may be requested by host organisations, students will need to request from their respective Student Advising Office or Placement Coordinator.

Controlled Environments

The university sector, including UWA, has had many claims for research material stored in a controlled environment. Primarily as a result of the adverse loss experience, the coverage available for research in Controlled Environments (CEs) has become more restrictive.

Definition:

The key change involves a new section in the policy wording for Research Projects in which the term Controlled Environments is introduced. This identifies and addresses the similarities regarding the exposures within any environment that has research conducted that requires a controlling mechanism. This could be oxygenated fish tanks, freezers/fridges, insectaries, animal houses, greenhouses, rooms that must be kept a set temperature, dewars, etc. This is not an exhaustive list and if an environment requires a controlling mechanism, then it is captured by these changes.

Mitigation:

'Mitigated' is a clearly defined term in relation to Controlled Environments. A Controlled Environment is considered mitigated if it meets the following criteria:

1. Alarm System:

• An alarm detects changes in the CE (e.g., temperature, environmental conditions, power supply) and is monitored 24/7 by a back-to-base location (e.g., UWA Security, hospital security, or a third-party service provider).

• Alarm notifications include both "accurate alarm" and "unreliable alarm" (loss of active monitoring) notifications.

2. Emergency Power:

• The CE is connected to an automatic emergency generator via the building's essential services switchboard.

• For buildings on the Crawley campus without a dedicated emergency generator, power is provided within the Maximum Allowable Outage period according to the UWA high and low voltage switching program.

3. Maintenance:

• Maintenance of CEs, alarms, and automatic emergency power is performed and documented in accordance with the UWA Controlled Environment Guidelines

4. Annual Update:

• An annual update of CE details, including contents values, is undertaken.

Or

5. Insurer-Approved Variation:

• A variation of the above criteria that has been assessed and approved by the insurer and noted within the policy wording.

Where the Controlled Environment does not meet the criteria of points 1-4 or a pre-agreed variation (point 5), it will be considered non-mitigated and the cover available to it is reduced.

Policy Limits and Deductibles:

For mitigated controlled environments, the policy limit is $5m for any one event. Our retention (excess) is 20% of the value of the claim subject to a base deductible of $50,000.

For non-mitigated controlled environments, the limit has been reduced to $250,000 for individual losses with an annual aggregate of $500,000 i.e. the maximum UWA can claim in any one policy year for this type of loss is $500,000. Our retention is 50% of the loss subject to a base excess of $50,000.
