Tiivistelmä
This thesis was done in cooperation with Laurea University of Applied Science international study department. The main purpose of the thesis was to develop a risk-based pre-departure preparing list for out bounding student to help them when managing safety-related issues while they are studying aboard. The needs for the tool arise from the needs and interest of the head of safety and security of Laurea to improve safety management.
In the theoretical framework of this thesis is included the basics of risk management based on ISO31000 combined with literature review partially. In the framework, there is also described the definitions of some words used in this thesis and the definitions of risk management framework and situational awareness, which are applied in the process of producing pre-departure checking list.
A short questionnaire was done to support the development of the preparing checklist with finding out what kind of opinion university student has towards to traveling safety and how well the school safety orientation is done nowadays around Finland. The questionnaire was answered by a fairly small group of students from a different background as well as different major, but even the small number of respondents gave a rough picture on how safety management is done in the University of applied science and how they feel about their safety culture.
The main focus of the thesis was to make a tool for exchange student safety management, requested by the Head of Security in Laurea University of applied science Tiina Ranta together with Head of International Affairs, Arja Majakulma. The tool is presenting a form of leaflet and tables which help the student to have a quick brainstorming during Laurea orientation week for exchange students. One main feature of the tool is that it is providing an easier and faster method for students to find out solutions according to the situation one may encounter by given information from safety checklist leaflet and glossary definition which author made.
The pre-departure checklist is given to the coordinator of international affair office of Laurea University in autumn 2017, thesis itself never received any certain confirmation by any parties thus, result from using the tool can only be seen after the implementation.
