If the office you have been allocated is in Social Studies D0.01 to E2.27 and you need access out of office hours you will need to use your university card or sign out a WBS Social Studies front door key from Scarman Road Reception. In WBS Scarman Road there is no access once through the front door out of office hours without a swipe card and during office hours it is necessary to have your swipe card with you at all times as there are internal secure areas. All WBS Staff should have their University card activated at the ISSU Help Desk (C0.13) to enable them to access the swipe card areas.

If you are planning to be in the building after 11 pm there is a register on both Business School Reception desks which should be signed to enable security staff to monitor occupation in the event of an evacuation situation. In such cases after normal office hours please phone security (22083) to let them know when you are leaving, you should also sign out in the book.

There is ongoing concern in the University regarding petty theft and you should always lock your office door and ensure that the window is closed when leaving it empty, even for a short time. Occupants of ground floor offices should close window blinds before leaving and all users of syndicate rooms, students or staff, should close any open windows when they leave.
