SmokingTo bring us in line with the other Housekeeping offices I would like to make a change to the smoking breaks.

The other offices allow a smoking break at 11am and 3pm, these are quick breaks used for this purpose and should only be taken in the designated smoking area of which we have two.

1.Marlborough Court on the path way2.Woodland Court the path way in between C block E/D Block next to the smoking bin

Please remember that the university is a now mostly a Non-smoking campus.

This will be reviewed at a later date and may be subject to change.


Pension

If you are not in the University Pension Scheme you would of received a letter in the last week informing you of changes.

Does any one have a questions?


Time KeepingIt is becoming far too common for people to be finishing early for lunch and/or the end of the day.You all must be signing you keys and handing your work sheets still in uniform at your finishing time please.

Also some people have been seen smoking before there lunch time if you wish to smoke before lunch then this must be done at 12.00 or 12.30 depending on your lunch timing.

Location of breaks, Breaks should be taken in the staff area provided located in Marlborough court housekeeping office or, if you prefer not to use the facilities and go somewhere else you must sign your self out and hand your keys in, signing back in and collecting keys on your return.Breaks should not be taken in cupboards, kitchens or empty bedrooms.
