Changes to access arrangements for Whiteknights House

Friday, 13 April 2018

Following a review of the security and office arrangements for Whiteknights House, we are making some changes to the access arrangements for the building.

Much of these changes do not affect access to the building during weekdays and are being made to provide a secure working environment for colleagues.

From Monday 16 April, the main entrance by the reception desk will be open to visitors between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm on weekdays. Outside of these hours, or to access one of the other entrances, staff will need to use their campus cards, which need to be enabled for this purpose.

Arrangements are being made to grant all Whiteknights House based staff 24/7 access through campus cards. Members of the Leadership Group and colleagues from Estates & Facilities and IT will be able to access the building from 7:00 am to 7:30 pm on weekdays, via their campus card.

Should a member of staff require short-term access to the building, please contact the Campus Card team. Any requests for one-off access should go to Security Services.

Anyone working in Whiteknights House outside of core working hours should let the security team know that they are in the building and sign in and out using the book at the main Whiteknights House reception.

All visitors should report to the reception as normal. The reception desk will contact the relevant member of staff to come and collect the visitor.
