We kindly ask you to deliver all completed forms at least eight weeks before the planned arrival, to allow completion of the approval procedure.
 

Please always contact your departmental host prior to any action.

 

You should ALWAYS receive an official email from Departmental administration after your Visitor status approval, confirming access to the building. If you haven't received any information, please contact the HR team.

 

If you have been approved as a visitor by our Department, please remember that the Health and Safety form needs to be completed/signed by both the sponsor/host and the visitor. The form must be taken to the Biochemistry Safety office before or on the day of arrival so that office can give you a Health and Safety induction. Please make an appointment with your supervisor and the Biochemistry Safety office in advance.

 

 No work of any kind must be carried out in the department until after the visitor has undergone H&S induction. 

 


If you are working in the Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin Building but are not employed by the Department of Biochemistry, please contact the Reception Team for Induction and SharePoint access.
