In Faraday will take place week commencing 2nd July 2018 <\/strong>\u00a0from 9am daily.<\/p>\n Two Lancaster University engineers will require access to kitchens and shared bathrooms to test hot water temperatures.\u00a0 The engineers will not test every kitchen\/bathroom just a sample from different locations within the building.\u00a0 This brief survey will take approximately five minutes, and is to ensure that the hot water is maintained at the correct temperature to prevent any instances of legionella. There will be no shutdown of service.<\/p>\n Lancaster University appointed engineers will require access to bathrooms to remove shower heads for cleaning to prevent the build-up of materials and bacteria as well as to ensure their effective operation.\u00a0 This will take approximately 5 minutes per shower head.<\/p>\n If you have any queries regarding the timing of the work please contact Facilities Helpdesk as soon as possible, facilities.helpdesk@lancaster.ac.uk<\/a> 01524 593333<\/p>\n Grainne Wilkinson<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We apologise for any disruption this may cause, please let us know if it is going to cause any significant problems and we will try and rearrange it for you.<\/p>\n What work is being carried out \u2013 <\/strong>Visual Inspection of all hot and cold water tanks to check the physical condition of the tank and the quality of the stored water<\/p>\n Who is carrying out the work – <\/strong>LU Facilities Maintenance through the appointed contractors Contractor HBE Risk Management<\/p>\n When \u2013 Week commencing\u00a0\u00a0July 2nd 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n What affect will this have \u2013 <\/strong>There should be no interruption to the hot & cold water supplies within the building.<\/p>\n Please note:<\/strong> – Water can be continued to be used as normal.<\/p>\n What alternative arrangements will need to be made \u2013 <\/strong>No alternative arrangements required.<\/p>\n If you have any queries regarding the timing of the work please contact Facilities Helpdesk as soon as possible, facilities.helpdesk@lancaster.ac.uk<\/a> 01524 593333<\/p>\n Grainne Wilkinson<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fire door interface inspections will take place in Science & Technology <\/strong>\u00a0on 20th June \u00a0from 9am.<\/p>\n Every month the University is required to test the interface between the fire alarm system and door control systems in all buildings with access control and\/or automatic doors.

Remember to RSVP by 12th June to reserve your place. The workshop should be informative, count towards your career development training, and has a free lunch – including birthday cake!<\/p>\n Lancaster\u2019s Research Staff Association: From conference attendee to leader<\/strong> We welcome you to join Lancaster\u2019s Research Staff Association (RSA) for an informative workshop on developing your conference profile. Pick up tips and advice from an expert panel about how they transitioned from conference attendee to a conference leader. Whether you\u2019re planning on running your own workshop or conference soon, or are just interested in learning more about importance of making the transition to research leader \u2013 this workshop is for you! Although this workshop is aimed at researchers wanting to develop their conference profile, all researchers (new and experienced) are more than welcome to attend.<\/p>\n Following the workshop there will be ample time for networking over a free RSA BBQ lunch<\/strong> to celebrate the RSA\u2019s fourth birthday. Cake included!<\/p>\n Places are limited so to secure yours please RSVP to <\/strong>rsa@lancaster.ac.uk<\/strong><\/a> by 12th June 2018<\/strong> with your name and research group\/department.<\/p>\n We hope to see you there!<\/p>\n Lancaster\u2019s Research Staff Association Steering Group<\/strong> Nathan Case<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The next Physics Away Day will take place on Thursday 27th September in Green Lane Conference Centre. An agenda will be circulated in due course.<\/p>\n Attendance is mandatory for academic staff so please hold the date. All other staff are welcome to attend if they wish but please could anyone attending confirm your attendance to me, (with any dietary requirements), by COP 13th September.<\/p>\n Grainne Wilkinson<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Water Hygiene and Shower head cleaning In Faraday will take place week commencing 2nd July 2018 \u00a0from 9am daily.

Fire Door Interface Inspections <\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nThis work is undertaken by Honeywell Control Systems Ltd and requires the physical inspection of all doors controlled by the access control system while the fire alarm is active and the doors are locked.<\/p>\n
\nevent that the fire alarm is activated. In most cases the alarm will be silenced during the inspection, but for some older systems, where it is not possible to silence the alarm, the checks have to be conducted while the alarm is sounding. Owing for the requirement for the doors to be
\nlocked during this test some buildings, where access is required during the week, will be tested at the weekend.<\/p>\nAstrophysics Seminar<\/strong><\/h2>\n
