They are currently in B71 if you want to take a look. There are also some lockers if you’d like them.<\/p>\n Shonah Ion<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We have a set of metal drawers that we wish to get rid of if anyone wants them. They are the old, grey type but still in good condition and have the key with them. Please contact Fiona Rambridge if you are interested: F.Rambridge@lancaster.ac.uk<\/a><\/p>\n Fiona Rambridge<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I’ve got a quite large whiteboard to get rid of as I’m moving out soon and don’t want to take it with me. Free to anyone that wants it. James Keen<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The 2017\/18 Performance Development Review (PDR) cycle is drawing to a close. All Lancaster University staff employed for more than 12 months continuously, including those on fixed-term contracts, are expected to take part in the PDR process. Staff who are on probation do not need to have a PDR but please read the section on probation below.<\/p>\n For full information on PDR policy, guidance and PDR forms please visit http:\/\/www.lancaster.ac.uk\/pdr\/<\/a> Research staff should use the Professional Services PDR form.<\/p>\n Grainne Wilkinson<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Line managers should note that if they are managing a new non-academic (i.e. admin\/ technical \/ research) member of staff then regular reviews need to take place and paperwork completed. \u00a0There are two forms to complete \u2013 an initial PDR form and a Probation Review form (the latter at four months and eight months). Please visit the \u201cManaging the Probation Period\u201d of this webpage http:\/\/www.lancaster.ac.uk\/hr\/recruitment\/inductionIndex.html<\/a>\u00a0 and scroll down to the Non Academic Staff Probation section for guidance and the forms.<\/p>\n Grainne Wilkinson<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Please could everyone ensure that they delete any room bookings that they have no longer need. Some staff are finding that they are having to book rooms in other buildings unnecessarily.<\/p>\n Grainne Wilkinson<\/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":" Flexible Benefits It\u2019s time to make the choices for flexible benefits.
