New identity cards for staff
23 Apr 2012
New identity cards are being issued to all members of staff on 26 and 27 April, as part of a programme to upgrade access to University buildings.
To receive your new card, you must bring your existing card to the relevant card exchange location on Thursday 26 or Friday 27 April (see list below).
All new staff cards will be pre-printed with existing photographs before the exchange sessions and you will simply swap your old card for the new one.
Please note that you cannot exchange cards on behalf of another person.
Payroll staff will also be in attendance to give advice on using MyView, the online system that now gives you fast and secure access to your payslip and other personal information.
Your new card will give you the same access to buildings, car parks, cycle stores, etc, as your old one.
Exchanging your staff card on 26/27 April could win you £25, as all surrendered cards will go into a lottery. Five winning cards will be drawn after the card exchange sessions have closed on 27 April and the lucky winners will each receive High Street Vouchers worth £25. Old cards will be shredded (for security purposes) and then recycled.
If you are based at a remote location, including Fallowfield Campus, the Paterson Institute, John Rylands Library, Deansgate, Jodrell Bank or a hospital, or are not in work on 26 and 27 April, Human Resources will contact your local line manager about alternative arrangements for exchanging your card.
If you have any questions about exchanging your staff card, please contact your local HR team:
