FAQs

Campus Security/emergencies in progress/first aid and safety information

Haskayne School of Business is located at 215 Haskayne Place NW

For information about University of Calgary emergency management, business continuity management and emergency readiness drills, visit the University of Calgary Emergency Management website.

To be included in real-time emergency communications disseminated by Campus Security, download the UCSafety app.

In the event of emergency within Haskayne School of Business (Scurfield Hall and Mathison Hall), please listen to and follow the speaker instructions. Make your way to the nearest exit and convene in the Education Tower food court area until emergency services personnel provide the all-clear. Haskayne Emergency Wardens will be on hand to guide evacuation from the building. If you are interested in becoming a trained emergency warden, please contact hsb.facilities@ucalgary.ca.

First aid kits are available in administrative, events, and food service and preparation areas throughout Haskayne School of Business. Email hsb.facilities@ucalgary.ca for information about the cyclical kit replenishment program or to report missing kits/supplies.

Where is the nearest AED Automated External Defibrillator (AED)?

An AED is a portable device designed to be simple-to-use by untrained individuals. Once turned on, an automated voice will direct the user in clear easy to understand terms. However, the units alone cannot save a person. 9-1-1 must be called as soon as possible.

Fire Wardens

Our emergency muster point is at the food court in the EDC building. Fire Wardens: please remember to check in with your senior warden at the front of Scurfield Hall and indicate that your area is clear. You can do so by telling the senior warden "area colour & floor, CLEAR!" All other staff and faculty are required to go to the designated muster point until the "all clear" has been given by the Fire Marshall.

For information about the fire wardens in your building, fire warden manual, or to update your own fire warden information, please follow this link

If you lose your keys - don't panic. Come and visit the Operations/Facilities office and speak to the Facilities Advisor, Jane Brown.

CARD ACCESS:

Our office works to update the card access in Scurfield Hall every semester. If you are a teaching faculty in a card access space, please have HSB timetabling notify us via email (hsb.facilities@ucalgary.ca) and we can grant you card access for the semester.

If you are a student who cannot access required spaces, please contact us via email and we will request this for you.

How do I get a telephone for my office?

If a phone number has not already been assigned to your space but you see a phone in your space, dial *81 and this will give you the telephone number. Along with the telephone number, you will be given a password that was assigned to you by University Telecommunications when your phone was requested. This password is needed to access your voicemail messages. You should change the system generated password to one you will remember. To change your password, dial 403-220-8100 and follow the instructions.

For any problems, please contact hsb.facilities@ucalgary.ca.

How do I use my telephone?

Are you having troubles with figuring out how your telephone system works? You can find a chart map here. If you need to find out the phone number that belongs to your phone, press *81.

How does my voicemail work?

All Scurfield telephones use the University’s voice mail system. This service provides voice mail pickup after the third ring, pick-up with a message while on the telephone, or if away from the office for an extended time, an “extended absence” greeting can be set. You can save (archive) messages for a period of 7 to 30 days.

To access your voice mail messages from your office phone, or anywhere else, just dial *98 from your office phone or any other phone on campus. You will be prompted for your password before you can access your messages (dial “1”). If dialling from somewhere other than on-campus, dial 403-220-8100 and press the # key-the follow the prompts to key in your telephone number and password.

If you forget what services are available, dial 403- 220-8100 and follow the Help Guide.

Those persons without a Caller ID style phone can distinguish between a call coming from outside the University (1 single long ring) and those from internally (2 shorter rings). Many faculties use this to manage incoming calls, particularly during weeks of student take-home assignments, exams, etc.

Office Moves

The following guidelines provide departments with an overview of how to prepare for an office move in Scurfield Hall.  Please note:  moves less than 2 hours in duration are handled by the SCM Furnishing Team (UofC) and many HSB moves are grouped into one 2-hour time slot. Facilities, IT, and Telecom require notification of 1 month (if possible) prior to the move.

The layout of a single and double office can be viewed here.

It is critical that you are prepared:

  1. All packing must be completed 1 day prior to the move.
  2. All items to be moved must be labelled. If you have permission to move filing cabinets, they need to be locked and you will be notified if they have to be cleared. Items not labelled will not be moved.
  3. Boxes can be ordered by Area Administrators through Grand & Toy.  Facilities may have a few boxes on site.
  4. Personal items should be taken home and returned to the new office on completion of the move, i.e.: small plants, pictures, etc. Movers will not be responsible for breakage or loss of personal items.
  5. Do not move your desk without consulting with HSB Facilities as we need to ensure all office furnishings meet fire and safety code.
  6. Whiteboards and corkboards should be left on the wall, or if they are to be moved, an I-request (Work Request) should be completed. Advise HSB Operations/Facilities if you intend to do this, and we can submit this request on your behalf.
  7. Telecom will move your phone and provide a temporary password if needed. Operations/Facilities will arrange this.
  8. Do NOT paint your office or supply your own furnishings.
  9. After the move, please return any empty moving boxes to the Operations/Facilities office.
  10. Dispose of all garbage - you may borrow the vacuum from HSB Operations/Facilities, however, you are responsible for emptying it after each use.
  11. Please return un-needed keys to the Operations/Facilities office.

HSB Facilities tracks your name, keys, location, phone, etc. online for University and Emergency Information.

What do I do if I have a lot of documents that need to be shredded?

  1. Go to http://archives.ucalgary.ca/forms/shredInfo and fill out the “Confidential Shredding Services Order Form - MAIN CAMPUS AND FACULTY OF VETERINARY MEDICINE” form.
  2. Once your shredding request has been approved you will receive notification of the approval. You will then be asked to submit another form/ set of forms. This second form/ set of forms will go with the boxes of material to be shredded. This second form needs to be signed by your shredding coordinator. The HSB shredding coordinators are Area Administrators, HSB Reception, and Operations Administrator.
