Return to campus information

Access to M3 during the Provincial shutdown period will be severely limited.

The SAS online booking system has been blocked off for the Provincial shutdown period. DO NOT use that system for the time being.
General office activity is limited to work that must occur on Campus; any work that can occur remotely must be done from home.
Graduate students, postdocs, visitors and co-op students are expected to work remotely unless they are explicitly named as part of an approved Research Lab plan
Activities requiring specific access to on-campus resources (e.g. specific equipment or locations) will require approval through your unit head, who will arrange for approval from the Dean’s office
Access to M3 will be monitored, and unapproved access will not be tolerated. We all need to do our part to contain the spread of COVID-19; it is important that all members of our community do not attempt to access the Campus unless they have specific approval to do so.

If you still require access to M3, please send Carlos Mendes an email including:

Your office number
Date and time you want to access M3
The rationale for your request
The Department will consider your request, and then we will forward it to the Dean’s Office for final approval. You will receive an email notification from the Dean’s office once the request has been approved or denied.

NOTE:

Ensure you have taken the Returning to Campus Safely During COVID-19 training, access will not be granted if you have not completed the training
Ensure you have read the MATH3 SAS-MBUS COVID-19 Operational Return to Campus Safety Plan
Ensure you complete the Campus Check-in when you arrive on Campus. An auto-notification will come up on your mobile device if you have Eduroam enabled. Otherwise, go to https://checkin.uwaterloo.ca

Requirements before entering M3

Do not come to campus if:

DO NOT come to M3 if you are exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms. Review and follow the University’s Health Protocols at all times.

To minimize risk, employees and students must not come to campus when ill. For this reason, the University requires that employees and students monitor themselves daily for symptoms of COVID-19. The COVID-19 self-assessment tool, found in the WatSAFE app and on the University’s Health Protocols site provides clear directions on how to self-assess. Signage posted at building entrances will remind employees and students to conduct self-assessments.

Ensure that Working Alone guidelines are followed at all times.

Hand hygiene

Hand hygiene should be performed regularly throughout the day. At minimum, employees and students shall wash hands or perform hand sanitization:

When entering or leaving a new space
When they remove gloves
After using shared equipment

Hand washing is the preferred method of hand hygiene at UW. If hands are soiled (dirt, debris, oils, grease, and other contaminants), hand sanitizers will not be effective. Use soap and warm water in these cases. If work consistently causes hands to be soiled, hand washing facilities need to be provided and accessible (sink and soap).

Social distancing and directional signage
Maintain 2M Social Distance from other building occupants.

Please follow the directional signs when walking through the building.

In areas where multi-directional traffic is permitted, please stay 2 Meter from others.

Face Coverings

Face masks or other face coverings are now required in common use areas of University buildings. These areas now also include classrooms and teaching labs

A face covering can be a medical or non-medical mask or other covering, including a bandana, scarf or other fabric that covers the nose, mouth and chin to create a barrier to limit the transmission of respiratory droplets. Learn more on the face coverings webpage.
