Purpose
Access
Employees have access to Adler University’s Chicago campus Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Weekend access is subject to campus operating hours.
The university lobby is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Outside of these hours, employees must enter the building through the 1 N. Dearborn Street entrance. Security personnel at 1 N. Dearborn may require identification verification to grant access.
Keys
Most areas on campus utilize coded locks that do not require physical keys. However, keys will be issued to employees as necessary to perform their job duties and to secure files and other materials.
Elevator access is managed by the Facilities Team. Employees who require access to the 16th floor due to a disability should contact People & Culture to provide the necessary documentation.
Contact Office
All key requests must be submitted to the Facilities Department. Employees are strictly prohibited from duplicating any office or filing cabinet keys.
Scope
Access
An Adler University ID badge is required for elevator access and must be visibly displayed at all times while on campus. Employees who do not have their ID badge must obtain a visitor sticker for the duration of their visit on campus. Visitor stickers are issued by the receptionist or security officer at the 15th-floor reception desk.
Keys
All full-time employees, as well as adjunct faculty and part-time staff who work on campus, will be issued a photo identification badge that provides building access. Employees must report to the IT Service Desk to obtain their ID badge.
All employees who are issued keys are required to read and sign a Key Certificate of Receipt form outlining their responsibilities and the consequences associated with lost or unreturned keys.
Employees are responsible for the safekeeping of all assigned keys and access badges.
Upon termination of employment or resignation, all keys and badges must be returned prior to the issuance of the employee’s final paycheck. Keys must be returned to the Facilities Manager, and access badges must be returned to a member of the IT staff.
