Indentity cards, Vehicle checks and Workplace checks
There have been several incidents
recently in which personal and company property has been
stolen at Adastral Park. The Police and BT Security are
investigating the incidents and arrests have been made.
We have sought professional advice
on the situation and as a result security measures will
be stepped up. It is in everybody's interest to ensure that
we work in a secure environment and so the following actions
will be taken:
Identity cards
Security staff will be checking passcards
at buildings on site and on a sample basis validating the
details. You will be escorted from the Park if you do not
have a valid passcard.
Vehicle checks
Your vehicle must be registered if
you work at Adastral Park and you want to use the free car
parking facilities. Security staff will be checking vehicles
on the Park to enforce this policy.
Workplace checks
Out of hours security checks have
shown that people's approach to basic security is poor.
Recent examples have included confidential documents being
left in open areas, PCs left switched on with no screensaver
password protection, and valuable items not locked away.
These security checks will continue, to reinforce the message
that security is everyone's responsibility.
The recent break-ins have emphasised
the need for increased vigilance.
Please remember to wear and display
your security pass at all times and challenge people in
your workplace who are not. Lock all doors to rooms that
are left unattended.
For further guidance, the local BT
Security team can be contacted on 01206 893013, although
BT people are asked to contact their divisional security
co-ordinator in the first instance. BT people can also find
further advice at security.intra.bt.com - and should report
all losses immediately to the BT security control centre
on 0800 321999.
