In addition to this, your teaching colleagues and administrative staff within the Faculty will be pleased to assist with any further enquiries you might have. We hope you enjoy your time with us and encourage you to get to know all your colleagues as well as the Faculty’s academic and support staff. 2
GENERAL INDUCTION INFORMATION Swinburne Induction Process The University provides useful information to assist in your induction process at the following site: http://www.swin.edu.au/corporate/hr/induction. Links to many useful and important sites on the University site are available from http://www.swinburne.edu.au/corporate/hr/induction/links.php. Introduction to Hawthorn Campus All units of study based in the Faculty are conducted at the Hawthorn campus, with some staff also teaching at Lilydale. A map of the Hawthorn campus is included (see Appendix 2) or can be downloaded from the university website: http://www.swinburne.edu.au/campuses/. Absences or Lateness If you are running late for class or are unable to attend, please telephone your Unit Convenor or the Faculty Administration office (Undergraduate: 9214 8859; Postgraduate: 9214 5209) as soon as possible in order for alternative arrangements to be made. Accident Reporting Procedure Accidents to all staff, students, contractors and visitors must be reported to the Manager Facilities & Laboratory Support (Cameron Young) through your supervisor. The appropriate form must be completed so that the accident can be analysed and preventive measures put in place. An Incident/Hazard form is available from the OH&S website: http://www.swinburne.edu.au/corporate/hr/ohs/. Recent changes to Work Cover Legislation mean a Work Cover claim for compensation can be disallowed if an Incident/Accident Report is not received by the employer within 30 days of the injury. An Incident/Hazard Report is considered received by the employer when it is handed to the appropriate supervisor or manager. If you have an OH&S concern please raise it with your direct manager in the first instance. If you want advice, wish to raise an issue or lodge a Hazard Report, you can contact the health and safety representative, Chris Key or Soula Mougos on 9214 8550. Alternatively you can contact Human Resources - Occupational Health and Safety at Hawthorn: OH&S Consultant on 9214 8157 or the HR WorkCover Coordinator on 9214 8561. For more information about OH&S issues please visit the website: http://www.swin.edu.au/corporate/hr/ohs_home.htm. Assignment Destruction Under State government policies and procedures, (PROS 02/01 Authority for the Records of Higher and Further Education Institutions); Section 11.2.0 -Interim Assessment Compilation, the destruction of assignments, assessments and exams has been clearly detailed. Assignments/assessments need to be kept for a minimum of 10 months before destruction (6 months once the administrative use is concluded, but SUT keeps material for the extra period to allow time for the student appeals process). Remember that any destruction of assignment or assessment materials must be with the knowledge and/or approval of your unit convenor. 3
