BAS03 - application for the issue of a third party identification and access control card.
Access control identification cards will be issued to all permanent or temporary third parties working at UCT for periods of three weeks or more. They must be supported by one of the following members of staff:
- the head of department (academic departments);
- the director/head of department (administrative and support departments);
- the relevant dean.
Third parties can be defined as:
- Employees of contractors undertaking outsourcing functions such as catering, campus security, cleaning, grounds and gardens;
- Employees of agencies such as the NRF and MRC;
- Independent contractors such as PAWC-GSH staff (but not JMS-PAWC staff who are by definition UCT staff because they are joint staff, and should get UCT staff cards);
- Consultants;
- Medium to long-term visitors who are neither staff (whether honorary or remunerated) nor students;
- Commercial tenants leasing the university premises for private use.
