IMPORTANT: NEW PROVISIONS FOR NEST Lab
Dear All,
Following the spirit of the Prime Minister directives dated on 26th of April, and of the SNS Director, we have to maximise smart working at home for everyone during this emergency period, the so-called PHASE 2.
Therefore, until the18th of MAY, NEST building will remain accessible but with some important limitations:
a) The reception at NEST will be open from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM every day of the week: entrance in the building will be allowed only during this period for people having a been authorised by SNS, CNR, IIT and SSSA Lab NEST Directors;
b) Students (including PhDs) are not allowed to access the building until further notice. Possibly this limitation will be somewhat relaxed very soon.
c) You can enter in the building only if you are free of any cold-like symptoms;
You have to be aware of safety rules that must be followed at NEST during the COVID-19 alert ( DVR, risk assessment): you must have attended the COVID-19 safety course course and you must have read the following document:
More details on the activities and additional links and provisions are present on the web site of the NEST lab.
d) The access to laboratories is allowed only if explicitly approved by the NEST director and is regulated and limited by standard operating procedures (POS). The access schedule to the laboratories is prepared in advance by the SNS, CNR, IIT and SSSA Lab NEST Directors.
e) Activities in the offices are possible in any case if only one person is present. Two people are tolerated for short periods (less than 1 h) if the two people can keep the distance of 1.8 meters and if they ventilate the office while they are present. Please arrange for shifts with your officemates as necessary.
Best wishes
Gigi Rolandi
