Coming to Haas Campus
- Haas Faculty, Staff, and PhD students have access to Haas buildings using your Cal1 Cards (Cal ID).
- Note that Haas buildings remain locked, so access is via Cal1 cards only. As on-campus activities increase, we will re-evaluate the timeline to return to normal business hours and standard open building access (expected late July/early August).
- Please also note that the Cal1 Card Key access is managed by Central Campus, and some glitches may have been incurred during the card key access re-instatement process.
- If possible, please test your Cal1 Card Key access during business hours (M-F, 9 am-4 pm, PDT). For any access issues, please submit a ticket to fixit@haas.berkeley.edu, and include your name, Cal1 Card number (front and back), and the exact building(s) entrance that you are having access issues with.
- Prior pre-approval is no longer required to come to campus and work in your workspace.
- Face coverings are still required on campus. You may remove your face covering only if you are alone in a room or enclosed space.
- The Campus badge system remains in effect and you need to have Green badge status to be on campus.
- The badge system requirements have been updated for those who are fully vaccinated. To learn more, please visit the UHS Badge System info page.
- Learn more about UCB’s requirements on this page (scroll to the Planning assumptions for the return to campus section)
- As per standard operations, if you are in need of a reservable space (eg. classrooms, event spaces, study rooms, conference rooms), you need to make reservations via EMS, or in writing to roomres@haas.berkeley.edu.
NOTE: Haas is limiting on-campus reservations to academic and academic-related events through August 18, 2021, as we focus on our full return-to-campus operations.
Haas Phases for Return to Work on Campus
Based on the guidelines and criteria, business units will develop their own staffing plans that allows for departments to be open during regular business hours and meet business needs.
Based on what we learned in the transitional period and what we hope to see as our “future of work,” during this time business units will use this period to test out new flexible work arrangements and staffing plans. Details of this phase will be developed during the fall.
This phase will reflect our ‘new normal’ and may involve reimagining our space, which will take longer to develop.
