Entering The LaSalle Building
Visitor Sign-In Requirements
After entering the LaSalle Building, all guests visiting C&E must sign in with the security guard at the front desk on the first floor upon arrival. A sign-in sheet will be provided and must be completed upon entry and exit.
Employees: Responsibility for Visitors
Employees expecting visitors for meetings or other business purposes must ensure visitors are provided, in advance, with the name and phone number of the C&E employee they are visiting. Upon arrival, visitors will be required to contact that employee, who must retrieve them from the first floor and escort them to the appropriate location.
Employees must also provide visitors with a backup contact name and phone number in the event the primary contact is unavailable at the time of arrival. The security guards will not contact employees on behalf of visitors. It is the employee’s responsibility to ensure visitors are provided with all required contact information prior to arrival.
Employees: Forgotten Badge Procedure
Temporary printed badges will no longer be issued. Employees who forget their badge must sign in with the security guard at the front desk upon arrival and contact a coworker or supervisor to escort them to their floor. A sign-in sheet will be provided and must be completed upon entry and exit. Responsibility for access rests with the employee.
