Maintenance DepartmentUniversity Driver Safety Requirements

To provide guidelines and instruction to ensure all moves are done in a timely and efficient manner, this procedure will outline the steps and procedures for an on or off campus move. Contact information for specific departments can be found on the Move Contact List below.

1. Planning the move:
   1. For small office personnel moves that involve a few people and do not require any preparation of the new space (paint or furniture rearrangement), these moves can be handled through a single work order to facilities.
   2. For all other moves, notify the maintenance foreman (x5447), who will coordinate a meeting to discuss the scope of the move and preparation of the new space. If multiple departments are moving, each department will need to designate a point of contact for the move.
   3. The move checklist should be used as a guideline for the upcoming move. Email moves@unthsc.edu to communicate the upcoming move to ITS, Telecom and Facilities. Contact information for different services can be found on the Move Contact List below.
   4. Large off campus moves: If your department is moving off campus or has an off campus clinic move, the Facilities department may recommend contract movers be hired to conduct the move.
   5. Facilities personnel will not be responsible for:
      1. Packing or unpacking.
      2. Moving experiments, research materials or chemicals
      3. Personal property. In the event of loss or damage, Facilities personnel cannot be held liable for personal property.
      4. Delicate equipment. It will be the responsibility of the department to have specialized movers on site for moving these items. The department will be responsible for scheduling these movers and for payment of all costs incurred.

4. Work Order Entry: A work order must be entered at least two weeks before the move needs to occur. The Maintenance Foreman will enter this as part of their collaboration. Crate delivery, move date, beginning and ending locations, UNT Health asset tag information must be included.
5. Destination Floor Plan: Develop a floor plan for each destination.
   1. Measure to ensure everything moving will fit in the new space. Facilities personnel must follow the UNT Health Safety Office guidelines and will not place items in hallways or chases or in a walkway that blocks the exit route. Contact the Maintenance Foreman if help is needed developing a floor plan.
   2. Place the floor plan showing the placement of all furniture and equipment on each door. There will be an additional charge of $35 per hour, if maintenance or ITS is called back to change the configuration of the office or lab.
6. Moving Crates: Facilities can supply a small number of moving crates to loan for on campus moves. Enter a Work Order for the number of crates needed for your move. If your move requires more crates than facilities can provide, crates can be rented for your move when provided with an account number to be charged.  This will be determined during your move meeting with the Facilities Maintenance Foreman.
7. Packing for the move:
   1. The person or department that is moving is responsible for packing and unpacking for the move.
   2. A gondola can be requested from Custodial for large volumes of trash. Contact custodial when it’s ready to be emptied.
   3. Heavy items and lab equipment including freezers and refrigerators must be emptied before they can be moved.
   4. If freezers need to be thawed, please call Maintenance Foreman to arrange defrosting.
   5. Contact the Safety Office to remove all unwanted chemicals.
   6. DO NOT pack chemicals into moving crates.
   7. Contact the Safety Office for any radioactive lab equipment, or lasers that will be moving.
   8. All personal items and items from your desk need to be packed in boxes and is the responsibility of the owner to label, move, and unpack after moving.
   9. Pack crates and stack on dollies for the move. Make sure crates can be closed when stacked.
   10. All small items should be placed into a box or moving crate.
   11. All file cabinets must be emptied and packed before the move.
   12. All computers and printers need to be disconnected completely.
   13. Place a destination label on the side of each crate, box and items too large to pack. If the crate or box is not labeled, Facilities will move the item but cannot ensure it will arrive at the correct location.
   14. Your department may be subject to an Inter-Department Transfer (IDT) if:
       1. Biohazard cleanup or disposal is required, or
       2. If there is a large amount of cleanup required

6. Move Day:
   1. Turn off all computers and equipment that will be moving before the crew arrives.
   2. To ensure the timely delivery of mail and purchased goods, notify Mail Services and Central Services of your new location.

7. After the Move:
   1. In most cases, moving crates must be returned to Facilities within 1 week. Enter a work order for the empty crates to be picked up. If crates are not emptied within one week, your department will be charged a daily fee of $0.59 per crate until they are returned.
   2. Notify Property Control of all asset numbers that have moved to a new location.

Driving a Vehicle:
Departmental Account Holders may authorize an employee or volunteer with a valid driver license to drive any Health Science Center vehicle that the person is lawfully licensed to operate. Prior to driving a vehicle, the employee must complete a Driver Request Form. The Account Holder will ensure the Driver Request Form is completed and signed by the employee and appropriate supervisor. The employee will be given a copy of the Driver Safety Requirements when requesting approval to drive a University vehicle. The completed original Driver Request Form must be sent to the Facilities Management Office at the Facilities Management Building, 3416 Darcy Street, Fort Worth, Texas. A copy of the form should be kept in the department’s files. The Facilities Management Office will order a copy of the driver’s Moving Violations Report (MVR) from the Department of Public Safety (DPS) after the completed Driver Request Form is initially received. When these reports are received from DPS, if warranted, a Driver Rating Evaluation Form will be completed on the driver. By completing the Driver Request Form, the employee/volunteer driver expressly authorizes the Facilities Management Office to obtain his/her MVR to disclose the information as set forth in this procedure. When the standard for a good driving record for any driver is not met, the Account Holder will be notified and provided with the details from the MVR that renders an employee/volunteer ineligible to drive a
UNTHSC vehicle. The Account Holder will disseminate information on a need to know basis and decide what accommodations or employment options are most feasible for the driver and the department. Any employee who believes the MVR is incorrect may furnish the Facilities Management Office with documentation and the information will be verified. If necessary, the Account Holder may consult the Director of Human Resources and/or the Facilities Manager to evaluate the options available to an ineligible driver whose job requires driving. Vehicles may be requested from the Facilities Management Motor Pool. Anyone driving a vehicle from the Motor Pool must have a Driver Request Form on file in the Facilities Management Office Department prior to driving a vehicle.

Vehicle Responsibilities:
No alcohol use or smoking will be permitted during use of UNTHSC vehicles. Seat belts must be worn at all times. Drivers are responsible to log in and out their mileage daily on the State of Texas Vehicle Use Report Log, which is inside each UNTHSC vehicle. The Vehicle Log must be filled out completely and given to the Facilities Management Motor Pool when the vehicle is
turned in.  Any non-related maintenance repairs and gasoline usage will be IDT’d (Inter Department Transfer) to the department requesting use of a UNTHSC vehicle. The price of gasoline will be based on current costs to procure fuel.  All traffic violations must be reported to the Facilities Management Office.  Each driver is responsible for the safety/operation condition of the vehicle while in use. In the event of an accident, contact Campus Police, at Ext. 2210, retrieve the UNTHSC Automobile Liability Insurance Claim Procedure, Vehicle Incident Report, and insurance ID card can be obtained from the glove compartment of all UNTHSC vehicles. The Vehicle Incident Report must be completed immediately and delivered to the Facilities Management Department
Office within 24 hours of the accident. Drivers should obtain from the driver of the other vehicle all of the driver, vehicle, and insurance information that will be necessary to file a claim from the driver of the other vehicle. No comments should be made about guilt. All accidents will be reported to the police or other authority so there is an official report of the accident. Any inquiries about the University’s insurance and/or responsibility in the accident should be directed to the Facilities Management Office (817) 735-2289. All communication regarding an accident will be made through the Facilities Management Office or Campus Police. If a driver is involved in an accident in a UNTHSC vehicle for UNTHSC business/activity, and is found to be negligent, the driver and/or his/her personal insurance carrier may be held liable.  Use Report Log, which is inside each UNTHSC vehicle. The Vehicle Log must be filled out completely and given to the Facilities Management Motor Pool when the vehicle is turned in. Any non-related maintenance repairs and gasoline usage will be IDT’d (Inter Department Transfer) to the department requesting use of a UNTHSC vehicle.
