Estates and Departments' Responsibilities Matrix

The safety of UCL's buildings is a shared responsibility. Estates and Departments must work together to ensure that equipment functions properly and that maintenance and checks are conducted. A comprehensive matrix has been developed to clearly outline the responsibilities of each party. 

Key areas covered by the matrix

The matrix covers a wide range of building management activities, including:

• Fire
• Electrical
• Portable and Fixed Appliance Testing
• Air conditioning
• Lifting assets
• Water
• LEV/fume cupboards
• Lift
• Gas
• Pressure systems

By taking a few minutes to review the matrix, you can quickly identify if your department is responsible for a specific task, helping you ensure that your department is meeting its obligations and contributing to the overall safety and compliance of UCL's buildings. It also provides contact details for each of the areas covered.
