Organisation • Line management (Resources allocation and supervision) – Supervisor – Section (BE-RF-FB) – Group (BE-RF): Erk Jensen, Frank Gerigk (Dep) – Department BE (Paul Collier) – Sector ATS (Frederick Bordry) – DG • Projects (technical and financial project resources): – HL-LHC, LIU, AWAKE, Consolidation, ELENA • Large projects report to ATS management • Operation – Operating machines managed by BE-OP • Decisions and proposals made by – Boards (line and project management) – Committees – Working Groups • Reviews (recommendations): technical and cost and schedule • FB Section resources have been looked by team of scientific staff and supervisors in spring 2018 result is a planning for the next five years 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
News from SL Meetings (1) Mondays 14:00 13 meetings in 2018 • Work site supervisors during LS2 for the different areas – “ouverture de chantier procedure” • Asset management: A. Butterworth • BE Newsletter, RF correspondant: W. Hofle • CO3 (controls coordination, FESA …) – Tickets for CO group for LS2 work due end of September • Official Travel rationalization (R. Jones) – no more reimbursement of privately bought air line tickets contact secretariat for your needs • Emergency guides needed for evacuation (Daniel volunteered for 864-R-C) 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
News from SL Meetings (2) • Phones: – mobile phones: ask if needed • contract with Swisscom being renegotiated for better roaming conditions to neighbouring countries • difference between “private and official” may disappear in the wake – Fixed phones • plan to replace by “skype for business” with headset • certain IP phones no longer supported, analog phones phased out • if you need a fixed phone (office, lab, equipment room), ask secretariat now 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Good Practice • Presence and Leave: Staff rules say: – 8:30 – 12:30, 13:30 – 17:30, +/- 1 hour – if systematic derogations needed contact central secretariat – Illnes and accidents: report to supervisor and secretariat • Illness of a family member: ask in time what you are entitled to and what type of certificates are needed – Leave year finishes 30 September HR or secretariats: • be aware what the rules are in case your leave account is > 30 days • saved leaved scheme (optional) – Maximum time worked per day and per week: • Rules foresee that you take leave after interventions (EDH) to respect limits – You may be asked a justification for exceeding limits • Telework (occasional, needs approval) – urgent (for example weather); give reason on form or call supervisor, explain and agree on what you will work on from home – non-urgent (no reason needs to be given), explain what you will work on; make request the day before, before COB so it can be discussed if needed For all Teleworking see the rules in the operational circular 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Email • Give it an extra consideration before you hit “send” – What is your objective? – Is sending this email an effective way for all involved? – Think if it is within the mandate of the person receiving the mail to treat your request – for questions and actions: address to single person – use cc with moderation; I do not use bcc – be aware that your email may be forwarded or shared by the recipient • direct conversation, phone or a meeting can be a better way to achieve your objective (with a written confirmation by mail after agreement) • Chat systems ? 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Safety gear • request by management to return rarely used dosimeters – we can put the operational dosimeters in the TRAKA Box, too (need a check if they fit) • Safety helmets, check validity and change if required • Safety masks (Stephan Rey) organises maintenance 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Cars • CERN cars: observe rules, keep clean and with fuel, report problems to Reinier – we’ll keep the present number of cars in LS2 • For official travel (also for visitors): ask the secretariat what the rules are and what the best solution is 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Training • Safety general and specific (accesses to machines !): keep it up to date – online – class room style • Training budget is per department – Travel for training is on the groups travel budget • Check what training you need 2018/2019 • Accelerator related – CERN Accelerator School (CAS): • https://cas.web.cern.ch/ • will inform you when new dates for relevant schools – Local CAS (1 week) – AXEL courses by OP 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Conferences and Publications • Accelerator related – check www.jacow.org • https://www.bnl.gov/llrf18/ – Cryo module microphonics and resonance control (25-26.10.2018, Brooklyn, New York) • IPAC’19 (19.-24.05.2019, Melbourne, Australia) – proposals from FB section forwarded (ATS sector decides on candiates) – PhD students need to apply for grant – submittal procedure (Authors, Supervisor, SL, PL, GL; website) like for all publication • LLRF workshop (Chicago autumn 2019) – http://www.llrf2017.org/ – Participation to be discussed – Funding to be seen – contribution can be published; – https://arxiv.org/search/?query=LLRF&searchtype=all&source=header • If you wish to go to more engineering conferences (IEEE for example) make a proposal • Consider publication in Journal or a detailed CERN Note or Report as a good alternative 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
Budgets • Operation FB Section: – 69270 (PSB/PS) – 69370 (SPS) – 69802 (LHC) Please send to me your needs for 2018 • Operation (Group): LINAC4, LEIR, AD • Safety, informatics for offices, travel, general are RF group budgets • Signature rights – 500 CHF, 5 kCHF, 10 KCHF, unlimted – priority at signature level can be defined – however, no mechanism to filter where order came from • i.e. if you have the 500 CHF signature right with highest priority you will have to sign all orders of people who do not have a signature right on that budget • 2019 OP budgets: Send me your needs (instruments, repairs, maintenance) 30/08/2018 BE-RF-FB Section Meeting
