Employee Card

All employees and long-term guests will receive an employee card.

Your (guest)employee card can be used for the following :

  • Enter buildings before or after opening hours (8am - 18 pm).
    Check in before 18pm, if you stay longer.
  • Coffee machines: With your card, you can get free coffee at the employee coffee machines in all UT buildings. New (and replaced) employee cards are activated every week on Monday. For questions, please contact wda-cfm@utwente.nl.
  • Access to sports and cultural activities: You can have subscriptions added to your card for the use of sports and cultural activities. Some are free of charge for employees.
  • Library card University Library: your card is automatically activated for the library. For more information see the University Library.
  • Building access: In AFAS you enter your building and room number in the 'workplace information' section. You are automatically authorized for the building entered there with your employee card on office days. (Please note: Automatic building access is only available for one building. If you have entered a second building/room in AFAS, grants for that building must be requested manually.) For details on days/times and other available rights per department, please see the access/authorization page.
  • Printing: You can print in all UT buildings with your card. The first time you scan your employee card at the printer, an instruction sheet for the so-called follow-me printing system will be printed.
  • Lockers: As an employee, you can use lockers on our campus that you can activate with your employee card. An overview of these lockers and instructions on how to use them can be found on the Service Portal.
