Internal Mail

  1. All sensitive and confidential documents eg. Requisitions , leave forms , claim forms etc. should be recorded in a Delivery Book ( obtainable from Stores) to ensure proof of delivery and to track your mail.
  2. It is preferable that the date of despatch is clearly indicated on Internal Envelopes to track the time frames of deliveries.
  3. Items are to be clearly and completely addressed to avoid delays and confusion , eg. an item marked “Mr. Smith – Finance” , would create confusion – it should read “Mr Smith – Debtors – Finance – 6th floor – D Block – M L Sultan Campus”.
