Telework

Before moving the workstation home, the employee must obtain the appropriate authorization from the person in charge of the department. The employee must forward the request to SIIC via iAjuda, attaching the duly completed form available here.

Employees who do not have administrative privileges for their workstation (desktop or laptop) must request that the VPN be installed before moving the equipment home.

If the workstation is a desktop computer, they should request a network cable to access the internet at home, as Iscte desktops do not have a wireless network card.

Through VPN it is possible to access from anywhere services only available on iscte’s internal network.

Networks and Connectivity
