Data checks for new HR/Payroll system

HR, Finance and Information Services are working together to procure and implement a next generation HR/Payroll system. A key part of the new system will be Employee and Manager Self-Service, allowing you as a staff member to access your details and much more.

As part of the preparation to bring in the new system we will be launching a data cleansing exercise later this year to make sure the basic information we hold about you is correct.

We will be giving you the opportunity to login to a secure web page, check the current details we hold and let us know of any needed adjustments. We will ensure that a full explanation is included regarding information use and protection of confidentiality.

We'll be asking you about the following information:

• Your contact details
• Your equality & diversity details
• Your emergency contact details

The new system will ultimately make it much easier for you to provide live updates to your own information which is critical for correspondence, statistical purposes and in cases of emergency. This initial data cleanse will be one of the first steps - as the project proceeds, we will be sure that further updates are provided. If you do have any questions in the meantime, please contact project manager, Chris Wootton at c.wootton@kent.ac.uk
