Changes to new starter process

February 12, 2018

On 1 March, the information that managers are required to complete to notify ESR/Payroll that a new employee has commenced will change:

  • New starters will need to be hired by the manager via ESR self-service on the day the employee commences; this will send a notification to E-Rostering if required.
  • All employees will require access to NHS Mail, please ensure the Request a New IT user account form is completed on Connect.
  • An electronic form located on the ESR connect page called new starter personal information will need to be completed by the employee to provide payroll with their bank account, tax and pension information.
  • The employee will need to access employee self service (users must have an NHS mail account to do so) to update their emergency contact and diversity data; this will also ensure they can view their payslip online as well as complete mandatory training.
  • The current appointment form on connect will be removed.

If you currently complete appointment forms via connect and do not have access to ESR please contact s.sutton2@nhs.net and request access to manager self-service.

If you require additional support when hiring an applicant please read through the document below or contact ESR and they can talk you through the process.

Hire an Applicant

Supervisor users are unable to action hires, you will need either administrator or manger self service, if your access needs to be reviewed please contact ESR .
