Important Security Advice
Members of staff are able to view and update the personal data held in their electronic record within HR Connect. Examples of data held are address details, bank details and training history. Where applicable, changes will require supporting documentation to be provided to Human Resources by the employee e.g. marriage certificate, proof of qualification documentation.
As HR Connect includes some sensitive information about you, it is important that you use it responsibly to ensure that the security of your personal information is maintained. You should therefore always log out of Employee Self Service once you have finished using the system and you should never share your University username and password.
Data Quality
HR Connect is the location of all master employee data within the University. Any relevant changes made in HR Connect through Employee Self Service will feed directly into University IT systems, as well to other third parties such as HRMC, pension schemes and HESA. It is therefore important that the data we hold on you is as update to date and accurate as possible.
If you notice data that we hold on you is inacurrate please read the following guidelines and follow the steps depending on the nature of the data issue.
