New starter arrangements

On a new starter’s first day in any post (whether the employee is new to the University, or has transferred from another department) there are a number of things that must be checked,  information to be provided to the individual, and information that must be collated to ensure that everything is in order with the appointment, and to enable the individual to be set up on Core.

Key: ensure the new starter has been told where, when and who to report to on first day

  • ensure that right to work documentation has been seen and copied
  • complete payroll notifications
  • record current address and contact details
  • record next of kin details
  • collect P45 from new starter, or ask them to complete P46
  • issue University card and any other departmental access cards/keys
  • issue induction programme
  • organise departmental tour
  • essential health and safety
