Key details that should be included: Provisional start date This field should contain the actual start date that has been agreed with the individual following the completion of all pre-employment checks – this will then be used in their contract of employment. For agency workers/contractors this should be the start date agreed for the commencement of the assignment. Work schedules Work schedules are essential to a number of BW processes. The system uses this information to both deduct the correct number of hours for each working day from annual leave balances, to deduct the correct number of hours during a period of sickness absence, and to ensure that pay is calculated correctly. It is therefore essential that you input the correct work schedule for the individual. Ensure the work schedule is completed for all appointments even relief/casual as this is mandatory. 0.00 can be entered each day for staff on 0 hours. Guidance on how a work schedule should be documented can be found here: Work Schedules and Contracted Hours Guidance (sharepoint.com) Redeployees This form should be completed at the end of the trial period once this has been confirmed as successful for the new contract to be issued. If pay protection will apply, this needs to be included in the ‘Further Information’ section of the form. Allowances Attraction and Retention allowances that have been offered as part of the recruitment process need to be included on the form. This will ensure that this is appropriately referenced in the contract of employment. Any other types allowances that may be required should be added via the Allowance and Salary Amendment form, once you have been notified of the new starter Resource ID. Continuous Service Date Where an individual is joining LCC with continuous service from any public authority to which the Redundancy Modification Order [Local Government] 1983 [as amended] applies, please ensure this date is completed to enable entitlements to be set up correctly to recognise this. Appointing one point below, and spot salaries Under the Current Position Details Section the grade for the position will be shown. Under the Appointment Details Section you will need to select the grade below and the SCP one point below the maximum point of that grade. In the ‘Further Information’ box please insert details to confirm that the appointment is in accordance with the Appointing One Point Below Policy and therefore should remain on the SCP listed until otherwise informed. Where a spot salary has been agreed, you will be able to select the appropriate grade for example G2.1. If salaries are fixed on the basis of the achievement of a qualification, for example, please follow the process for appointing one point below as noted above. Other considerations If you are appointing an individual to a new position, you should have already considered whether this position will have any additional financial responsibilities within BW, such as a role of requisitioner, Spend Manager, Budget Manager, or working within the Financial Services or Pensions Teams, when you established this role. Requests for this should be in line with the Scheme of Authorisation and that the appropriate role has been requested based on the tasks they will need to complete, for example an individual cannot be both a Spend Manager and a Requisitioner. If you have not already requested this via the Position and Recruitment form, please ensure that this captured on the ‘Further Information’ section of the Notification of Appointment form, and ensure your usual Finance contact made aware of this requirement. If you are appointing into an existing position, the current financial role for that position will be applied from their start date. If this should not be the case, please detail as above, and ensure your usual Finance contact is aware of this requirement. Deadlines and approval process This form can only be submitted by the line manager held in BW for that employee and it will then workflow through to the following: * HR Admin – to verify all information required has been completed * Business Support– to verify all checks are complete * Finance – to action for budget updates * HR Admin/Payroll – to make the changes on BW Please ensure you allow time for the form to be approved or rejected back to you for adjustments to be made and to ensure it is re-submitted in time to meet payroll deadlines. There is no automatic approval after a set period – forms will remain at that workflow stage until action is taken. Please note that the form cannot be accessed by HR Admin/Payroll for processing until all of the previous steps in the workflow are complete. Guidance on payroll deadlines can be found here: Starters, Changes and Leavers - HR Admin & Payroll Deadlines (sharepoint.com) Where a new employee to the Council is due to start in post between/on/or after the 15th and the end of a month, their first pay date will be the 23rd of the following month. Forms that arrive via a completed workflow after the payroll deadline will not be processed until this following month, which can result in under and overpayments, and impact on employees. Please ensure you begin the process with sufficient time for all approval stages to be completed. Requests for advance payments and overpayments are all monitored to help improve performance and can be mitigated by ensuring all changes are submitted to HR Admin ahead of payroll deadlines. Don’t forget that completing the BW tasks is only part of the process of preparing for a new team member. A key part of this is setting up their IT systems access, including their email address and access requirements for BW. Please ensure you complete the Create New User Account form at the same time as your Notification of Appointment form for those joining LCC. You will be required to enter the email address provided by IT into BW to enable your new starter to access the system Further guidance on this, and the other tasks you will need to complete to make this a smooth process can be found here: Step-by-Step Guide ONBOARDING (sharepoint.com) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 Attachment PDF NOTIFI~1.PDF (514 KB) Was this answer helpful?
