STAFFING 60. Continue to review its<br />
human resource information<br />
systems <strong>and</strong> ensure that<br />
accurate data is available for<br />
the entire organisation, so that<br />
a clear <strong>and</strong> comprehensive<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing of vacancies can<br />
be established.<br />
The <strong>Trust</strong> has introduced a phased<br />
programme to consolidate<br />
establishment data against the<br />
electronic staff record, including<br />
cleansing the record of posts that<br />
are no longer in use, <strong>and</strong> with<br />
finance support. There have been<br />
challenges in aligning the HR<br />
ledger data with the electronic<br />
record. Further work is needed<br />
<strong>and</strong> there is, as yet, no formal<br />
process in place or agreed for<br />
managing establishment control.<br />
The move to electronic staff<br />
change / termination forms has<br />
been difficult to implement, <strong>and</strong><br />
there has been a delay in getting<br />
fully accurate reporting on<br />
vacancies <strong>and</strong> establishment.<br />
The <strong>Trust</strong> systems to reconcile ledger <strong>and</strong> ESR will ‘go live’ on<br />
07/11/12 <strong>and</strong> will be evaluated for compliance on 30/11/12.<br />
The work is led by Gill Perry; Leigh Malyon supported by Mark<br />
Greene (Finance)<br />
Sept 12 update: A great deal of work has taken place to align the<br />
financial ledger with ESR. This work is now complete except for<br />
the updating of the old subjective codes for medical staff within<br />
the finance ledger. Updating these codes by finance will<br />
completely align the ledger to ESR. Finance are in the process of<br />
cleansing the old subjective codes ,<br />
it is envisaged that this work will be complete in the next few<br />
weeks. A process & procedure for establishment control has been<br />
developed <strong>and</strong> agreed. Next step is the development of the<br />
electronic change form <strong>and</strong> testing of the system – it is<br />
anticipated this will be complete by beginning <strong>November</strong>.<br />
