OneUniversity Annual Leave - suspension period update

The maintenance is now complete. Thanks for your patience.

The scheduled maintenance is now underway. We'll keep you updated on our progress.

Dear colleagues

People Directorate People Systems will shortly be undertaking work in the OneUniversity system to reflect the transition to the new 35-hour working week and 42 days annual leave entitlement as part of harmonisation.

We previously envisaged this work would take place from Friday 26 July to Wednesday 31 July and would necessitate a temporary suspension of the leave area of the system.

We are pleased to advise that the team have reduced the suspension period and it will now run from 12:00 (midday) on Wednesday 31 July to 9:00 on Thursday 1 August.

During this time, you will not be able to use the system to book, amend or cancel annual leave or sickness absence. This can be agreed verbally with your manager and then requested using the system once the work is complete.

You will still be able to use the recruitment and remaining self-service functionality throughout this time.

As the financial year end is on Wednesday 31 July, please ensure all annual leave taken up to this date is recorded in OneUniversity before the temporary suspension of the leave area of the system.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding. 

Kind Regards,

People Systems Team  People Directorate
