HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

(HRMS)

BACKGROUND Directive from HOD’s office to:

• create a user-friendly environment to access Employee data.
• provide an on-line solution to assist with the communication between Head Office,

District Offices and Schools (CPS, CAT, Customised Form Building, Additional and Excess Educator Modules).

• provide readily available statistical information to assist Senior Managers in decision

making, pertaining to employee records (Customised Report Building Module)

• track and manage employee attendance throughout the province, by providing real-

time data on a daily basis (Attendance Module).

• assist in the process of cleaning up the PERSAL environment (Persal Share Module)
• assist with the backlogs experienced in the capturing and management of leave

throughout the province (Leave Module)

• build a repository of easy accessible, reliable and accurate information as extracted

from PERSAL (NCEdu Info Module).

• Ensure the most cost effective, timeous and effective way of introducing an on-line

solution to assist with HR Information Management.

HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

(HRMS)

• In order to improve access to information and to improve service delivery, the department identified

the need for a system to support human resource management related issues.

• The Northern Cape Education Department (NCED) has, therefore, developed the HRMS, an

information management system to assist principals and managers with staff matters.

• The HRMS has been designed to display current employee information, as captured on

Persal.

• It is therefore with great anticipation and enthusiasm that the Northern Cape Department of

Education will launch this ‘first-time’ initiative, that provides on-line access of employee information to all relevant role-players across the broader educational fraternity.

• The data to be reflected in the HRMS will be downloaded weekly from Persal.
• Principals and managers will be able to log into the system to view progress in respect of matters

referred to the Human Resource directorates at Head Office.

• Communication will be enhanced, as principals and managers will be able to send messages or

enquiries on the HRMS system.

• The areas of leave, employee attendance, paysheet control, tracking of contract

appointments, control of additional and excess educators, as well as the provision of HR- related information have been selected as the critical areas to be addressed by the HRMS.

signed by the circuit manager.

• After receipt of the completed registration form (attached), the system administrator at

Head Office will register the Principal/Head of Component on the HRMS and then inform that principal of the granting of access to the system.

• Said registration forms have to be completed by the Principals and Secretaries and

brought along to the scheduled training sessions to be held throughout the province.

• Public service staff (supervisors) will be registered on the HRMS by completing the

registration form signed by a line manager.

• Except for the staff attendance register, principals and managers will not be able to

change any data on the HRMS. However, a message and enquiry system will be available so that the systems administrator at Head Office can be requested to make changes.

• Under the ´NCEdu Info’ Menu, the Heads of Components will be able to find all relevant

documents pertaining to the various Acts, Regulations and Policies.
