The University of Otago uses several Human Resources systems to manage staff matters during recruitment and throughout their employment.
- Ascender is the payroll system used to process payment for all staff, apply increases and bonuses, and manually edit leave details as required.
- Staff Web Kiosk is used by all staff to manage their employment details, access payslips, and book leave. Managers use Staff Web Kiosk to approve timesheets and leave requests, as well as access limited details of their employees such as checking employment details and leave balances.
- Taleo is the recruitment system used by recruitment staff and hiring managers to create and post job requisitions and manage incoming applications for permanent and fixed-term roles.
- CASPER is the casual recruitment system used by staff to create and post job requisitions and manage incoming applications for casual roles. Applicants use CASPER to apply for roles and supply the required information and documents.
