MyHR+
The integrated HR and payroll information management system
What is MyHR+?
Human Resource departments are increasingly required to be strategic business areas. My HR+ is an enabler in improving the operations and delivery of HR services in the public sector. With over 120,000 employees spread across almost 200 ministries, departments, agencies and public bodies, it is very challenging to maintain and access basic employee information using paper-based systems or a variety of electronic systems. It makes the management of HR inefficient. This leads to, among other things:
- poor internal customer satisfaction
- poor people decisions and
- a bad view of HR departments
MyHR+ is a bespoke system and offers different levels of access based on job function. The system is being implemented on a phased basis and it is a very easy-to-use web-based software that allows organisations to manage and operate more efficiently.

Some of the main benefits of the system are:

How the System Works
MyHR+ is a bespoke system that offers different levels of access based on job function role. The general interface is the most accessible layer which allows employees to access self service features like employment record, schedule leave, submit claims, request salary advances, register for training and view, print and save payslips. The Back Office gives HR/Payroll access to more features than the general user interface. HR and Payroll are able to access employee data and can make changes where necessary, i.e. performance management, facilitate recruitment, run payrolls, process bank deposits, and more. Support allows public service employees to contact the MyHR+ team to address technical issues experienced. The support section of the system gives three (3) options for making contact. These are by email, telephone or through online chat.
