INFORMATION FOR MANAGERS

FLEXIBLE RECRUITMENT TOOLS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

Many of us are supported by hourly paid student workers on campus and committed to giving students real work experience, whilst ensuring that they have the best opportunity to succeed in their studies.

For this reason, from 1 April 2016 students are allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours per week in term time. This will enable more students to take advantage of the variety of work on offer at the University, whilst achieving a work-study balance. Brunel University London has also enforced an 8-week rule where workers must submit their hours within an 8-week period before the timesheet is locked. This is to promote best practice for workers and students at Brunel and to ensure payment is dealt with in a timely manner.

The benefits of Talent Bank are that managers can approve/query a worker’s timesheets instantly and quickly via their mobile, tablet or desktop. The new system is flexible to allow the manager who is aware of the hours worked to be the first stage approver and those with budget control to be the second stage.
