One Housing Group introduces integrated HR and payroll system

One Housing Group will implement an integrated HR and payroll system as part of efforts to grow its business, attract and retain talent and improve administration.

As part of a seven-year deal with NorthgateArinso, the housing provider will manage its recruitment processes online. Both employees and managers will have access to self-service systems, which are designed to improve the communication and generate better management information.

Further services will be added to the system later on this year, including online payslips, which will help the Group reduce costs and paper waste.

Susan Heslop, HR manager at One Housing Group, said: "We were looking for a provider that understands the public sector and its challenges, while offering innovative solutions.†

"The past 12 months have been a busy period for integration after bringing three housing associations under a group structure, and NorthgateArinso's solution will help us move forward and ensure that transition period runs smoothly."

NorthgateArinso was chosen to provide the scheme through the public sector procurement process Catalist.
