Council employees sign-up form

Who should complete this form

This form is for current City of Â鶹ӳ»­ employees who do not have a council email address and need access to systems using their personal email address.

From 6 October 2024, new employees to the Council (who are not getting a work email address as part of the role) do not need to complete this form. Their personal email address will be added to the new HR and Payroll system by our Onboarding team in order to give them access.

  2. The Orb - our intranet where you can read information on our rewards including pay, benefits and holidays, employee communications, wellbeing initiatives, as well as guidance and support on all our policies and procedures
  3. myLearning Hub - our online learning experience platform. You can personalise your learning experience, and myLearning Hub can make recommendations on topics that might interest you, and show you new content.
  4. askHR - our online HR helpdesk which lets you raise questions directly with Human Resources.
  5. Communications - you'll receive regular updates from us on what's happening.

How to sign-up 

  1. Fill in all the details on the first page.
  2. You'll need a personal email address, plus a note of your employee number (also known as your payroll number) and National Insurance number. 
  3. Once you complete the form, allow seven working days for system access to be granted.

By signing-up, you'll help to contribute to our commitment in the Council’s print and digital mail strategy - this focuses on creating a print environment that reduces costs and print volumes, reduces our carbon footprint, and ultimately helps move us towards our end goal of Net Carbon Zero.
