Almost 50% of colleagues have logged on to Employee Staff Records (ESR) from home - whether to check their payslip, change personal information or do their training. It's really easy to set up - and we've also included the information on the CHFT Website so you don't have to worry about remembering where to look for it.

It's also possible to do your essential safety training (EST) from home too, once you're all set-up. In some cases you may be able to claim time back in lieu, but this must always be with prior agreement with your line manager.

Take a look at the page - it's on the Working For Us section of our website here. It's the same information we have on our intranet - we're just trying to make it as easy for colleagues to access the system as possible.
