HR, finance and purchasing system replacement: equality impact assessment

This equality impact assessment looks at the replacement of HR, Finance and Purchasing systems in Scottish Government shared service customer organisation. This was huge undertaking impacting on every member of core Scottish Government and many other organisations.


3. Who will it affect, and how?

The replacement of a number of IT systems will affect all staff in core Scottish Government and its public sector Customer Organizations. The new system will replace many, but not all, HR self-service elements.

The flexi, overtime and HR system are critical to the efficient day-to-day administration of Scottish Government. These legacy systems are cumbersome and have significant limitations to their accessibility particularly for assistive technology users. The new system should improve the capacity for all staff to undertake core tasks.

As well as HR functions, all existing Finance and Purchasing systems will be replaced and these will be replaced by an integrated system.
