Dashboard has been confirmed as the University’s new IT system for casual workers and will manage the process end to end from registration for casual workers, Right to work checks, through to bookings, worker agreements, timesheet management and payments. Dashboard will replace UPS2, which will be switched off permanently. Therefore it is crucial that Institutions begin to prepare their future operational processes for paying workers.
