FAQ - Schedule Changes for Employees paid on the 10th effective with the June 2018 pay period
Common Human Resources System (CHRS) is a Chancellor’s Office initiative designed to create a single HR data management system for all of the CSU. It includes upgrading to the latest version of the PeopleSoft HR application and providing a consistent baseline of technology. In addition, the program will deliver a shared HR data warehouse that will be centrally developed and maintained, will include a core set of analytic tools (dashboards and reports), and will provide a data source for local campus data warehouses. CHRS will have many valuable benefits for the overall system and the campuses.
