A letter from the Vice President of Human Resources to all staff:

May 4, 2011 
Dear SCHR Employee,

Sun Country Health Region (SCHR), along with other health regions, the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency and 3sHealth (formerly SAHO) have taken steps to provide electronic pay statements for you and other staff through a web-based online service called Gateway Online. Gateway Online is an important tool to support administrative needs of health care workers across Saskatchewan.

We would now like to announce the next level of service coming to Gateway Online.  As of June 22, you will be able to make changes or updates to your personal information that is currently on our system relevant to your work. These changes or updates can now be done electronically by you through Gateway Online.

This means if you need to make changes to your personal information on the SCHR system that you will have secure access to your personal information 24/7 from home, work, when you’re on vacation, or wherever you have internet access!  This includes information such as your name, address, gender, marital status, emergency contacts and banking information.  Making changes to your personal information online is more accurate, results in fewer errors, will be more timely, easy to use and will eliminate unneeded steps by notifying all departments of changes to your personal information with your one online update.

Even though the launch date is scheduled to be June 22, there will be a period following this where there will be a parallel process of both electronic access and paper forms.  This is to monitor the overall effectiveness.

In the future, the plan is to have more online human resources processes added to Gateway Online.  We are looking to add leave requests, job postings and other processes which staff regularly access and use.  As these become available you will be notified.

Additional information and instructions for the personal information services on Gateway Online will be posted on the Sun Country Health Region website under the Career section http://www.suncountry.sk.ca/general/225/paperless-pay-stubs-gateway-online.html in the coming weeks.

Yours truly, 
Don Ehman
Vice President
Human Resources
Sun Country Health Region
