What's New
Capital HR at NIH
The Capital HR system is a PeopleSoft based Human Resource (HR) information system used throughout the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to process personnel actions and administer benefits. The web-based Capital HR system replaced the legacy HR information system, IMPACT, in September of 2002. Capital HR contains “core” functionality common to the DHHS and its Agencies and is continually being reviewed for enhancements by the DHHS Program Support Center (PSC). The Department’s current Central Pay System receives data feeds from the Capital HR.
Online Security Recertification
All Capital HR Users are required by HHS to complete the Online Security Recertification.
Why? To ensure that all users have appropriate access to the Capital HR processing system in order to be in compliance annually with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The Security Recertification page is now available online to all users. Please certify your Capital HR access by completing the steps below.
Deadline to complete the recertification: June 16, 2008 5:00 PM EST.
Any Capital HR User who does not complete the recertification by the above deadline, will lose their Capital HR access on Tuesday, June 17, 2008 5:00 PM EST
To verify your security roles, a list of row level security permissions, DPN code (this is a code that allows the system to group HN admin code or sac code) and security roles name/description have been posted in the ‘What’s New’ section at the top right corner of this page.
