RESOURCES FOR MANAGERS
New Hire
Orientation
Congratulations on the hire
of your new employee! Human
Resources is committed to
giving our new employees a
great experience and
introduction to our
university at the attendance
of their new hire
orientation. In order to
achieve this goal, there are
prerequisites that must be
met before your new employee
can be registered for NHO.
Hiring departments are
responsible for registering
their newly hired faculty
and staff employees for NHO.
To help your new employee
have a great experience day
one at the University of
Houston, please complete the
following prerequisites
before registering him or
her for NHO:

Offer (RFO) via our online
job systems (OJS).
Once your new employee
has accepted the job offer,
direct him or her to HR for
employment eligibility (form
I-9) and direct deposit sign
up completion. Be sure to
complete and send a
New
Employee Authorization
request form with
your new hire to HR.
Submit the electronic
personnel action request (ePAR)
via PeopleSoft. To expedite
the ePAR approval, please
attach the following
documents with your ePAR
request:
o Personal Data Sheet (3
pages total)

o If the employee is a
foreign national, include
their Foreign National Tax
Packet
o I-9 and direct deposit
sign up receipt
Time, Date and Location
NHO is held every Monday:
9:00am – 3:30pm, McElhinney

to confirm enrollment.
Parking Accommodations
