Common Human Resources System (CHRS)

The Common Human Resources System (CHRS) is a CSU-wide initiative designed to modernize HR processes and unify all campus HR databases into one centrally managed system.

For the past several years, our campus has been preparing for this transition by working closely with CHRS project experts. These collaborations have focused on system changes, data clean-up, and guidance outlined in Position Papers. In addition, module documentation is helping shape the system design and highlighting key differences between CHRS and our current PeopleSoft system.

We are excited to announce that Cal State East Bay will soon begin transitioning to the Common Human Resources System (CHRS), a CSU-wide initiative to unify and modernize HR systems across all 22 campuses. This project is part of a systemwide effort to create a single, integrated HR platform that streamlines processes, strengthens security, and enhances the employee experience. To learn more, visit the Chancellor’s Office CHRS website.

CHRS is the new MyHR PeopleSoft system that will replace current HR platforms across the CSU. With a modern interface and mobile-friendly design, CHRS will provide improved navigation, enhanced self-service capabilities, and consistent HR process for all campuses.

The new system will deliver significant benefits, including:

  • Efficiency: A united platform for HR, payroll, and benefits, reducing redundancy and manual processes.
  • Standardization: Consistent HR processes and reporting across all CSU campuses.
  • Security: Stronger protocols to safeguard employee data.
  • Accessibility: Mobile access and a more user-friendly experience for faculty, staff, and administrators.

Faculty, staff, and administrators will see changes in how HR-related tasks are completed as processes are standardized across the CSU. While this may require some adjustment, the long-term advantages include streamlined operations, better reporting capabilities, and improved support.
