Alberta Health Services Employment Letter

World Canada

Published

Hi everyone,

I just got hired as an RN by AHS and will be moving to work in a small town soon. I would like to get an employment letter in advance in order to apply for a mortgage pre-approval (just in case). Who should I contact for that: my manager or is it centralized for all AHS (like payroll)?

I would contact my manager to ask, but she's on vacation...

You will get an employment letter eventually, but it wouldn't hurt to call the zone's HR department and ask to have it expedited. My recent experience was a verbal offer on June 13th, a written offer in my ePeople file on June 20th and an email with the written offer in it dated August 11th... for a position that took effect on July 31st. If you aren't already an AHS employee, then you don't have an ePeople account so you can't look it up and print it from there. Your best bet then is the zone HR office.

Thanks janfrn!

I don't have an access to InSite and ePeople yet. I don't even know my employee number...

I do have my official offer letter tho, but my mortgage broker would not accept it.

Can I bother you to kindly look up the HR department phone # for the North Zone? I searched the AHS website, but looks like that info is only available when you log in to the InSite...

Or a generic phone # of a switchboard for employees.

Please and thank you!

Can you ask your manager for the letter? One of my co workers was having trouble with ePeople (kept on locking her out despite having the correct password) and in the end she asked our manager for an employment letter.

The manager SepKiku needs to talk to is on vacation. SepKiku, I'm sending you a personal message.

Wow. Who knew Alberta Health Services has 321 employees in the HR department??

And try and find one who will talk to you? Hmph, they don't even answer their emails.

Interesting. When I moved to Covenant Health it took almost 2 months of calls and emails for AHS to revise my contact information. You'd think with that many HR staff they'd sort it out.
