Pre-Inter Authority Transfer (Pre-IAT)
A Pre-Inter Authority Transfer (Pre-IAT) is run through the Electronic Staff Record (ESR) by the HR Shared Services (HRSS) Recruitment team before issuing an offer letter to the successful candidate. It is used to confirm the candidate's salary information held in ESR from their previous employment. HRSS can use this information to confirm the pay-step point the candidate is currently on and increment date where required; this replaces the need for a payslip to be provided.
Inter Authority Transfer (IAT)
The HRSS Recruitment team run an Inter-Authority Transfer (IAT) through ESR when a candidate is hired into ESR and their start date has passed; the IAT returns the details of previous service held by the candidate with any NHS employer.
