For new FAS Faculty:
For information specific to onboarding a new Faculty member, please visit the comprehensive Onboarding Overview for New Faculty guide on the FAS Faculty Resources website.
For new FAS Harvard Sponsored Role (HSR) affiliations:
To request a Harvard Sponsored Role (HSR) affiliation role, use the HSR Portal web application. HSRroles are given to non-FAS employees such as a vendor, tenant, or volunteer for access into FAS buildings or to FAS resources. Most benefits eligible staff are granted access to the portal to request a HSR after a short, required HSR Policy training. Department Administrators act as approvers for HSR roles in FAS. For more information, review the University HSR Policy and visit the HSR Portal Knowledge Base.
Please note: if your new HSR will require a Harvard ID card, submit the request 2 - 3 days prior to their anticipated arrival at the ID office. The Harvard ID office will not be able to create an ID card for a HSR requested same-day.
For new Employee Orientation and Review:
For more information and guidelines on the Onboarding and Orientation and Review Period, visit the FAS Human Resources website. If you are onboarding a new Administrator to Harvard, the Administrator's Atlas provides an overview of the resources availble in the different functional areas of the FAS.
