Tell IT services someone is leaving

You should complete a leaver form on the Assyst portal. 

Use this form to arrange the return of your employee’s equipment and removal of their access to IT accounts, applications and confidential information.  

You must complete a leaver form if the employee is leaving due to: 

• normal resignation
• early retirement
• redundancy
• compromise agreement

Why you must do this

Any delay in making this request could result in a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998. This could put the council and service users at risk and may result in a security incident being raised against you. 

Remove social media access

If your employee has access to the council’s social media accounts and tools, you should arrange for this to be removed. This includes Hootsuite, Pulsar and Facebook Business Manager. 

Login details should be given to a member of their team and their Communications and Marketing team lead.
