Are your iTrent details up to date?
In the spring of next year, we will be introducing single sign on for everyone who has an @devon.gov.uk email address. This means that the credentials you use to log into your work laptop or desktop. Your first name and surname together with a password will allow you to open iTrent without the need for any additional usernames or passwords.
Please take a few minutes to log into employee self-service and check your personal details. It would really help us if you could make sure your work email address is held and correct. Please contact the team if you have any questions about using the system.

A trial to treat some of Exeter’s busiest cycle routes during cold weather is being extended this winter and it’s already being put to good use during the current cold spell.
Following the success of our initial trial runs last winter, more routes will now be de-iced when conditions are freezing, supporting our efforts to promote active travel and meet net zero carbon emission targets.
