Prior to Day 1, staff members are encouraged to activate their Unite Identity Account and set up a permanent password. They are also strongly encouraged (and sometimes required) to familiarize themselves with Umoja Self-Service functionality by taking Umoja Self-Service tutorials, which are available on Umoja website.
Day 1: Refer to "Umoja Login User Quick Guide", which describes step by step what to do to get access to the Self-Service Portal, and login to Umoja Employee Self-Service Access at https://selfservice.umoja.un.org/https://selfservice.umoja.un.org.
Once logged-in, please check the following personal information.
Address and Beneficiaries: If your address or beneficiaries are not correct or up to date, please update the information on-line using the Umoja Portal.
Dependency Status: Please check the accuracy of dependency records. If you have a new dependant (spouse, child or secondary dependant), you can make a request to add them using the Umoja Portal. However, please contact your HR Partner for any modification of existing dependants or discontinuation of dependency status.
Rental Subsidy: Staff Members can also use the Umoja Portal to apply for rental subsidy. The existing rental subsidy data is converted from IMIS to Umoja and therefore staff members do not need to reapply for existing rental subsidy.
However, staff members can submit a new rental subsidy application through the portal. Before actually submitting the new request, please familiarize yourself with the process using the Self-Service tutorials and simulation, which are available on Umoja website.
Banking Information: Check the correctness of the banking information.
Salary Statement: Once June salary is disbursed at the end of June 2015, staff members will receive pay-slip via email but can also check the salary statement in the Portal.
