Making Changes
Making changes is easy. Employees can review and update their information online through Employee Self Service (ESS) from any computer connected to the City Network. Caution, if you are using a shared or public computer, be sure to log out when you are finished.
Employees are also encouraged to periodically review their personal information including address, beneficiaries and emergency contact information in ESS, to make sure it is current.
