Access
You do not need to apply for access to the ESS. An account is automatically created for you when you are added to the HR Management system, Alesco.
Username and Password
Your username is your (full 8 digit) staff number.
The ESS uses its own authentication system - it does not synchronise with Pheme. When your account is first created, your password is based on your date of birth using the format ddmmyy (6 digits). When you log in for the first time, you will be required to change your password, which must be between eight and 15 characters and have A-Z characters and at least one numeric character. The passwords are case sensitive.
Set yourself a secret question and answer at the same time so you can retrieve your password if you forget it.
If the ESS is unable to generate a password, or if you have forgotten the answer to your question, contact the IT Service Desk on 6488 1234.
You should ensure that all passwords remain secure and confidential. Passwords must not be shared within work environments.
