MI HR - COMING TO YOU IN AUGUST 2004!

What is "MI HR" (pronounced MY HR)?

MI HR is the state's new HR service program jointly sponsored by the Executive Office and the Directors of the Department of Management and Budget, Office of the Budget, Office of the State Employer, Department of Information Technology, and Department of Civil Service (DCS). The DCS also partnered with departmental human resource offices to help identify appropriate HR activities that can be effectively centralized.

MI HR Information: This new on-line access to HR information is tailored to you and your employment situation. It is written in an easy to understand format to cover the basic benefit, payroll, and HR issues most employees have at some point in their state careers. You can log in to your MI HR Information from the MI HR Employee Self-Service Gateway page or choose the MI HR Information link when you log into MI HR self-service.

MI HR Service Center: The customer support center is just a phone call away. The center will be staffed with state employees trained as HR customer service representatives whose job focus is assisting you with questions or resolving basic problems related to your state employment experience. They will have information at their fingertips to help you understand and navigate the MI HR service system and assist you with making updates and changes to your records. The center will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

You can call the MI HR Service Center at 1 877-766-MIHR (6447). The MI HR Service Center also works through the Michigan Relay Center for employees who use TDDs or TTYs.
