NEW TO UBC
Welcome to your new career with UBC! As a UBC community member, you are an integral part of our dynamic organization. We hope that your employment here will be successful, rewarding, and enjoyable.
Our goal is to ensure that you are able to quickly get answers to the many questions you may have during your first few weeks at the University. Working together, we want to provide an easy transition in your new work environment.
INFORMATION FOR NEW HIRES
During your first few days on campus, your HR manager will remind you to enroll for your benefits, complete payroll forms, and provide a department orientation. Here are a few essential things that should be completed within your first week of employment:
Quick Start Orientation
Our Quick Start Orientation is a self-service orientation that enables new hires to access information with a few mouse clicks from their office desktop – either in their new office or anywhere in the world. Your generated results will be delivered to you in a web browser format and to your specified email address. You’ll be able to find out how to get to campus by car or bus, where to eat on campus, where your office building and nearest parking lot is, a list of employee perks, and more!
Benefits Sign-up
All new faculty and staff hires can enroll for their payroll, benefits, and pension package through our Benefits Sign-up. Be sure to review the checklist of items you'll need before beginning this process.
PAYROLL
Inquiries about payroll can be directed to Financial Services. Note that as of June 2007, direct deposit is mandatory for all new employees.
Register for your Campus-Wide Login (CWL) ID
Campus-Wide Login(CWL) is UBC’s single sign-on authentication system. It is designed to give you access to UBC’s online applications with the same username and password. A CWL account currently provides you with access to the Faculty and Staff Self-Service Web Application, Student Information System, the Library, myUBC, and Web CT.
Faculty and Staff Self-Service Web Application
View and update your personal and payroll information with our Faculty and Staff Self-Service Web Application. By logging in with your CWL ID, you'll be able to update your personal information, view your paycheques and beneficiary information, use our myPension feature, and more.
Virtual Welcome and Resource Centre
Now that you’ve completed all your paperwork, take a moment to explore our Virtual Welcome and Resource Centre . You’ll find stories about your fellow faculty and staff colleagues, resources for faculty and staff, and more.
Information for Hiring Managers/Administrators
In any given month, more than 2,000 new faculty, staff, and student employees are hired. To help HR Managers and Administrators with the influx of information that needs to be provided to each new hire, we have created the following resources that mirror what new hires can access during their first few weeks:
