Introduction
If you are a former state employee returning to state service, then you will likely need to reset your employee self service portal. If you are a current state employee, and have forgotten your password, you can attempt to reset it through the employee self service portal.

5. If you did not set up a security question, the system will ask you for your social security number. Enter this without dashes, i.e., 123456789:

6. The system will then create a new temporary password for you, which you should use to sign in. This password will expire as soon as it is used, and force you to change to a new password:

7. If the system will not allow you to reset your employee self service portal password, please email MMB at selfservice.mmb@state.mn.us and ask them to reset your password for you. You will need to give them your state employee ID number.
