To view your current benefits enrollments, log into Workday (myworkday.wisconsin.edu) and go to the Benefits and Pay Hub under the Menu where you can view existing benefits. You can also manage your supplemental retirement benefits in Workday including enrolling in the UW 403(b) Supplemental Retirement Program (SRP) or make changes to your contribution election in Workday.
To make changes to other benefits, or to enroll if you are a newly hired or newly eligible employee, you will need to use My Insurance Benefits, a secure online application that provides access to insurance information administered by the Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF). Through My Insurance Benefits you can view detailed information about your benefits enrollments (health, life, disability and spending accounts), review and update dependent information, or make changes to your benefits. Access My Insurance Benefits in Workday from the Benefits and Pay Hub under the Suggested Links on the left-hand side.
Before accessing My Insurance Benefits for the first time, you will need to complete a one-time registration and create a login using your personal email address and personal identification information. Using your personal email address and identification information to create your My Insurance Benefits account ensures you can access other ETF-managed benefits, such as retirement information, when you retire or leave UWM employment.
- Creating your account will generate a MyWisconsin ID, which will be your long-term credentials to view and manage most of your benefits. Visit the ETF website for more information.
- Use the “sign up” link if you have never created a MyWisconsin ID account before. Note: If you have not previously created a MyWisconsin ID account and try to enter your email at the login, the system cannot tell you if that email address was previously used.
- Contact ETF, ETFSMBIDHelp@etf.wi.gov, if you have any issues setting up your MyWisconsin ID.
If you have any questions or need help, go to the Workday for New and Current Employees web page. You can also contact benefits@uwm.edu for support when using My Insurance Benefits.
