Do password age limits affect my ability to access the Employee Self Service Online (ESSO) System?
Password age limits do not affect staff accessing the Employee Self Service Online (ESSO) System. ESSO is unique from other systems available on the CQUniversity network as it provides staff with access to their personal employee records. As a result ESSO is configured so that both former and current CQUniversity staff can access their employee information regardless if their password exceeds the 180 day password age limit. Former CQUniversity staff can access the ESSO System for up to two years after they have ceased employment with the University. Staff in this situation should use their existing CQUniversity username and login password. When current CQUniversity staff change their passwords, the ESSO system is automatically updated with your new password. This means whenever CQUniversity staff change their password it is immediately synchronised and active across all systems throughout the CQUniversity network.
