New Password to Replace PIN Online

Later this month, each employee will begin using a new password for the LiteBlue website and online self-service applications such as PostalEASE, eCareer, ePayroll, eJob Bidding, and eOPF.

Currently, employees use their Employee Identification Numbers (EINs) and 4-digit Personal Identification Numbers (PINs) to access LiteBlue and online self-service applications. That will change when Human Resources and IT launch a new online program to help each employee create a stronger password, 8-16 characters in length.

The password length change is being made to improve protection of personal information by moving to an 8-character, more secure password. By the end of April, employees will need their new passwords as well as their EINs to access LiteBlue and online self-service applications.

Employees conducting self-service HR transactions over the telephone (not online) will continue using their current EINs and 4-digit USPS PINs.
