Getting Access to Kronos

There are three levels of access to Kronos. The decision concerning which level of access will be granted to you has been determined by your department.

 

Employees recording their time using a TimeClock

  • UTMB Employees are able to clock in and out shortly after they are "hired" into the system.
  • Your Badge may need to be registered in Proximity Enrollment.
  • Your Timekeeper / Manager should provide instructions on how to use the TimeClock.

Employees who are Timekeepers / Managers for their area

If you are a Timekeeper or Manager:

  • ALL Timekeepers and Managers must attend training before access is granted to edit and approve timecards. Register for the 4-hour classes.
  • Once you've attended class, your trusted requestor for your department will need to submit a Tivoli request for you to be granted access.

To access Kronos from an off-campus PC, you must be using VPN or Citrix. Learn more on the Working Remotely webpage.
