Lawson & Employee Self-Service
Login Change
Effective February 17, 2025, the login and authentication process for the Lawson application and Employee Self-Service has been updated with a new look and feel. This update is required for future Lawson enhancements and utilizes Microsoft Azure for Authentication. This is the same authentication process as Microsoft Office 365. Meaning, if you are already logged into Office 365, you may not be presented with a login screen for Lawson and/or the Employee Self-Service portal.
*Note: Lawson users will no longer see a bookmark within Lawson to access Employee Self-Service. To access Employee Self-Service while using Lawson, you must first close your browser completely, then open a new browsing session and navigate to https://ess.luc.edu.
Who is affected by this change?
Any individual who accesses Lawson. This is a seamless transition with no additional setup or configuration required by individuals.
