For Current Employees

You can change your benefits elections each fall during our annual enrollment period, but certain life events —marriage, divorce, or the addition of a child, for example—enable you to make changes to your benefits without waiting. Update your elections following a life event by visiting myChoices Health & Life.

We know that as your life changes, your needs do, too. So we have options addressing every age and life stage. Our family programs include lactation support, help finding and paying for care for a child or aging adult, adoption assistance, and so much more. Our wellness programs are here for you, too, with physical fitness classes, stress-reduction or weight-loss assistance, and tools to help you boost your financial health. Be sure to also check out the Johns Hopkins Employee Assistance Program (JHEAP) for help balancing life at home and work, both in good times and when you’re facing life’s biggest challenges.

If you’re not already saving through our retirement plan and would like to start, or if you’d like to change your elections, head to myChoices Retirement.

Looking to master a new software program? Or to better handle interpersonal challenges? Whether you’re in search of skills to help you in your current work or to prepare you for career moves ahead, you’ll find what you need in our Learn & Grow offerings, which include online and in-person classes, workshops, books, videos, and podcasts designed to aid your personal and professional growth.

Remember, you can personalize the myJH portal to quickly connect you to information of interest—about transportation, computing, travel resources, clubs and committees, and more. You also can sign up there for emergency alerts (you’ll find the link under the myProfile icon), which will ensure you get notified about weather-related closings or other emergencies. myJH will take you directly to other useful websites, such as the IT help desk, as well. Through this portal, you can also specify your chosen name, which can be displayed on your work badge and in various JH computer systems.
