Meet Our New OHR Chatbot

OHR is excited to introduce a new chatbot on hr.umn.edu designed to make it faster and easier to find HR information.

Whether you’re looking for benefits information, employee guidance, or quick answers to common HR questions, the chatbot is ready to help. It has been thoroughly tested and refined to provide accurate, consistent responses whenever you need them.

What to Expect

  • Ask one clear question at a time for the most accurate responses.
  • The chatbot will remind you not to enter any personal information for security reasons, so it is unable to offer personalized guidance.
  • The chatbot’s knowledge is limited to content on hr.umn.edu website. It cannot provide guidance for navigating other University of Minnesota sites, such as my.umn.edu or hrms.umn.edu.
  • It is not connected to chatbots on other UMN websites (e.g., oit.umn.edu) and cannot reference their content.
  • The chatbot is not a replacement for HR Professionals. If a response seems incorrect or your situation is complex, please consult your HR Professional for assistance.

If the chatbot can’t fully answer your question, you can submit a ticket for follow-up by our contact center team. We’ll also continue to monitor the chatbot’s performance and improve it over time based on real user interactions.

Give it a try! Just click the chat icon in the bottom-right corner of the hr.umn.edu website to get started.
