It is the responsibility of each staff member to ensure
that their mailing address is up to date in "IMIS" for UNHQ staff members,
in Atlas for UNDP staff members, and in SAP for UNICEF staff members;. Staff
members should, therefore, contact their personnel or executive offices
in order to provide or update their mailing address as may be necessary.
Please be aware that the insurance carriers will only recognize mailing
addresses that are electronically transmitted to them from UN. It
is essential that the mailing address bear the U.S. Postal abbreviation,
e.g. New York and New Jersey, must be designated as NY and NJ respectively.
Zip codes must also be part of the mailing address, otherwise the insurance
carriers will reject the data transmission.
In this regard, staff members are advised that the Insurance
and Disbursement Service does not forward correspondence from insurance
companies. Incomplete or incorrect mailing addresses in IMIS will
result in misdirected mail, and you will not receive important correspondence,
ID cards, or even benefit cheques. Therefore please make sure your mailing
address is correct in IMIS.
