Whether you are a new starter or a long-term colleague, keeping track of your shifts and pay is essential. Sainsbury’s has transitioned its systems to a centralized portal, primarily known now as Mysainsburys or OurSainsburys, to make managing your work life easier from your phone or home computer.

Here is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to getting logged in and finding what you need.

1. What You Need Before You Start

To access the portal, you will need three key pieces of information:

Your Sainsbury’s Email: This usually follows the format Firstname.Lastname@sainsburys.co.uk. If you don’t have this, your manager can provide it.
Your Password: The one you set up during your induction or first login.
Microsoft Authenticator App: Most Sainsbury’s systems now use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for security. It is highly recommended to have the Microsoft Authenticator app downloaded on your smartphone.

2. Oursainsburys Login – How to Log In (Step-by-Step)

You can access the portal via a web browser (Chrome or Safari are recommended) or the Colleague Hub app.

Oursainsburys Login Via Web Browser:
Go to oursainsburys.co.uk. (Note: mysainsburys.co.uk will also redirect you here).
Click the Sign In button.
You will be redirected to a Microsoft Sign-In page. Enter your full Sainsbury’s email address.
Enter your password.

Verification: If prompted, open your Microsoft Authenticator app and approve the notification or enter the 6-digit code shown on your phone.

Oursainsburys Login Via the Colleague Hub App:
Search for “Sainsbury’s Colleague Hub” in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Open the app and follow the same login steps (Email > Password > MFA).
The app is often more stable for viewing rotas on the go.

3. How to Check Your Payslip

Payslips are typically available to view on the Wednesday or Thursday before payday (which is every four weeks on a Friday).

Once logged into the portal, look for the “My HR” or “Ask HR” section on the main dashboard.
Find the link labeled “Access My Payslip” or “View My Payslips.”
A list of your recent pay periods will appear. Click on the most recent date to view the PDF.
Tip: You can download or print these as PDFs if you need them for a mortgage or rental application.

4. How to Check Your Rota and Schedule

Sainsbury’s uses a system called UKG Pro (which replaced the older Kronos system in many stores) to manage shifts.

On the OurSainsburys homepage, look for a tile labeled “My Rota” or “Work Schedule.”
This will open a calendar view of your assigned shifts.

Understanding the colors:

Blue/Solid Blocks: Your confirmed shifts.
Striped/Lighter Blocks: Available overtime or “unassigned” shifts you can request.
Icons: Small icons often represent approved holidays or training days.
Shift Swaps: If your store allows it, there is often a “Swap” button within the shift details that allows you to offer a shift to a colleague.

5. Additional Features You Should Know

The portal is more than just pay and hours; it is your hub for everything “Green & Orange.”

Colleague Discount: Manage your discount card, check your remaining allowance, or order a second card for a partner/family member.
My Pension: A direct link to the JS Pensions site to see how much you’ve saved.
Company News: Internal updates, “Love It” recognition awards, and CEO messages.
Policy Search: If you need to check the policy on bereavement, maternity leave, or sickness, use the Search bar at the top for the “People Policy” documents.

6. Troubleshooting Common Issues

“I’ve forgotten my password!”
On the Microsoft login page, click “Forgot my password.” You will need to verify your identity via a text message to the phone number you registered during your induction. If this fails, you must call the IT Service Desk at 0345 603 2638.
“The page won’t load or keeps looping.”
This is a common issue on mobile browsers.
Clear your cache: Go to your phone settings and clear the history/cache for Safari or Chrome.
Use Incognito Mode: Opening the site in a Private/Incognito tab often bypasses login loops.
Check the VPN: If you are using a work laptop, ensure you are connected to the Sainsbury’s VPN if required.
