Log in to MinGat

Once the system is activated on November 1, you will have access to MinGat.

You open the system through the Self-Service Portal. There will be a tab called “shift” and a tile/shortcut named “Register shift”.

Log in to the Gatgo app

You can use Gat as an app if you wish. It is called GatGo, and you can download it from the App Store or Google Play.

The first time you log in to the app, you must be logged into MinGat on a PC.

1. From MinGat on PC, click on “Go to mobile app” on the MinGat homepage. The screen for connecting devices will appear. Follow the steps in MinGat to connect GatGo to MinGat.
2. When the app is downloaded on your mobile phone, click “Next”. A QR code will now appear on the screen in MinGat.
3. Open the GatGo app on your mobile phone, click “Log in” and “Accept terms”. Then click on “Scan QR code” on the phone, and hold the camera so that you see the QR code in GatGo.
4. When the QR code is recognized, an 8-digit code with letters or numbers will appear on the mobile. Enter this in the next step in the MinGat wizard. Click “Next”.
5. Enter the confirmation code from GatGo into MinGat and click “Next”. The connection is verified in GatGo and MinGat, and the app is ready for use.
6. When the app is installed, a new icon in MinGat called “My apps” will be available in the MinGat menu.

How to use MinGat

When you are logged into MinGat, you will find help at the top right. Here, there will always be updated guidance.

What should you use MinGat for?

• register all work time
• submit timesheets
• register absences such as self-certification, sick child, welfare leave, vacation, senior days, exam days, etc.

You can also use GatGo for this. The quotas in the Self-Service Portal will update based on what you register in MinGat/GatGo.

What should you still use the Self-Service Portal for?

Even if you use MinGat to register work time and absences, you should still perform the following tasks in the Self-Service Portal as before:

• apply for leave for absences longer than 15 days
• check payslips and salary information
• update profile and next of kin information
• submit travel expenses and reimbursements
• apply for vacation transfer to the next year
• view annual statement
• add extra tax deduction
• submit resignation
• register external work

Dates for Timesheets and Payroll

Deadlines for submitting and approving timesheets from November 1 will be announced.

November’s salary will be paid based on what you registered using the old method in October. In December, the first salary from the registrations in Gat will be paid.

Payment dates remain the same.

Emergency staff

If you work in one of the units that will use MinGat from November 1, you will no longer use the emergency codes in the Self-Service Portal. Your shifts will be set up in Gat, and you only need to register emergency responses.
