On March 14, Human Resources introduced updates to Workday, including a refreshed user interface featuring a more modern and streamlined design that improves visual clarity and accessibility. Navigation has been simplified with improved menu layouts and quicker access to frequently used features.
The “Menu” button has been retired and replaced with a left-side navigation panel, allowing users to locate tasks and applications more efficiently across devices.

Reminder: Help a Colleague in Need – Vacation Donation Program
From time to time, staff may face unexpected personal challenges that require them to take time away from work. The Vacation Donation Program allows employees to donate a portion of their accrued vacation time to a shared pool that can be distributed to colleagues in need.
Your generosity can make a meaningful difference by helping a coworker focus on their recovery or personal matters during a difficult time.
