Workday is Here! Complete These Important Action Items

Printer-friendly versionPDF version Wednesday, March 20, 2019

Attention: All Associates

Workday launched on Monday, March 18th, 2019,  replacing UltiPro, Kronos, and Success Factors as our new, all-in-one HR service solution. Now you can track your hours worked, submit time-off requests, manage benefits, participate in annual reviews, and much more using Workday.
 
Your Workday Action Items 

  • For hourly associates, begin recording your time in Workday, not Kronos
  • All associates must input their Insurance Beneficiaries and Emergency Contacts – it’s very important those are identified and always kept current in Workday
  • Access to Kronos remained active on Monday, March 18th to allow managers and hourly staff to approve timecards for the March 22, 2019 Pay Date – this must be done one last time in Kronos!
  • If you had previously approved time-off scheduled in Kronos for dates after April 15th, 2019, you will need to resubmit them in Workday for approval; we did pre-load approved time-off for the March 18 to April 14th period, but please double check your time-off was successfully transferred to Workday

 
Additional Reminders

  • UltiPro will remain active for two weeks so you can access any W-2s or pay stubs, after which, you will need to contact Payroll to request that information. Please email payroll@essex.com
  • Paper job change forms (CPR’s) are no longer accepted; all HR-related transactions now take place in Workday
  • Hourly associates can no longer record their time using a mobile device
  • The company organization chart is now available in Workday instead of on Buzz
