What Is Workday?

Workday is the system all Universities of Wisconsin universities will use to standardize and streamline finance, human resources, and research administration processes, including accounting, managing time off, completing payroll, and closing out research awards.

Everyone who works at a UW university will use Workday to do employment-related tasks like submitting time off, managing their employee profile, and accessing job-related training. With Workday:

  • You can track which step of a process you’re on — keeping you in the know.
  • Important tasks and reminders come right to you.
  • Automated processes save you from manual entry — and save you time.
