New Workday Alerts to Support I-9 Reverification Compliance

Effective August 17, employees and student employees with expiring employment authorization documents will receive new automated Workday reminders designed to help them stay ahead of important I-9 reverification requirements.

The alerts will notify employees when they become eligible to renew their employment authorization and provide guidance on the steps to take once updated documentation is received. Reminders will be sent at regular intervals leading up to the expiration date of the employee's current documentation.

This enhancement is intended to provide earlier, more consistent communication to employees while supporting the university's ongoing commitment to Form I-9 compliance. By encouraging timely renewal and reverification, the alerts will help reduce the risk of employment authorization lapses and streamline the reverification process for employees and departments alike.

Departments should continue to use the available Workday reports to monitor upcoming document expirations and support local compliance efforts.

For additional information about the reverification process, please review the Reverification and Rehire section of the university's I-9 Compliance Program.
