Active Employees and Hire actions

It’s important to use ‘Add Additional Job’ instead of the ‘Hire’ task when adding or changing jobs for employees already active in Workday. Workday will not allow a Hire action to be completed for active employees.

Before using the ‘Hire’ task for an employee, check both Workday and MyWSU to try to locate any existing person record, to ensure the correct process is being used.

View the updated Hire Reference Guide for further information on which actions to use for active employees, and the appropriate use of the Hire process.
