As we approach Veterans Day, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to the hundreds of veterans who are part of our UC Davis family.
Your service to our country is deeply appreciated, and we are proud to have you as part of our community.
The Onboarding Toolkit for supervisors and managers was recently updated to provide best practices and templates for creating a supportive, engaging start for new hires.
This aligns with key goals identified in our Campus Staff Experience Survey, UC Davis Health's CommUNITY Feedback Survey and The Hiring Experience initiative. The toolkit redefines onboarding with a focus on belonging, integration and growth—key areas identified to improve staff engagement.
While medical plan rates will rise again this year, they won’t increase as significantly as they did last year, thanks in large part to the steps UC campuses have taken to further subsidize plan costs.
August is Family Fun Month, and each year, I look forward to visiting my young adult kids. They are both in that stage of “extended launching” and tend to move around a lot, allowing my spouse and me to explore a new place and do some actual living (that other half of the work-life) with the people I care about most.
For the third consecutive year, UC Davis has been recognized as one of America's Best Employers for Women by Forbes.
This distinction reflects the university's ongoing commitment to fostering a supportive, inclusive and empowering environment for women at all levels of the organization.
