April marks Workplace Violence Awareness Month, a time dedicated to recognizing, preventing, and responding to workplace violence to ensure a safe and supportive environment for all employees. At UC Davis, we are committed to fostering a culture of safety and resilience. Throughout the month, we will be offering several opportunities for staff to engage in training, education, and discussions on workplace violence prevention.

The intention of this support space is to provide a safe and confidential space for people dealing with challenging relationships.

National Women's History Month highlights the achievements and contributions of women throughout history, emphasizing the importance of recognizing their impact on society. As we celebrate this month, it’s equally important for campus and health employees to prioritize safety by staying aware of their surroundings, using available safety resources, and following proper protocols. By fostering a culture of support and vigilance, we can ensure a safer and more inclusive environment for everyone.

This month, UC Systemwide Human Resources will collaborate with Deloitte Consulting LLP to conduct a comprehensive employee benefits survey for faculty and staff. Emails to participate will launch the week of March 17, 2025.

Some dependent relationships may change over time, and family member eligibility reverification ensures that only those family members who are eligible continue to be enrolled.

Today is Employee Appreciation Day, so to every dedicated team member contributing to our mission at UC Davis and UC Davis Health, we’d like to say THANK YOU! 

Please know how grateful we are for your commitment to our students, patients, and community. 

Under new guidelines, retirees who return to UC employment within 26 weeks (6 months) of retirement and meet specific eligibility criteria will be offered the "Mid-level" faculty/staff benefits package instead of retiree medical benefits. UC retiree medical benefits will be suspended for any rehired retiree who is offered faculty/staff benefits, regardless of whether they enroll.

UC Davis is offering a Pathway to Retirement webcast to help employees plan for financial security and enjoy all that retirement brings. The webcast will cover the following planning essentials, as well as a Q&A session for general questions.

Bystander intervention is when an individual or group takes action to de-escalate or address a hostile, harassing, or inappropriate situation.

In this Race Matters session, we’ll explore how these enduring values help us navigate today’s challenges and advance DEI initiatives that impact our students, employees, patients, and community.
