KNOW YOUR WORKGROUP
UAB is a complex organization with diverse responsibilities among its employees, so it is necessary that some policies, processes and programs apply differently to various entities and academic/administrative and clinical business lines.
- At times decisions affecting the workforces of these operations must be made independently.
- In order to improve communication during these times, UAB has formalized the classification of these workforces as Workgroup A, Workgroup C and Faculty.
KNOW YOUR WEATHER GROUPS
When UAB closes for bad weather, decisions must be made and communicated for many entities/functions that react differently to a closing. Assigning students, faculty and staff to dedicated groups (GREEN, YELLOW and RED) will improve clarity around the process:
- UAB Human Resources has worked with entities across the enterprise to assign units and/or job functions/titles to the GREEN, YELLOW or RED group.
- Every UAB student, faculty and staff member is responsible for knowing his or her assignment in the GREEN, YELLOW or RED group
