UKG UPDATE
From Paul Dean re: UKG HRIS & Recruitment Update April 20th, 2023 – Implementing a new HRIS can be a daunting task, but when it comes to UKG, the benefits of making the switch are clear. Since its implementation nine weeks ago, our organization has seen a significant improvement in our HR processes. This has led to a substantial decline in overtime for our staff, reduced paper consumption across the entire district, and increased access to important information for our employees/schools/departments.
We have been able to automate HR manual tasks, freeing up valuable time and resources. For example, our employee onboarding process has been significantly streamlined, allowing new hires to complete their paperwork online and reducing the time it takes to get them up and running in our system. Another area in which UKG HRIS has improved our HR processes is in electronic forms. The system offers a user-friendly interface that allows employees to easily complete custom forms, checklists, and contracts.
As we look to the future, you will start to see process improvements system-wide and additional features being rolled out. Also, we are in the process of building the Learning and Performance modules in UKG to have a one-stop shop for all of our staff’s resources, training, professional development and evaluations. As our implementation of UKG modules progresses, we anticipate it being a game-changer for our organization.
SPECIAL DISTRICT ELECTION FOR BLS SCHOOL BOARD
From Scott Maben, Director of Communications, ext. 1006: The May 16th Special District Election is in four weeks, and included on the ballot are contested races for four of the seven seats on the School Board for Bend-La Pine Schools. In previous elections we have shared election guidance for employees, addressing expectations of conduct in the workplace as we strive to keep our schools neutral political zones. District policy and state statute guide and protect us in these efforts.
On a related note, candidates should not be actively campaigning, distributing campaign literature, or fundraising in our facilities during staff work hours. If a candidate for office contacts you or a member of your staff seeking to visit with district employees about their candidacy or campaign, please direct them to Scott Maben, [email protected], or 541-668-5523.
