UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Starting Aug. 9, Workday users across Penn State will experience a new look and feel to their homepage when they log into the system.   

The new homepage highlights relevant tasks, applications, and announcements — all personalized to the individual user. It is divided into as many as six sections, depending on each user’s security role. These sections include: Awaiting Your Action, Timely Suggestions, Your Team (for managers), Quick Tasks, View All Apps, and Announcements. 

This new interface streamlines the user experience on both desktop and the Workday mobile application. 

To support users in navigating the new interface, the WorkLion Management Office offers the following training materials: 

New Workday interface job aid 

New Workday interface video demo  

Questions about the new interface can be directed to HR Shared Services at 814-865-1473 or by submitting an inquiry through the WorkLion Portal
