UR employees will switch from using the Human Resources Management System (HRMS) to myURHR to record their hours and receive payment starting Dec. 15. This change applies to all employees, student and non-student. 

myURHR is made up of two systems: UKG, which employees will use to record their hours, and Workday, through which employees will be paid.

In order to facilitate a smooth transition, Human Resources (HR) has released a training module in MyPath for student employees to complete.

“The most important thing that student employees need to do before Dec. 15 is to complete the training that has been assigned to them in MyPath,” Executive Director of Enrollment Services Molly Jacob said. “The eLearning training assignments for student employees are myURHR Core Concepts and Time Entry in myURHR UKG.”

The training is anticipated to take about one to two and a half hours, and can be found under “My Learning Transcript” on the MyPath home page.

Employees can also access the myURHR Training — What You Need to Know webpage, which contains frequently asked questions, a glossary of key terms, and checklists for employees to use as they prepare for the switchover.

The switchover to myURHR is intended to work towards the University’s strategic initiatives by modernizing HR, according to the Office of Human Resources.

“The University of Rochester’s new strategic plan will set the course for our future, and an essential element of that plan will be the modernization of Human Resources’ systems, policies and practices,” HR wrote on their website.

myURHR will remove many of the paper forms involved in University employment, switching them instead to digital processes designed to be more intuitive and efficient, HR wrote on their website. 

Before the switchover, employees need to contact their manager for more specific information and save their important documents stored in HRMS, such as tax documents and previous paychecks.

As recently as the early 2010s, it was standard practice for surgeons to provide 30 to 40 or more opioid pills for common, minimally invasive procedures. Most of these pills, however, would remain untouched, left over in the patient’s medical cabinet or kitchen pantries for potential misuse. A team of researchers led by URMC’s Dr. Jacob Moalem set out to reduce these opioid overprescriptions. Read More
