Update Your Beneficiary for Unpaid Compensation

Workday Logo with the Checklist and Coin Iocn

Designating a beneficiary for unpaid compensation helps ensure your remaining pay is distributed in accordance with your wishes.

For those who have not yet identified a beneficiary, there is a Change Benefits enrollment event in Workday that serves as a reminder to take a few moments to do so.

Workday Passive Event on Update Your Beneficiary for Unpaid Compensation

Completing or updating your designation allows you to:

  • Identify the correct beneficiary/beneficiaries 
  • Provide additional details that can help in the processing of beneficiary claims
  • Ensure your information reflects your current circumstances

If you have already designated a beneficiary through previous channels, please note that your existing designation remains valid. However, this is a great opportunity to review and update beneficiary information.

Keeping beneficiary information up to date helps reduce delays and confusion. Even if nothing has changed, reviewing your information periodically is a good practice.

We encourage everyone to take a moment to review their beneficiary designation and make updates as appropriate.

For additional information you can access the Beneficiary for Unpaid Compensation job aid.
