If you are unsure of the anniversary you are celebrating, please login to Workday and look at 'Overview' in your profile on the left side of your screen, and then select Service Dates' at the top center of your screen.

If you are an Academic employee, click on 'Academic Years of Service.' If you are a Medical Center team member, click on 'Medical Center Years of Service.' 

Employees with long tenure contribute to the University in many ways, and offer a valuable knowledge-base that supports our overall work and mission. To show our appreciation, we recognize and award those who achieve long-term service milestones – 10 years of continuous service and every five years after. Thank you for your commitment!

Details

Service anniversaries of 10, 15, and 20 years by July 1 are honored annually at a University-wide reception (UVA Health) or locally by their school or unit (Academic). If you reach your 25 or more years of service milestones, we are proud to celebrate with you at the Annual Service Awards Dinner. If you have not reached your anniversary by July 1 of the award year, you will be recognized the following year. For example, someone hired July 4, 2008 celebrates a 10 year anniversary in 2019.
