What is a Position Work Location (PWL)?

A position work location (PWL) indicates the location where the position’s work will be performed. PWLs are determined by the employee’s assigned manager in Workday, in consultation with University Human Resources, and considers numerous factors, including:

  • specific job duties;
  • the nature of the work performed;
  • operation and business requirements; and
  • impact on the department.

PWLs are not subject to review or appeal by the employee.
