Creating Academic Affiliates in Workday
CONTINGENT WORKERS
Academic affiliates are individuals who are not a paid employee but who are approved
by an academic unit for access to Workday or other University systems requiring a
UARK username and password. This may include individuals serving on faculty committees,
(unpaid) visiting scholars, etc. These individuals must be set up as a contingent worker in Workday with the type, Academic Affiliate. This is generally completed by the
unit’s Employment Coordinator.
Training materials and additional resources are available through the Project One Training page.
