Update My Contact Information in Workday

Update Contact Info

It's important to keep your permanent home address, personal email address, and a primary mobile phone number up to date. We'll use your number for RISD!Alert to contact you during a campus emergency. If you work at RISD as an employee or a student worker, we may use your address to send you important tax documents.

RISD always sends emails to your RISD email address but providing a personal email lets us reach you if you depart RISD.

On the left menu, click Contact

Ensure you have a Primary and Phone Type Mobile number. U.S. phone numbers are preferred but international phone numbers may be entered. We'll use your mobile number as your RISD!Alert contact for campus emergencies. (This is not the same as your Emergency Contact, the person we call if you experience an emergency)
