Yale Workday: How To Change or Add Veteran Status

Yale Workday: How To Change or Add Veteran Status

Recent changes to federal legislation, requires Yale as a recipient of federal contracts, to provide the federal government with data indicating the number of faculty and staff in our workforce who are protected veterans and/or persons with disabilities. In an effort to comply with these requirements, I ask if you have not already done so, that you take a few minutes to respond to voluntary questions regarding self-identification of disability and protected veteran status.

Can you tell me about your current role at Yale University?

I started at Yale on October 7, 1995, as a budget analyst for fire and grounds. About 13 years ago, I became the budget analyst for custodial and recycling. Right now, it’s approximately a $60 million budget. It entails a lot of different interactions, mostly with the area managers and superintendents.
