Human Resource Services will host an informational session focused on managing stress during the holiday season. The approaching holiday season brings many expectations. Often this makes us feel like we are being pulled in a hundred different directions. There are office parties to attend, family get-togethers to schedule, children’s holiday recitals and gifts to buy. The holidays can be one of the happiest times of the year, yet it can also be one of the most stressful. Maintaining balance and keeping stress from overwhelming you are the keys to an enjoyable holiday season.

The Governor recently announced that State of Iowa employees will receive two days of additional holiday paid time off. UNI is allowing the additional holiday paid time off to be used for regularly scheduled work days from Sunday, November 27, 2022 through Saturday, December 31, 2022, with supervisor approval. The time off is encouraged to be taken in full day increments to allow for a true rest period from work responsibilities, but may be taken in as little as one hour increments if needed.
