If a worker changes jobs, what happens to their user-based security group assignments?

When a worker changes jobs within Workday, their user-based security group assignments remain intact unless they are manually removed. This means that the system does not automatically alter or revoke their security group memberships simply due to a job change.

This behavior is intentional and allows for flexibility in managing users’ access rights. It is common in many organizations for employees to retain certain security roles or access privileges even when they transition to new positions. This ensures continuity of access for ongoing projects or responsibilities that may not be directly tied to their current job role.

However, it is important for administrators or security personnel to review and potentially update these assignments to ensure that access remains appropriate and aligned with the worker's new job responsibilities, thereby maintaining data security and integrity.
