When 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 design allows for a smoother transition for the employee, as it ensures continuity in their access rights and permissions associated with their prior role. Keeping security assignments in place helps avoid disruptions in access to necessary resources and information that the employee may still need in their new position, especially during a transitional period.

The ability for security groups to remain assigned provides flexibility for organizations in managing user access without the need to reassign security permissions manually every time a job change occurs. This approach ensures that the security infrastructure is both efficient and effective in adapting to workforce changes.
