UCPath Notice: New Emergency Contact Option for Employees

April 15, 2026

Employees can update their emergency contact information in UCPath to add a contact to be notified if they are detained or arrested at work.

Why This Matters
This update ensures employees can record their notification preferences. It is part of the California Workplace – Know Your Rights notification issued earlier this year. 

What You Need to Know
The new option is available in Employee Self Service under Emergency Contacts. No action is required from locations, but you may receive questions from employees. UCPath encourages locations to remind employees to review and update their emergency contact information.
