Personal Health Assessment (PHA) – Save the Date

Returning soon in fall 2018, the Personal Health Assessments will be continuing at Lawrence.  The PHA process is part of a large initiative to assist participants in managing their health and wellness.  Upon completion of the PHA, participants will receive a personalized report to help better understand how your lifestyle habits affect your overall health.  Your results of the biometric and lifestyle scoring are confidential.  Participation in the PHA process is open to all staff and faculty employees and all spouses/domestic partners on the Lawrence University medical plan.

Assessment days are as follows:

If you or your spouse/domestic partner who is covered under the medical plan have any concerns regarding availability during the available assessment days, please contact your HR Representative to discuss participation options.

The Financial Services Team is requesting budget managers or other designees to review the June and fiscal year end 2018 reports by the close of business Monday, July 23.

This is an important due date so the team can move forward with additional year end close processes and get ready for the annual independent audit.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

This is a friendly reminder that Lawrence University is tax exempt from sales tax on goods and services purchased in Wisconsin.  Last week Financial Services obtained over $350 in refunds for sales tax that should not have been paid.  Please try to keep our exemption in mind when making purchases on behalf of Lawrence University during our new fiscal year 2018-2019.   Vendors should not need anything more than the Wisconsin tax exempt form that can be found on the Financial Services website.  The link is below.
