UHG requiring personal email

Sorry but to me it feels like this emergency test is also to make sure we have a personal email so when they lay us off they can just send the documents or communication there. I went in and there is no way to remove it. Maybe I’m extremely paranoid but hey that would be this organizations fault to begin with.

When I got layed off last week, after they read me "the script" my boss specifically needed to confirm what my personal email address was on file. With that, they send the contract to both work and personal, and then they confirm you received it at both addresses. It's not a big deal. You can't get out of layoff just by removing your email. And they can't lay you off without personally discussing it with you.

This is yearly and usually happens before hurricane season when many lose power.

It is used for both emergency contact and to send your severance package to. This is standard practice for any organization.

It's just the yearly test. Was useful during the hack to notify everyone to keep laptops off.
