Due to the COVID-19 pandemic impact on UNM operations and budget uncertainty, and to ensure the continued safety of our employees, HR Benefits & Employee Wellness is canceling the 2020 Preventive Health Checkups.

The checkups normally take place from July through October. In light of this change, Employee Wellness would like to remind and urge you to remain vigilant about learning your health status by scheduling an annual checkup.
