Here’s what you need to know if you believe there’s been an error in your paycheck.
Common Payroll Errors
While we strive for 100% accuracy, some of the most common payroll issues employees report include:
- Missing or incorrect hours worked
- Incorrect pay rate or overtime calculation
- Unapplied bonuses, commissions, or differentials
- Incorrect tax withholding
- Benefit deductions that appear incorrect or unexpected
What to Do if You Notice an Issue
If you notice a potential issue with your paycheck, follow these steps:
-
Review Your Pay Stub
Start by reviewing your pay stub or direct deposit statement carefully. Check hours worked, earnings, tax withholdings, and benefit deductions. -
Gather Supporting Information
It helps to have documentation ready, such as timecard records, schedules, or written communications about pay agreements. This can speed up the resolution process. -
Contact Your Manager or Supervisor (If Applicable)
If your issue relates to hours worked or time entry, your supervisor may be able to resolve the issue directly or validate the needed correction. -
Reach Out to HR or Payroll
Submit a ticket or contact the payroll or HR team directly, depending on your organization’s process. Be specific: include your full name, employee ID (if applicable), the pay period in question, and a description of the issue. (Catalog Item : Payroll Correction)
How Payroll Corrections Are Handled
Once we receive your inquiry:
-
We’ll Review the Issue Promptly
Our goal is to confirm and process payroll corrections as quickly as possible, typically within one payroll cycle. More complex issues may require additional time, but we’ll keep you informed along the way. -
You May Receive an Off-Cycle Payment
If the correction results in additional pay owed, we may issue an off-cycle payment (i.e., a special paycheck outside of your normal pay schedule), depending on timing and payroll cutoff dates. -
Any Deductions or Repayments Will Be Discussed
If an overpayment occurred, we’ll work with you to arrange a fair and manageable repayment schedule in compliance with federal and state labor laws.
Preventing Future Issues
We continue to refine our payroll and timekeeping systems, but your vigilance helps too. Here’s how you can help:
- Submit timecards or approve hours on time.
- Review pay stubs regularly.
- Keep HR informed of any changes to your tax status, direct deposit, or benefits.
