First, check Self-Service Banner to see if a paycheck was issued. If yes, check with your bank to see if the direct deposit has been processed.
Next, contact the department that you performed the work for to see that all paperwork (PAF, timesheet, etc.) has been completed and submitted. If so, please check with the Payroll office to determine the source of the problem. The Payroll office must run payroll several days in advance of the actual pay date and slow paperwork often means a delay in payment.
Some common reasons for not receiving a paycheck when one is anticipated are:
The phone number for the Payroll Office is (409) 880-8000.
The Payroll Department provides paychecks to employees on either Monthly or Bi-Weekly Payroll Dates. Specific pay dates are provided on the Financial Services/Payroll web page.
Electronic versions of your Paycheck Stub, 1095C, and W-2 are available under the "Employee" tab in Self-Service Banner via . Visit IT Help and Support or contact the Service Desk at ext. 2222, if you do not have login access.
Steps for getting the pay documents:
Personnel Action Forms (F3.2s) authorize payroll transactions. Payroll checks will not be generated without a properly completed PAF for the individual, despite preparation of time sheets and/or leave reports.
The PAFs must be received in the Payroll Office by 5 p.m. on the second working day after the end of the pay period to be activated for the next payroll date. PAFs received after this date will be processed in the subsequent payroll period.
The approximate processing time for a PAF, from departmental origination to entry into the payroll system is 10 days.
Timesheets and/or leave reports received by the indicated due date will be processed for the next applicable payroll period. The due date is 5 p.m. on the second working day after the end of the pay period.
Timesheets and/or leave reports that are received in the Payroll Office after the due date will be processed for the next payroll period.
All positions in the classified service are assigned to a class of positions that should reflect accurately and currently the duties, responsibilities, qualifications, and other work requirements of all positions within the class.
Each class involves substantially the same kind and level of work in terms of complexity and responsibility as well as comparable educational and experience requirements. Titles assigned to each class of positions are descriptive of the nature of the work performed by the positions within that class.
The official position title is used for all HR-related records; however, for internal purposes, departments may use a functional or working title.
A promotion occurs when a current employee is selected as the successful candidate for a posted vacancy that is at a higher grade than the employee’s previous position.
A classification review is a formal study of the duties and responsibilities that comprise a position, taking into consideration the nature and level of work performed and the specifications required for an incumbent to perform the job completely.
A reclassification occurs when the job duties and/or required qualifications of a position are re-evaluated and the position is assigned a new classification.
The change in job duties, essential functions and/or qualifications of the position should be sufficient to warrant a study by HR. A position that is reevaluated may be assigned a new title and be classified at a lower or higher grade and salary range.
Please refer to 91自拍论坛 Human Resources Policies for more information regarding classification changes.
The Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) determines whether employees are subject to or exempt from overtime provisions.
If employees are determined to be serving in a non-exempt position, overtime pay or compensatory time must be provided for working more than 40 hours in a defined workweek (Saturday 12:01 a.m. until Friday 12:00 midnight).
When non-exempt employees work over 40 hours during their scheduled workweek, they are entitled to time-and-a-half pay or compensatory time calculated at time-and-a-half for all hours actually worked in excess of 40 hours. All overtime for non-exempt employees should be approved in advance by their supervisor.

Market adjustments should be presented during the annual budget preparation process in ample time to be included in the next fiscal year's budget. Adjustments must not be retroactive.
