You will be paid twice a month, on the 10th and 25th of each month (or the work day closes to these calendar dates) for which you are employed. For work performed between the 16th and the 30th/31st of the month, your paycheck will be issued on the 25th of the same month.

We URGE everyone to sign up for Direct Deposit. The form is now online and can be located under the "Employee Self Service" link in MyUW. If you complete the form, this allows the UW to deposit your salary directly in your bank account. It usually takes two pay cycles (about four weeks) before your direct deposit will go into effect. Click on the "Employee Self Service" link in MyUW to track your earnings.

Until your direct deposit goes into effect, or if you elect not to use direct deposit, you may pick up your paycheck after 10:30 a.m. on payday from the Main Office. Note that you must sign for your check.

See Amy Peloff if you have additional questions about payroll.
