Human Resources FAQs

When do we get paid?
- Payday is the 15^th and the last day of the month every month (e.g. May 31st). If the 15^th or the last day of the month falls on a weekend, payday is the Friday before the 15^th/last day of month.
I am a new employee. How will I receive my first check?
- Your first paycheck will be available for pickup in the HR office (Americus Campus) on pay day. Please be sure to bring ID with you. If you do not pick your check up on payday or make other arrangements, your check will be mailed to your home address.
How can I view my paycheck and/or update my address/tax information/direct deposit?
- Please visit the Employee Self-Service to review your paycheck and/or update your address/tax information/direct deposit. Please see the staff development given to you during orientation for login information.
Where can I find my employee ID?
- Your employee ID is located on your school ID or your first paycheck stub.
I changed my direct deposit account information. What should I expect?
- Your first check immediately following the change will be a live paycheck available for pickup in the HR office (Americus Campus). Direct deposit changes may take up to two pay cycles for the change to be effective.
There is a problem with my paycheck. Who do I need to contact?
- You should first contact your division dean for clarification and/or help. If they are unable to resolve your concerns, please contact Karen Lewis at klewis@southgatech.edu.
