Changes to Payslip Earning Details for Exempt Employees
Effective Jan. 1, 2025, benefits-eligible exempt employees will see a minor change in the formatting and recording of time-off/absence hours that are displayed on their pay statements. Previously, all time-off/absence hours were listed on payslips; going forward, these hours will continue to be paid but will no longer be displayed. This change will allow for more efficient and accurate payroll processing.
While this change will affect how different earnings (hours) are reflected on your payslip, your gross pay and PTO accrual rate will not be impacted.
Time off and absence details will continue to be viewable by following these steps: (1) Log into Workday, (2) from the Menu dropdown (upper left corner), select “Absence,” (3) click “My Absence” under View, and (4) review the time-off hours that were submitted.
A list of frequently asked questions is available below. For additional questions about changes to the exempt pay statements, please email payroll@wfu.edu.
