Process for Docking Pay

Employees who are away without approved leave on May 21 and 22, 2013 should not be paid. In the event of a strike, departments do not need to wait until the employee submits a signed time sheet to process a pay reduction. Because of the payroll deadlines it is important that any pay reduction actions be submitted by May 22, 2013. The following procedure for implementing pay docking actions has been provided by Campus Payroll.

Payroll Docking Procedure:

If, as a result of the strike on May 21 and 22, 2013, a department needs to dock the pay of an Exception-time paid employee, the department should follow normal OPTRS procedures as detailed on the Payroll website  (PDF). Human Resources has requested that OPTRS users use the "Per End" date (#7 on EDLR reference card) when processing the RX transaction(s). This will enable HR to track the specific deductions pertaining to the strike. Should OPTRS users have any questions, please contact the Payroll Pay Production Unit at 2-1336, option 4.
