Getting Paid
The University of Arkansas is committed to utilizing paperless payroll processes for safety and efficiency and to support sustainability. Direct deposit is the standard method by which the University pays employees. You may have your pay deposited in up to six separate accounts.
You will be paid monthly, on the last work day of each month, unless you are an extra-help hourly employee. Extra-help hourly employees are paid on the 10th and 25th of each month.
Approximately three days before pay day you will receive an e-mail indicating your gross pay, deductions, and the net pay that will be deposited to your accounts. You can also find this information on webBasis. For benefits-eligible employees, this will also provide information on your and the University's payments for benefits and levels of benefits coverage as well as detailed information on leave usage.
webBasis also has self-service features that allow you to change your federal and state income tax withholding options, manage your accounts established for direct deposit payments, browse your pay activity, and produce simulated earnings statements for future pay by playing 'what if' games with your taxing and benefit options.
