Go green! Opt out of printed pay stubs through myUK!

With a recent enhancement to myUK UK Employee Self-Service (ESS) online, employees may now opt out of receiving printed pay stubs. The same online feature that enables employees to view paystubs online now also includes an "opt out" tool so individuals may choose to no longer receive printed pay stubs - an environmentally friendly option that also saves unnecessary printing costs. With the convenience of ESS online, employees may continue to view current and past pay stubs online, anytime.

To opt out of receiving printed pay stubs:

Start by visiting the Benefits and Payment section of ESS online:

  • After logging in to myUK, click on the "Employee Self-Service" tab at the top of the page.
  • Click on the "Benefits and Payment" sub-navigation link below the Employee Self-Service tab.
  • Click on "Paycheck Inquiry" in the menu at the left of the main screen.
  • Then click on the "Opt Out" check box that appears near the top of the Paycheck Inquiry screen and hit the "Submit" button as shown in the graphic below.

This opt out selection will remain in effect indefinitely, though an individual may opt back in to receive printed pay stubs in the future using the same tool.  For further instructions, see our ESS feature guide here.

Note: The printed pay stub option selected  on date of final payroll processing (in each given pay period) will determine if a pay stub is printed. Please visit the UK Payroll home page for details (scroll down to the Payroll Schedule section of the page).
