Did You Know:  Did you know that you might be missing out on some great benefits if you're still receiving your paycheck via mail? 

This is the perfect time to switch to direct deposit and go paperless. Doing so can save time and money and help the environment. Here's how to do it:

  1. Log in to UCPath and select Employee Actions > Income and Taxes.
  2. Click on Direct Deposit and complete the necessary security checks.
  3. Follow the instructions to enroll. Detailed guidelines are available on Sharepoint after signing in.

Making the switch is beneficial for several reasons:

    • Direct deposit is more convenient, secure, and cost-effective than paper checks.
    • It saves employees time and money, ensuring immediate access to funds on payday.
    • It eliminates the need for paper checks, reducing costs for employers and the risk of identity theft for employees.
    • Direct deposit is more sustainable, as it helps preserve natural resources by reducing paper waste and transportation needs.
