Payroll
Our payroll is completed using the Banner HRIS software. Banner payroll features are reflective of the diverse population of employees representing all position types, as well as many countries of residency or citizenship. We are committed to quality customer service and processing our payroll accurately and on time in compliance with federal and state regulations.
Western Oregon University processes payroll once per month, issuing paychecks on the last business day of the month.
There may be times when the need to issue wages via a paper check is necessary, due to late paperwork or documentation. All paper paychecks are to be picked up at the Human Resources Office, on the third floor of the Administration Building. If a paper check is not picked up within 14 days of email notification, the check will be mailed to the employee’s address.
Please make sure that any change of address is updated with the Human Resources Office to avoid not receiving your paycheck or W-2. Employee’s may also update their payroll address via WolfWeb via the Employee Menu.
Payroll Documents can all be located at the bottom of the page.
