WICOMICO COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS CONTRACTUAL EMPLOYEE’S GUIDE PAYROLL PROCEDURES Income Tax Statement Federal and State tax laws require the employer to withhold from an employee’s salary an amount specified in accordance with place of residence and number of exemptions claimed on the employee’s withholding forms. The Finance Office will send each employee a statement of the amount of taxes withheld during the previous year (W2 form) by January 31. Requests for duplicate copies of your W2 must be made using the “Request for Duplicate Form W-2" form available from the Payroll department. Each duplicate copy requested will cost the employee $10.00. Garnishments Statement Wicomico County Public Schools expects each employee to handle his personal financial affairs satisfactorily. When served by the courts, WCPS will comply with the terms of the garnishment against an employee's salary to insure liquidation of specified debts, especially delinquent taxes. Pay Dates Contractual employees will be paid twice per month. Pay dates are the closest working day to the 15th of each month and the last working day of each month. Seasonal employees (coaches, club advisors, etc.) will be paid once per season. Social security, state and federal withholding forms and employee payroll information reports must be completed and submitted to the Human Resources department before an employee's name will be added to the payroll listings. Any changes in salary or employment status must be approved by the Director of Human Resources. SEPARATION FROM EMPLOYMENT Failure to Report to Work Statement Any employee who fails to report to his assigned duty station for three (3) or more duty days without notice to his immediate supervisor shall immediately forfeit his employment rights and shall be deemed to have voluntarily quit his job at the end of the last workday during which he worked without good cause related to his employment. Such employee shall be excluded from subsequent employment with the Wicomico County Public Schools unless approved by the Director of Human Resources. In most instances where the employee quits without proper notice, it will not be possible for that employee to receive his paycheck on the next regular pay date. Since adjustments will necessarily have to be made in the employee's regular amount of pay, said adjustments will be made in the payroll following his next regular pay date. Notice of Resignation Any employee of the Wicomico County Public Schools is expected to give notice of at least ten (10) working days prior to his resignation. Such notice must be in written form and carry the signature of the employee. The employee will not be deemed to have met the requirements of this policy until said written notification of termination is delivered to the employee's immediate supervisor or the Director of Human Resources.
