Split Benefits Deductions Coming for Employees Paid Biweekly
For UW–Madison employees who are currently paid biweekly, most deductions for benefits such as health, dental, vision, and life insurance will be split evenly over the first two biweekly paychecks starting with the April 22, 2021 paycheck. UW System will be holding a virtual Town Hall to review this change on Tuesday, Feb. 16 from 2–3 p.m. UW–Madison employees who are affected by this change are encouraged to attend or view the recorded Town Hall later online. Trained representatives are available to answer employee questions and can be reached by phoning 608-265-2257 or by emailing 2021payrollchanges@ohr.wisc.edu. Details, including employee resources and frequently asked questions and answers in multiple languages, are available at hr.wisc.edu/pay/split-benefits-deductions.
