Employee Self Service
Current employees can access paycheck history, W2s, view leave balances, and much more through the Employee Self Service (ESS). Employee leave requests and timekeeping is done through ESS, unless you are a Police or Fire employee whose time is recorded through a separate system. If you have questions about accessing ESS as a new employee, contact your supervisor or HR.
