Faculty, Professional & Administrative Staff Payroll

All employees are paid on a bi-weekly basis via direct deposit to your bank account on the Friday of pay week.

New Employees:

New employees require a letter of offer, which should be signed and returned to their supervisor.

The supervisor will forward this information, along with the completed New Hire and Payroll Request Forms (available on the forms page) to the Human Resources department for processing.

All information on the form must be completed.

• Home addresses are required for mailing T4 slips at year end.
• Social Insurance Numbers help Payroll identify you properly in the event that there is more than one person with the same name.
• The rest of the information required must be completed by the department-head authorizing payment ie. charge number, hours worked, dates worked, hourly rate, authorized signature and date.

All New Hire Forms and/or Payroll Request Forms indicated changes to current employee pay information must be submitted by 4:30 on the Tuesday, the week BEFORE the pay day.

New employees should make an appointment with the Human Resources department to complete the necessary payroll and benefit forms by calling (902) 867-2466 (see Employment Benefits below).

All employees are required to have a valid Social Insurance Number.

Information concerning application requirements for a Social Insurance Number is available on the Human Resources and Skills Development Canada website.

Changes to Existing Payroll Information:

All changes to existing Payroll and HR information such as salary, hours worked per week, job title etc., require a Payroll Request form to be submitted to the Human Resources department by 4:30 on the Tuesday, the week BEFORE the pay day.

If employees need to change your tax status, direct deposit account information, etc., you must submit a completed Payroll Request Form (available on the forms page) to the Human Resources department by 4:30 on the Tuesday, the week BEFORE the pay day.

Forms can either be sent via inter-campus mail or dropped off at the payroll office. Faxed copies will not be accepted.
