FAQs about Paystubs

If you can see the Paystubs app when you log in, just click on the app to review current and past paystubs with net pay, deductions, and contributions. You'll have the option to download a paystub as a PDF if you'd like to print or send.

If you can't see the Paystubs app, Zenefits does not have your paystubs. Please contact your manager or HR administrator to get a copy or your paystubs.

Your paystub in Zenefits is available via the Paystubs card on your dashboard. To learn more about what is on your paystub, also called an Earnings Statement, keep reading.

  • Any custom earnings (bonuses, vacation, holiday, etc)

FAQs

Why don't I see the Paystubs card on my Zenefits account?
If you don't see the Paystubs card on your account, check with your company's HR contact. If your company does not use Zenefits to run payroll, your paystubs wouldn't be housed in this system.

What's the difference between Amount and Year to Date?
The Amount column will show how much is being paid for the pay period detailed on the paystub. The Year to Date column will reflect how much has been paid thus far in the calendar year.

Why does it say Net Pay? 
Net Pay is the amount you take home, after taxes. Gross Pay is the amount before any taxes or deductions are taken out- this can be found on the Total line under Earnings

What if something is incorrect on my paystub?
If you feel that something is incorrect, such as the amount of hours you worked, or the rate on your earnings, contact the HR representative for your company. 

Wow, I didn't expect my insurance deductions to be so much. Can I remove them?
You'll have an opportunity to make changes to your insurance elections at your company's next open enrollment period, or if you experience a qualifying life event.
