Pay Deductions and Setoffs

Laws require the College to make deductions from your pay. Deductions are funds taken from your pay for certain things such as federal, state, and local taxes, Workers' Compensation and unemployment compensation. The law also requires the College to deduct Social Security taxes from your pay up to a certain amount called the Social Security "wage base." The College also contributes to your Social Security.

The College also offers programs and benefits to eligible Employees that are not required by law. You may ask us to deduct money from your pay to cover your payment for these programs.

If you want to know why money was deducted from your paycheck or how your pay is calculated, see your Supervisor or the Business Office.
