  • The payroll/taxes section updates after each month’s payday

  • Leaves are updated as they are entered into the Escape system. There may be a difference between Absence Management and the portal due to upload time and modifications.

  • The only changes that can be requested on the portal at this time is Tax Withholding

  • It displays leaves 12 months from the current date.

    Lockout information

  • If the wrong login information is entered multiple times, the account will be locked for 5 minutes, you will receive an email confirming this. If wrong information is entered during the lockout, the 5 minute timer resets. Once the time is up, you can login with the same password. If you can’t remember your password, click on “Forgot your password” and fill out the required fields. Reminder that data must match what is in Escape System. The phone number must be the one you gave Human Resources as your "Home" phone number. If something needs to be changed, contact Human Resources.

  • If you terminate employment with the district and return later on, you will have to complete registration again if your old login info or "forgot your password" does not work.

  • Personal Necessity is tracked separately. However, it is part of your sick leave balance.When you use Personal Necessity, we have to track the amount to make sure employees do not go over the allowable maximum per Collective Bargaining Agreements, the dock actually comes off your sick leave balance.

Example: 3/9/2018 Sick Balance 100 hours

                3/9/2018 dock PN -8.00 hours (tracks hours used)

                3/9/2018 dock Sick -8.00 hours (docks sick leave balance)

                New Sick Leave Balance 92 hours.

  • If a tax withholding change was entered in error, contact your payroll technician to deny the change. If the change is already approved, submit another change to override it as long as payroll is not closed for the current month - Example below

  • Once you submit a tax withholding change on the portal you will receive the following email:

You have requested the below Federal Tax withholding changes. Your request has been delivered to the human resources/payroll department. When approved/denied you will receive a follow-up email.

If you submit tax withholding changes after the 15th of the month, it may not be effective for that current month payroll. Make sure to look for the email confirming that it has been applied.
