Pay Bulletins

As we approach the end of the 2019-2020 fiscal year, there are important leave-related activities that employees and managers must action and keep note of:

• All requests for the 2019-2020 fiscal year in myEMS (PeopleSoft) must be submitted as soon as possible.
  • For employees whose files have not yet been activated due to a transfer of departments, both the employee and their manager are responsible to complete all leave requests using the GC-178 form.
  • For employees whose files have been activated, but who do not currently have access to myEMS (PeopleSoft), it is the manager’s responsibility to ensure that all leave requests are entered on behalf of the employee in myEMS (PeopleSoft).
  • For more information, follow the appropriate instructions found in the Glossary on the Compensation iService page or visit the PSGuide – myEMS (PeopleSoft) page.
• Managers must ensure that all pending myEMS (PeopleSoft) leave requests have been approved or rejected by close of business on Wednesday, April 1, 2020. All pending requests will be automatically approved by the system.
• All pending “Submit for deletion” leave requests must be approved or rejected by close of business Wednesday, April 1, 2020. Failing to do so will have “Deletion leave” requests automatically refused/declined by the system.
• In preparation for the new fiscal year, myEMS (PeopleSoft) will not be available between Friday, April 3, 2020, 8:00 p.m. EST and Monday, April 6, 2020, 8:00 a.m. EST. Should a leave request arise during the blackout period, employees must complete the GC-178 form and submit it to their managers. The manager should then retain this form until myEMS (PeopleSoft) becomes available on Monday, April 6, 2020.
• Employees should print off their leave balances report by close of business Wednesday, April 1, 2020.
