The Payroll Process
An employee's pay begins with a PHRST record created by HR. For pension-covered employees, the HR record flows to the benefits part of PHRST, then to payroll. The PHRST system has a time-restricted update mode for each bi-weekly pay. Employees with active direct deposit accounts can view their upcoming pay the Wednesday before the payday. Each Monday and Tuesday before the payday, Red Clay's HR/BA/PR team is in view-only mode and cannot perform any data entry. During holiday weeks, mass updates of employees' salaries, and PHRST software updates our timeline is decreased. When Wednesday comes, we are ready to update in PHRST for another pay day!
