Your paycheck and earnings statement will look different once UCPath launches. The main changes are that new earnings statements include your new employee ID number, and vacation/sick leave balances will no longer be included on paychecks or earnings statements. You can view your leave balances on the UCPath Center at any time.

As a part of the transition to UCPath, new employee ID numbers are issued to employees to identify them in the UCPath system. This may affect the number that you see on your paycheck and the number that you use for travel and expense reimbursements. Please make a note of the new number, which is found next to your name on your paycheck and in the upper left corner of your UCPath dashboard.
