Direct Deposit and Electronic Salary Statement Information
Direct Deposit
The Commonwealth of Kentucky utilizes direct deposit to deliver payroll. It is a convenient, reliable, cost and time saving alternative to issuing paper checks. It eliminates the need to pick-up and cash a check on pay day and instead provides access to funds immediately upon deposit.
Options for enrolling in direct deposit include use of:
-
A
personal checking/savings account at a financial institution of your choice, or
-
A
payroll card.

Electronic Salary Statement
The Employee Self-Service (ESS) feature of the Kentucky Human Resources Information System (KHRIS), gives access to an electronic salary statement (check stub). All salary statements since KHRIS Go-Live (March 2011) are stored here and are accessible at any time*. They can be viewed, saved and printed through ESS.
