What Is a Check Stub and Why You Might Need It
A check stub (also called a pay stub or paycheck stub) shows the breakdown of your earnings for a pay period — your hours worked, gross pay, deductions, taxes, and your net (take-home) pay. You may need it to verify income for loans, rentals, tax filings, or just to check your payroll details are correct.
Step 1: Visit Staffmark’s Employee Portal
Go to EmployeeWorkplace.com, which is Staffmark’s official portal for employees. You’ll use your email or username and the password you created during onboarding. If you don’t remember your password, use the “Forgot Password” link to reset it.
Step 2: Log In and Find the Payroll / Pay Stub Section
After logging in, look for menu items or tabs like “Pay,” “Pay Stubs,” “Payroll,” or “Payment History.” That’s where Staffmark stores your check stubs. Click that section to see a list of available pay periods.
Step 3: Select the Pay Period You Want
Scroll through your pay history to find the specific pay period for which you want a stub. Click or tap on that period to open the detailed stub view. It will include your hours, pay rate, deductions, and net pay.
Step 4: Download or Print the Check Stub
Once you open the stub, you should see options like “Download PDF” or “Print.” Choose the option that works best. Saving a PDF is good for backup, while printing is useful if you need a physical copy for official purposes.
Step 5: If You’re a Former Employee
If you no longer work with Staffmark, you often still can access past pay stubs through the employee portal if your login is still active. If it isn’t, contact Staffmark’s HR or payroll department and request the stub for the period(s) you need. Be ready with your name, employee or associate ID, and which pay period you want.
Troubleshooting & Helpful Tips
- If login fails, double-check your username/email and try resetting the password.
- If pay stubs aren’t visible, make sure you’re using the correct portal or account type (current vs. former employee).
- If the portal doesn’t work well in a browser, try a different browser or device, or use the mobile app if available.
- If something seems incorrect on your stub (wrong hours, missing deductions), contact payroll or HR to ask for a correction.
Conclusion
Getting your check stub from Staffmark is fairly easy once you know the system: log in to Employee Workplace, navigate to the pay or payroll section, select your desired pay period, and download or print the stub. Keep your records safe as these are helpful for taxes, verification, or financial planning.
