Introduction
Walgreens provides its employees with an online portal called People Central that lets you view payroll details, manage personal information, and access pay stubs. Whether you’re new or have been working there for a while, this guide will walk you through the steps to access your pay stub securely using People Central.
Step 1: Log In to People Central
Begin by going to the People Central portal. Use your Walgreens OneID (employee ID) and password to log in. If you're using a device you haven’t used before, you might be asked for additional verification to confirm it’s you. Make sure your login information is ready and secure.
Step 2: Find the Payroll or Payment Information Section
Once logged in, look for a menu or navigation option that says “Payroll Information,” “Payment Information,” or similar. There is usually a drop-down menu or tab that includes “Payroll,” “W-2 / Tax Forms,” or “Pay Statements.” This is where you will find your pay stub links.
Step 3: View or Download Your Pay Stub
In the payroll section, click on “Payment Summary” or “Pay Stubs.” You will see options to select specific pay periods. Choose the period you wish to view, then download or view the pay stub. If you need to, you can print it for your records or verify earnings and deductions.
Step 4: Access Tax Forms
The same area in People Central often provides access to tax documents such as W-2 or W-4 forms. If needed, you can retrieve those as well, especially during tax season. Make sure to check the “Online Tax Forms” section if your payroll section offers it.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
- If you can’t log in, double-check your OneID and password, and make sure you’ve completed any first-time account setup or verification steps.
- If you don’t see certain pay periods listed, it could be because payroll hasn’t processed them yet or your profile isn’t fully activated.
- If your pin or verification fails, contact Walgreens HR or support to reset it.
- If the layout looks confusing, look for help or guide documents in the portal—they often include tips or walkthroughs for navigating.
Tips for Keeping Your Records
- Download each pay stub after every pay period, so you build an ongoing record.
- Keep both digital and printed copies in case you need physical proof for rental, taxes, or employment verification.
- Verify that your gross pay, hours, deductions, and net pay are correctly listed on the stub. If something looks off, raise it quickly with payroll.
- Store copies securely—password-protected folders or secure cloud storage helps protect your information.
Conclusion
Getting your Walgreens pay stub via the People Central portal is a manageable process: log in with your credentials, navigate to Payroll / Payment Information, choose your pay period, and download or view your stub. By keeping copies and reviewing details regularly, you ensure your pay is accurate and your financial records stay organized.
