During the review of this policy, the department needs to verify that they are following the procedures within this policy. For additional support please reference the Cash Handing and Accounts Receivable Presentation. Please contact Scott Olson at 8785 or olsons2@rdsy.net if you had any questions.
As of January 16th, employees who elected to receive their W-2 via Firefly were able to access their 2023 W-2 document by logging into Firefly>Employee Self Service and clicking on the W-2 form tile.
