Voluntary Deductions

In addition to the deductions required by law, employees may authorize deductions from their paychecks for: 

  • Banks and credit unions 
  • Savings bonds 
  • The United Way 
  • Recreation fees 

In addition, an employee can opt for: 

  • Group Insurance 
  • Tax-Deferred Savings 
  • Flexible Spending Plans

Payroll deduction covers employee premiums for group insurance programs. In addition, employees who enroll in the optional tax-deferred savings plan or flexible spending plans will have contributions deducted from their pay.

Voluntary deductions to meet other personal financial obligations are not allowed unless they are part of a bank or credit union deduction and include direct deposit of paychecks.
