How Do I Get Paid?
As a participant in the 2010 Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) you are paid through your ADP/VISA debit card (or through your direct deposit account if provided it by the deadline).
If you have not yet received your Visa debit paycard in the mail, or if you still need to activate your paycard, please call the card company directly at 1 (877) 237-4321 or visit www.mycard.adp.com.

Your pay will be automatically added to your VISA debit paycard.
Your pay is based on the timesheet that you have filled out daily and sign at the end of each week. Your supervisor will approve and submit the time directly from these timesheets.
If however you think your pay is not correct, please follow these steps:
Step 1. Double check to see if there really is an error.
Some things with your paycheck might lead you to believe you have a pay problem, but actually it turns out that it is accurate. Before reporting an issue, please be sure to double check that there is really an error. Some of the most common things that can cause confusion include:
-
Forgetting about a holiday (remember Monday, July 5 was a holiday and is not a pay day for most);
-
Pay is not for the most recent 2 weeks. The July 21st pay date is for time worked during Pay Period One (June 28-July 10) only;
-
You will not be compensated for days you did not work or were absent, even if the absence was excused;
-
Taxes are taken out for all wages earned, so you should not expect to receive the total gross pay.
-
You cannot be paid for hours over the limit set for each age group (no more than 20 hours/week for 14-15 year olds; no more than 30/week for 16-21 year olds).
Step 2. Notify Your Supervisor
If after checking those common errors there is a dispute in hours worked or time recorded, you should do the following:
1. Notify your supervisor as soon as possible in order for him/her to address the issue. In order to
record a pay problem you must go to work and report it to your supervisor.
2. Your supervisor will review the timesheets. If he/she finds a problem, your supervisor will notify the
SYEP Office that there is a pay issue and we will immediately work to resolve it.
3. If you and your supervisor disagree, you may call 311 yourself to report the pay problem to SYEP
Staff who will investigate it.
4. The SYEP office will investigate all reported pay disputes by contacting worksite supervisors to
collect information, confirm hours, and determine the resolution.
5. If your pay issue is verified and resolved by your supervisor, any additional funds owed to you will be
added to your SYEP VISA debit card.
6. You will be notified by the SYEP office if additional funds have been added to your card.
