Policy
The law requires that Loyola University New Orleans make certain deductions from every employee’s compensation. Among these are applicable federal and state income taxes. Loyola University also must deduct Social Security and Medicare taxes on each employee’s earnings unless the employee provides visa documentation which indicates partial or full tax totalization agreement. Loyola University matches the amount of Social Security/Medicare taxes paid by each employee.
Loyola University offers programs and benefits beyond those required by law. Eligible employees may voluntarily authorize deductions from their paychecks to cover the costs of participation in these programs.
Procedure
If you have questions concerning why deductions were made from your paycheck or how they were calculated, a payroll or benefits representative in the Human Resources Department can assist you.
