Pay Administration


Western Kentucky University supports compensation policies and programs that reflect the value of job duties and responsibilities while complying with state and federal compensation laws.

Pay Administration Guidelines serve as the standard for managing wages under the University’s compensation programs for faculty and staff. The program has been designed to provide competitive, fair, and equitable compensation to attract, retain, and engage qualified employees.

To view the payroll schedules for the current year, please visit the Payroll Office website.

Employees set-up direct deposit information during the HR Registration process. If you would like to change your direct deposit information, please complete the Direct Deposit Authorization Form and submit to the Payroll Office.

Faculty and staff can access their current and past pay stubs, view their direct deposit allocation, earnings and deductions history, or make changes to their tax withholding by visiting TopNet.

Every faculty and staff position has a select pay band based on required knowledge, skills, and abilities, Western Kentucky University benchmarks, and the level of responsibility consistent with other University positions.

Working remotely, or telecommuting, allows employees to work at home, on the road or in a satellite location for all or part of their workweek. WKU considers telecommuting to be a viable, flexible work option when both the employee and the job are suited to such an arrangement. Telecommuting may be appropriate for some employees and jobs but not for others.  Staff should partner with their Supervisor regarding remote work for their specific role.  Decisions regarding telecommuting options are made on a case-by-case basis.
