Holiday & End of Year Reminders for Orange County Staff
By: Jenna Wedding, Payroll Accountant, Orange County Finance Department
As the holidays and the end of the year approach, it ’ s a good time for Orange County employees to make sure they don ’ t have any loose ends that still need tying. Please see the reminders below and contact the Finance Department if you need assistance.
• Request Annual leave for the Holiday season in advance to receive approval from your Supervisor.
• Review your leave accruals to ensure you don ’ t exceed the maximum limit.
• Use your one day of Personal Leave by December 31 if you haven ’ t already! It is “ use it or lose it ” each calendar year as defined in Personnel Policy 5.1.
• Be mindful of Payroll and Accounts Payable due dates.
• Due to the Christmas holiday, pay day will be Thursday, December 21 instead of that Friday.
• Verify your mailing address in Employee Self Service (ESS) to ensure receipt of your W - 2.
• Think about any withholding changes you may want for tax year 2024. W - 4 updates can be made electronically using ESS.
• (From Human Resources) Mark your calendars for the upcoming Orange County Employee Wellness Expo!
