A pay stub should clearly show the details of an employee’s earnings and deductions for each pay period. When creating a pay stub with SecurePayStubs, make sure the following information is included:
- Employer Information – Enter your company details including company name, address, city, state, ZIP, email, and paystub template. You may also add EIN, phone, and company logo (optional).
- Employee Information – Enter the employee or contractor details including type (employee/contractor), full name, last 4 digits of SSN, address (street, city, state, ZIP), and Employee ID (optional).
- Pay Period Details – Pay period start and end dates, payday, and pay schedule.
- Earnings – Gross pay, hourly rate or salary, hours worked, and additional earnings like overtime, tips, or bonuses.
- Deductions – Federal, state, and local taxes, Social Security (FICA), Medicare, and other withholdings (retirement, insurance, garnishments).
- Net Pay – Final take-home pay after all deductions.
- Year-to-Date (YTD) – Totals for earnings, deductions, and net pay.
Pay stubs with these details keep payroll accurate, transparent, and compliant with regulations. SecurePayStubs automatically includes all these fields, so your documents are always complete and professional.
