The staff of Oregon Statewide Payroll Services (OSPS) is committed to ongoing training for new and existing agency payroll staff.

OSPS offers formal training in a classroom setting on various topics each month. We post classroom material to our website after each training.

We also offer quarterly OSPS Payroll User Forums on timely issues, training on new procedures, or topics suggested by our customer base.

OSPS publishes a monthly newsletter highlighting various tips & tricks for working in OSPA, as well as selected highlights from the past month's e-news broadcasts.

The OSPS Processing Calendar contains the full range of available training dates.

In April, an internal agency audit of employee time sheets uncovers an instance where a salaried full-time employee was overpaid by 10 hours of overtime in October of last year. How do you recover this money from the employee, and what calculation is necessary? (hint: it's not an OSPA entry)

"Help! I need to find..." The OSPS Help Desk gets many questions like this via phone, fax, and e-mail.

In the interest of good customer service, we are providing you a list of places to begin researching the answer to your non-OSPA-related questions.

Here is a partial list. Please feel free to suggest others.
