JCPS EMPLOYEE SELF SERVICE (ESS)


ESS LOGIN INSTRUCTIONS
Active employees will use your JCPS network username which you currently use to login to other JCPS systems such as your JCPS computer, Infinite Campus and/or PD Central. For example, the JCPS network username for someone named John Doe would look something like jdoe1. Your current password for ESS will remain the same.

If you do not know your JCPS network username or password, or if you are an inactive employee, please visit the JCPS Password Reset site at jcps.me/password. After a successful reset, your JCPS username will be provided to you. For technical assistance with logging on to the Employee Self Service (ESS) website, please contact the JCPS Technology Care Center at (502) 485-3552.

EMPLOYEE MAILING ADDRESSES
The JCPS Payroll Department would like to remind employees that it is extremely important to keep their home address current on their employee record. This ensures that you will receive correspondence sent via US Mail in a timely manner. Please review your address on your paystub.

IMPORTANT: Updating employee addresses in Infinite Campus or at their work location will not update the employee’s address in Munis. Therefore, please be sure all employee address changes are sent to emprelations@jefferson.kyschools.us for processing.

To change your address, please complete the Address/Name Change Form and email the completed form to emprelations@jefferson.kyschools.us for processing.

SUMMER PAY DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION
The option to receive summer escrow paychecks every two weeks throughout the summer months has been discontinued effective this year. If you are a full-time less than 260-day employee, you will receive your summer escrow paychecks on the same pay date at the end of the school year (based on your employee working calendar).

Summer escrow will still be processed as separate paychecks which will be direct deposited to your bank account as follows:
  • If your work calendar ends on or before 6/7/24, summer escrow paychecks will be deposited on 6/21/24.
  • If your work calendar ends between 6/8/24 – 6/21/24, summer escrow paychecks will be deposited on 7/5/24.

    • Receiving your summer escrow paychecks on the same pay date does not have any impact on your pay, taxes or withholdings. All deductions will be withheld and remitted as normal. This includes taxes, benefit deductions, Class Act credit union, child support and all other voluntary and non-voluntary deductions.
