Tempus Unlimited, established initially as Cerebral Palsy of the South Shore in 1950, is an agency dedicated to supporting individuals with disabilities in leading independent and fulfilling lives. Originating from a group of parents on the South Shore, the agency began by offering limited therapeutic services for children with Cerebral Palsy. Over the years, it expanded its scope, introducing programs such as the first nursery program in Massachusetts for children with Cerebral Palsy in 1960 and initiating services to promote independent living for adults. In 2016, reflecting its broader mission to provide opportunities for all disabilities, the organization was renamed Tempus Unlimited, with “Tempus” signifying “opportunity” and “time” in Latin. Despite challenges like the 2020 pandemic, Tempus Unlimited has continued to evolve, securing contracts as a Fiscal Intermediary in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania in 2022. The organization stands as a beacon of support, advocating for the inclusion of people with disabilities in mainstream society. This article delves into the methods for retrieving your pay stubs, and W2 forms online if you are an employee at Tempus Unlimited.
Accessing Pay Stubs and W-2s from Tempus Unlimited
For employees of Tempus Unlimited, accessing their pay stubs and W-2s has been made simple and secure with the Employee Self-Service (ESS) portal. Tempus Unlimited provides a user-friendly online system, the Employee Self-Service (ESS) portal, which allows you to view and print these vital documents easily.
Why Access Online?
Employees who have opted for Electronic W-2 Consent can easily view and print their documents from the ESS portal. For those who haven’t, the traditional method of mailing the W-2 forms will be observed. It’s worth noting that regardless of the number of roles or assignments you’ve had with Tempus Unlimited, you’ll receive just one consolidated W-2 form.
What You Need to Know:
Electronic Access vs. Mailed Copies: If you’ve agreed to Electronic W-2 Consent, your W2s will be readily available on the ESS website as soon as they are processed. However, if you didn’t provide this consent, don’t worry! Your paper W-2 will be mailed out to you no later than January 31st of the following taxable year. It’s worth noting that each employee will receive only one W-2, even if they’ve held multiple roles or positions.
Device Requirements: Two devices are recommended when registering on the ESS portal. While the primary device will be used for registration, the second one will be useful for scanning a QR code using Google Authenticator. This 2-step process ensures maximum security for your payroll data.
The Steps to Access:
- Portal Access: Depending on your employment type, head to the appropriate Employee Self-Service portal from the following:
- Tempus PA: https://p5.tempusunlimited.org
- Current PCA: https://p4.tempusunlimited.org
- Overtime & Travel: https://p3.tempusunlimited.org
- Northeast Arc: https://p2.tempusunlimited.org
- Login Details: On the portal, enter your unique details, such as company selection, username (employee ID/unique ID/consumer ID), and password. First-time users should use the last four digits of their SSN and their birthday in MMDDYYYY format as their default password.
- Password Reset: If it’s your first login, you’ll be prompted to update your password. Ensure your new password meets the required criteria: 12-24 characters, with a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and at least 01 special symbol.
- Two-Factor Authentication: You must set up Two-Factor Authentication for added security. Download the Google Authenticator app from your phone’s app store. With it, scan the QR code displayed on the ESS portal. The app will then create a code that you need to input on the ESS portal.
- Accessing Pay Stubs: Select the “Checks” menu once logged in. Click the arrow next to your Employee ID/Consumer Number from there. This will display all your checks. Click the View/Print link to view or print your desired pay stub.
- Accessing W2 Forms: Click on the W-2s menu and provide your electronic delivery consent. After providing electronic delivery consent, you can view or print your W-2 form by clicking the “View/Print” link.
