Statewide Vendors/Products Approved for Payroll Deduction
The Office of State Uniform Payroll is responsible for the administration of the rules governing state employee payroll deductions. Products that are authorized through OSUP are for all state employees and all state agencies of the executive branch of state government as defined under R.S. 36:4. The only exception to this is higher education facilities overseen by a governing board. The governing board has the authority to approve additional products or remove any product per the boards' established policies.
Employees must notify each vendor when there is a change of address.
Statewide vendor deductions that are not taken due to an employee being on LWOP, not being due any wages or not being paid enough wages to take the deduction are the employee's responsibility to pay directly to the vendor. Payments made outside of the payroll system are not pre-taxed.
Employees are encouraged to report in writing to their Employee Administration office any comments they have on vendors and/or vendor agents. Agencies should then forward the written information to OSUP, faxing any additional documentation to 225.219.4432 to support the comment.
Employees also have the right to submit a formal written complaint to the Louisiana Department of Insurance on any insurance agent or insurance company. Visit the Louisiana Department of Insurance website for complete details.
