Let’s discuss how PetSmart employees access their pay stubs and tax forms.
How to Access PetSmart Pay Stubs
PetSmart employees can easily access their pay stubs through the HR Connect portal, which utilizes Okta Single Sign-On for secure access. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help employees navigate the process:
Setting Up Your Account
Initiate Login:
- Go to the HR Connect portal by clicking on Log on to HR Connect or visiting directly at https://petsmart.okta.com/login/default.
User ID:
- If you have a PetSmart user ID that includes your name (e.g., ASmith), use this as your HR Connect user ID.
- If you don’t have a user-specific ID, use your associate or discount number as the HR Connect user ID, which can be obtained from your manager (e.g., 123456).
Password:
- For user IDs including your name, use your current Windows/AD password.
- For others, use your EPIN, which is the same as your discount PIN used in stores.
New Password Setup:
Upon first login, you’ll be prompted to change your password. Ensure the new password meets the following criteria:
- Minimum of 8 characters.
- At least one uppercase – lowercase letter, and one number.
- It cannot contain parts of your user ID or any three consecutive identical characters.
- It cannot start with “?” or “!”.
Additional Security Setup
Security Enhancements:
- You will be asked to enter a mobile number and a secondary email during your account setup. These are optional but recommended to facilitate password resets independently.
- Set up a security question and answer, which will be used for all self-service requests in the future.
Finalize Account Creation:
- Click the “Create My Account” to complete the setup process.
Accessing Your Pay Stubs
Dashboard Navigation:
- After logging in, go to the dashboard and click on the “Pay” menu to access and download your pay stubs.
