Employee Self Service: Voluntary Deductions

Employee Self Service:
Voluntary Deductions
Background
GenSERV Employee Self-Service (ESS) creates confidence and efficiency by providing Genesis HealthCare employees
with real-time access to relevant HR data previously only available to them on paper. By having access to this
information employees are now able to review and edit this information when it is most convenient to them.
GenSERV effectively replaces most paper based HR processes with a streamlined online approach. GenSERV

Foundation (GEF) or to the Genesis Political Action Committee (PAC). This job aid provides detailed instructions on
how employees can add, update or delete voluntary deductions.
