Employees request expense reimbursement through Employee Access and the reimbursements will be deposited directly into each employee\u2019s direct deposit bank account used in payroll.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Note: Each employee must submit his\/her own expense reimbursement. \u00a0An assistant cannot submit a reimbursement on behalf of another employee<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
