Coronavirus Update

by Nancy Hopkins | Aug 24, 2020 | Employee Information

On May 12, there were 4,014 new cases of COVID-19 reported in Illinois. Cases in August have fluctuated between 1,639 and 2,295, about half of the peak. At Dudek & Bock we have had 5 employees test positive. We appreciate our employees’ cooperation in wearing masks and distancing from co-workers. We are fortunate that our workplace is large and dispersed, which makes close contact less likely. We are very fortunate that infected employees have recovered, and most had mild or no symptoms.

Early in the pandemic we began paying a bonus for those employees who were working on-site. Based on the current situation, we will be reducing the amount of the bonus to $10 per day, effective on 8/31/2020.

Sign up for Paperless Pay Statements

by Nancy Hopkins | Aug 22, 2020 | Employee Information

There is a cost to the company to have ADP print paper statements. Now that everyone is on direct deposit, we would like you to receive pay statements via the ADP Mobile app.

If you have not yet signed up for the mobile app please do so by downloading the app to your smart phone. To sign up, follow the prompts on the screen. You will need your social security number and your name as it appears on your check to set up the account. You are NOT giving ADP your social security number. They already have it. If you are using a WiFi connection at home, it is safe.

If you already have the mobile app: Go to Dashboard>Myself>Pay. Under Additional Benefits>Go Paperless and sign up to receive your statements through the app. Help us save money and trees.
