Utah paystub law

What Utah law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Utah Code § 34-28-3 requires every employer to provide each employee with a statement of wages and deductions for each pay period. The Utah Labor Commission's Antidiscrimination and Labor Division enforces wage-payment violations. Paydays must be at least semi-monthly for most workers. Utah has a flat 4.55% state income tax that appears on most stubs.

Using a Utah paystub for proof of income

Salt Lake City's rental market has tightened with tech-driven population growth in the Silicon Slopes corridor — landlords typically require 3× rent gross + 30 days of stubs. Tech employees at Adobe, Qualtrics, Domo, and others produce standardized institutional paystubs. Mining workers in central and southwestern Utah (copper, beryllium) often have rotational pay similar to oilfield workers. Tourism workers in Park City, Moab, and Zion-adjacent areas have strongly seasonal income; landlords there often accept multi-month stub history.
