Purpose:
The purpose of the Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) is to
provide the employee with a biweekly record of earnings, deductions,
and leave information. The LES provides civilian employees with
pertinent and timely information. The form, designated as DFAS
Form 1, is tailored to each employee, that is, only earnings,
deductions, and leave data applicable to the individual employee
will be printed.
Information printed will be textual, eliminating the need
for the employee to refer to pay, deduction, or leave codes.
Remarks based on payroll and personnel actions processed during
the pay period will also print on the LES.
Sort Sequence:
These statements are sorted by Defense Automated Printing Service
Sites, then zip codes. See System Processing number 5 for file
printing sort.
Frequency:
Bi-Weekly. This report is generated at the end of the pay period.
Distribution:
These statements are printed at various Defense Automated Printing
Service Sites then mailed to the employees.
