If you are a former McKesson employee searching for your W-2 tax form, you may still be able to retrieve it online through the company’s Workday Self-Service portal, provided your Workday account remains active after your employment ends. During the offboarding process, your Single Sign-On (SSO) access is typically revoked, but McKesson generally provides separate Workday credentials that allow eligible former employees to continue accessing certain employment records, including year-end tax documents. This guide explains how to access your McKesson W-2 online, what to do if you can no longer sign in, and where to seek assistance if you encounter difficulties.
About McKesson
McKesson Corporation is one of the largest healthcare services and pharmaceutical distribution companies in North America. Headquartered in Irving, Texas, the Fortune 10 organization supports healthcare providers, pharmacies, manufacturers, and government agencies by delivering pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, healthcare technology, and logistics solutions. Every day, McKesson helps improve patient access to healthcare while employing tens of thousands of professionals across the United States and internationally.
Can Former McKesson Employees Access Their W-2 Online?
Yes—but only for a limited period.
Following separation from the company, former employees generally retain access to their Workday account for a specified timeframe. If your W-2 has already been published while your Workday access remains active, you can download and print it directly from the Workday portal.
Once your Workday access expires, electronic access is typically removed, and you must obtain your tax documents through McKesson Payroll or Human Resources.
Additionally, McKesson generally mails paper W-2 forms to former employees’ last recorded home address no later than January 31, in accordance with IRS requirements.

- Your corporate SSO credentials are deactivated.
- You receive dedicated Workday login credentials by email.
