What is a pay stub and what information does it contain?

My employer gave me access to digital pay stubs but I've never really looked at one closely. What is a pay stub, what information is on it, and why is it important to keep? Are employers legally required to provide pay stubs?
 
A pay stub is a document that shows how your salary is calculated for a pay period. It includes gross pay (total earnings), deductions (taxes, benefits, etc.), and net pay (take-home amount), along with basic employee and pay period details.
