Questions
What's the Difference Between Biweekly and Semi-Monthly?
Biweekly is every other week on the same weekday, so 26 paydays a year (and three in two months of most years). Semi-monthly is twice a month on set dates, such as the 1st and 15th, so 24 paydays a year.
What Does a Payday Cover?
Usually the time up to a day or more before it, so there's time to approve hours and send payment. With paydays on the 1st and 15th covering through the day before, the 15th pays for the 1st through 14th.
What Happens When Payday Falls on a Weekend?
Most teams pay the next business day; some pay the business day before. Paying early can mean paying for days that haven't been worked or approved yet.
