Popular Post petitepedal ★ Posted February 27, 2021 Popular Post Share #1 Posted February 27, 2021 Just before I left work yesterday I got notified that our pay schedule is going from twice a month (24) to every 2 weeks (26l...as of 4/1...to accomplish this..we will have a short check at the end of March... So how will this screw up my present accounting ...I think I will have to re-schedule my transfers to savings On the plus side I get a raise in March..and who knows..maybe a second raise once my job gets updated to take over some of the things the marketing person did. At age 79 her last day of work is March 31..a real estate company will take over our marketing and sales. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeman564™ Posted February 27, 2021 Share #2 Posted February 27, 2021 The company I'm at has always paid weekly. I thought that was rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphie ★ Posted February 27, 2021 Share #3 Posted February 27, 2021 15th and 1st works well for me. We used to be every two weeks ages ago but this is more predictable and easy to deal with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingstar Posted February 27, 2021 Share #4 Posted February 27, 2021 Paid in 2 wk. cycles...the dates aren't the same each yr. since calendar changes. Less work for accounting dept. and HR with employee inquiries if something was not auto-calculated right. Being in public sector might be some thoughts ...and advantages when reporting to higher levels of govn't...and reporting overall to general public. Some years, pay levels for various occupational groups, even names of employees earning over ie. $100,000+CAN threshold is released publicly and annually.

I have never ever been paid weekly and don’t know anyone who has. I think it is pretty rare. 4 hours ago, petitepedal said: Just before I left work yesterday I got notified that our pay schedule is going from twice a month (24) to every 2 weeks (26l...as of 4/1...to accomplish this..we will have a short check at the end of March...

I haven’t received a raise in 3 years and am not even sure how that works with my company. I ain’t complaining though as they have been very generous with bonus’ during the 3 years. Even during lean years they gave me a very generous bonus and with the recent boom gave me a crazy high bonus. I feel a little embarrassed to bring up raises... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are 15th and last day of month, and it seems like I often am paid before the day is out even though we fill out a time sheet - ie work, vacation, holiday, or personal/sick time. I guess they figure one way or the other you are getting "40 hours", and can pay it out ahead of the actual end of the work day & period, and then do the accounting to differentiate whether it is "work" or the other stuff.

You will get paid twice a month (just at different times) 10 months of the year. The 2 months where you get a 3rd check... it was like a bonus. Plan on living on the 2 checks per month. That's the easy way to budget you money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
