Overview
Hourly Employees are paid weekly, with paychecks distributed every Friday unless more frequent is required by law. Each paycheck is for work performed through the end of the prior workweek, each of which begin at 12:00 a.m. on a Sunday and end at 11:59 p.m. on the following Saturday.
Salaried Employees are paid bi-weekly with paychecks distributed every other Friday, unless more frequent pay is required by law. Each paycheck is for work performed through the end of the prior two workweeks, each of which begin at 12:00 a.m. on a Sunday and end at 11:59 p.m. on the following Saturday.
If an employee does not have direct deposit, live paychecks are mailed to the individual’s work location. If an employee does not have direct deposit and is absent on payday, their paycheck will be held by the onsite manager, absent an advance request from the employee to have their paycheck mailed to them. Paychecks will not, under any circumstances, be given to any person other than the employee without written authorization.
Alternatively, the Company offers an employee direct deposit of paychecks into a personal checking(s) or savings account(s). In the event that an employee uses this service, they may log into the payroll system to view a record of the paycheck.
If the normal payday falls on a Company-recognized holiday, paychecks will be distributed one workday before the regularly scheduled payday.
In the event of a lost paycheck, the Payroll department must be notified in writing as soon as possible and before a replacement check can be issued. In the event the lost paycheck is recovered, and the Company identifies the endorsement as that of the employee, the employee must remit the amount of the replacement check to the Company within 24 hours of the time it is demanded, subject to applicable law.
If an employee wants to change the number of exemptions previously claimed, a new Form W-4 must be submitted through the payroll system.
