The term âpay periodâ refers to the frequency with which an employer chooses to pay employees and contractors. Common pay periods include weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, and monthly, with the most common frequencies being bi-weekly and semi-monthly. Preferred pay periods vary from business to business, but are often mandated by state law.
The schedule of your payroll directly impacts your business accounting and the personal budgets of your employees. Semi-monthly employees are paid twice a month, usually on the 15th and the last day of the month. Unlike a bi-weekly payroll, which has 26 payments in a year, a semi-monthly pay schedule has only 24 pay periods.
