Biweekly means once every two weeks or twice a week. Bimonthly means once every two months or twice a month. If something is âonce every two weeksâ as noted above, then it is twice a month (not twice a week). And, if something Bimonthly is âonce every two monthsâ it does not mean twice a month.
A biweekly payroll happens once every two weeks, such as every other Thursday or Friday. A semi-monthly payroll occurs twice per month, such on the 15th and last day of the month. Both payrolls have their advantages. Normally, a year has 365 days; however, a leap year has 366 days. A biweekly payroll has 14 days and 26 pay periods, which amounts to 364 days. Over time, this difference of one day during regular years and two days during leap years results in a 27th paycheck for biweekly workers.
