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.
Employees are paid two times per month, or 24 times per year, usually on either the 1st and the 15th of every month, or the 15th and the last day of the month. This method is usually preferred by accountants over the biweekly schedule because it makes monthly voluntary deductions easier.
