Your business size, industry, the <a href=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/blog\/employee-classification\/\">type of employees you have<\/a>, their compensation rates, federal laws, and state laws all have an influence on your decision.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether it\u2019s once a week, every two weeks, on a monthly basis, or twice a month, we\u2019ll discuss the pros and cons of each pay schedule so you can decide the payroll frequency that\u2019s right for you. We\u2019ll also talk about the instances when you might want to change your payroll frequency, offering your employees <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">earned wage access (EWA)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and how you can go about it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is pay frequency?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pay frequency, also called payroll frequency, is how often an employer pays employees. Ideally, employees are paid following a consistent schedule throughout the year so they know what to expect and how to budget.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Payroll frequency can be weekly, biweekly, semi-monthly, or monthly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the most common payroll frequency?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/ces\/publications\/length-pay-period.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)<\/a> the <strong>most common pay frequency is biweekly<\/strong>.

Businesses that adopt a weekly payroll schedule usually do so when a large number of their employees are hourly. For example, industries like construction and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/who-we-serve\/manufacturing\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">manufacturing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> typically use a weekly frequency of pay.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pros of weekly pay periods:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tracking and calculating overtime is easier.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees are able to manage their personal budgets more easily.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quick and frequent access to pay can help <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">improve job satisfaction<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> among employees.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cons of weekly pay periods:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Processing payroll<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> every week requires a significant administrative effort that takes a lot of time, can increase the chance for errors, and adds to your overall bookkeeping workload.

Businesses that pay bi-weekly usually have a mix of hourly and salaried employees, as the pay frequency works well for both categories.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pros of bi-weekly pay periods:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t have to run payroll every week, which means less administrative work and fewer chances for errors.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overtime is relatively simple to calculate for hourly workers.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The predictability of a bi-weekly pay period helps employees budget.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cons of bi-weekly pay periods:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two months in the calendar year that end up with three pay periods, which can complicate bookkeeping and financial planning.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Semi-monthly pay period (24 paychecks per year)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A semi-monthly pay period means employees are paid twice each month, most commonly on the 15th and the 30th or 1st. Semi-monthly pay periods are a good choice for businesses with salaried employees.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pros of semi-monthly pay periods:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tracking <a href=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/learn\/payroll\/payroll-expenses\/\">payroll expenses<\/a> and calculating benefit deductions is easier with minimum frequency.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting two paychecks per month is frequent enough for salaried employees to avoid financial hardship, especially if they\u2019re well-compensated.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cons of semi-monthly pay periods:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have hourly employees, a semi-monthly frequency makes it harder to calculate weekly overtime.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For employees that have to adapt to semi-monthly payments, it can be a bit challenging since there\u2019s no set payday; for example, they may be paid on a Monday one pay period and a Thursday the next time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Monthly pay period (12 paychecks per year)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A monthly pay period means that employees are paid once a month. These days, it\u2019s the least common pay schedule and the least preferred by employees.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pros of monthly pay periods:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because you only have to run payroll once per month, you save significant administrative time and expenses, especially if you\u2019re using a payroll service provider.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A monthly payroll schedule works well for 1099 workers or contractors who invoice monthly or if you have salaried employees that are well-compensated.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cons of monthly pay periods:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting paid monthly is not practical or desirable for hourly employees.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be difficult to find and retain employees if you\u2019re only paying them once per month.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paying employees\u2019 wages once a month, may not adhere to some state payday requirements.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bi-weekly vs. semi-monthly pay periods<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There may not seem like much of a difference between these two pay periods \u2014 since both generally correlate to employees getting paid twice a month.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But as discussed, the bi-weekly approach means there are two months out of the year in which employees are paid three times, as opposed to semi-monthly in which employees are always paid twice per month, no matter what. Therefore, adopting the bi-weekly approach comes with a little extra administrative work and budgeting complexity.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">See the other pros and cons outlined above for both pay schedules.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How your location affects pay periods<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where your business operates geographically also plays a role in determining which type of payroll frequency to choose.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many states have laws and pay frequency requirements that mandate pay dates. For example, some states don\u2019t allow a monthly pay schedule. Others mandate that employees have to be paid at least twice per month on regular paydays.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still, other states allow businesses to pay hourly employees on whichever pay schedule the business chooses, but with the provision that certain types of workers have the right to a bi-weekly pay period.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best thing to do if you operate in multiple states is to check with each state\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">U.S. Department of Labor<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (DOL) to ensure your payroll schedule complies with all local labor laws and regulations.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why you might want to change your payroll frequency<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though it can cause a temporary disruption, there are a number of good reasons for changing your current pay schedule:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stay in compliance with state laws<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you expand your business operations into other states, you\u2019ll need to make sure you\u2019re following each <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/agencies\/whd\/state\/payday\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">state\u2019s requirements<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> around pay frequency. Failure to follow the laws could result in fines and penalties.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Improve paycheck consistency<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If employees struggle with getting paid on different days of the week \u2014 as is the case with a semi-monthly schedule \u2014 you may want to adjust the payroll frequency to a bi-weekly one so your staff knows they\u2019re always getting paid on a Friday, for example. Bringing more consistency and predictability to employees\u2019 lives regarding the payment of wages is generally appreciated.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Make business budgeting and planning easier<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If cash flow projections or budgeting are tough for you, then switching to a different pay frequency might help. For example, if you use a bi-weekly schedule in which two months out of the year you need to process three paychecks instead of two, you might consider switching to a semi-monthly or monthly pay frequency that reduces complexity and streamlines financial planning.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Manage employee role changes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If an employee moves up from an hourly role to a <a href=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/hr-glossary\/salaried-employee\/\">salaried role<\/a>, you may want to change their payroll frequency as well. Hourly employees do well with a weekly schedule, but salaried employees \u2014 especially well-compensated ones \u2014 can more easily get by on a less frequent schedule, such as bi-weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"brxe-ojflqm\" class=\"brxe-block cta-block__gradient cta-block radius--xl\"><div id=\"brxe-ykuqds\" class=\"brxe-container cta-block__content-wrap\"><figure id=\"brxe-lkvktb\" class=\"brxe-image cta-block__logo tag\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"972\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/NEW-primepay-logo-white-lg-tagline.png\" class=\"css-filter size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/NEW-primepay-logo-white-lg-tagline.png 972w, https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/NEW-primepay-logo-white-lg-tagline-768x202.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 972px) 100vw, 972px\" title=\"\"><\/figure><p id=\"brxe-lubcda\" class=\"brxe-heading cta-block__heading\">Run Payroll with PrimePay<\/p><a id=\"brxe-zwhfyd\" class=\"brxe-button btn--action cta-block__button bricks-button bricks-background-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/primepay.com\/pricing\/\">Explore Pricing<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Need to change your pay frequency? Here\u2019s how<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you decide to change your pay frequency, use the following guidelines:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Pay attention to FLSA rules<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/agencies\/whd\/flsa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> governs minimum wage, overtime pay, record-keeping, child labor, and other employment standards. Make sure that if you change your pay frequency you\u2019re not inadvertently violating any FLSA rules.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Check your state laws<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You also need to be sure that a pay frequency change doesn\u2019t violate state laws either. Check with the Department of Labor in each state in which you operate to find out what the specific laws are \u2014 if any \u2014 around pay frequency.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Change pay and deduction amounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Changing your pay frequency means you also need to change paycheck and withholding amounts, such as for benefits and taxes. Though annual withholdings end up the same no matter which pay schedule you use, per-paycheck withholdings will be different according to how often you process payroll.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Communicate the change to your employees<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees depend on their current pay schedule for everything from automatic bill paying to cover household expenses to long-term financial planning. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so important to communicate the change so they have time to prepare. Be super clear about the exact timing of the change, offer any supportive resources to help employees adjust, and give frequent reminders up until the change happens.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Roll out the change<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it\u2019s go time, give your payroll provider or accountant a thumbs up so they can start processing payroll according to the change. If you use payroll software instead, input the new schedule into the system, which should then automatically adjust payroll and tax withholdings to reflect the new schedule.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why you might want to consider on-demand payroll<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In today&#8217;s evolving workplace landscape, employers are increasingly exploring innovative ways to enhance employee financial wellness. One such solution gaining popularity is offering earned wage access, also known as, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on-demand pay<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This financial wellness benefit provides hourly employees with the flexibility to access a portion of their earned wages before the traditional payday. Let&#8217;s explore why employers should consider offering this valuable perk and examine its pros and cons.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pros of offering on-demand pay:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Demonstrates the employer&#8217;s commitment to employee financial well-being, leading to improved morale and job satisfaction.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enhances the company&#8217;s reputation as an employer of choice, attracting top talent in a competitive job market.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minimizes the resources spent on payroll adjustments due to errors or discrepancies, as employees have real-time visibility into their earnings.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boosts employee loyalty and retention rates, as this benefit is highly valued by hourly workers.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enables employees to address unexpected expenses or financial emergencies promptly.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enhances overall financial stability, reducing financial stress among employees.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enables better budgeting and financial planning, as employees can manage their cash flow effectively.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Promotes financial literacy and responsibility, as employees gain a clearer understanding of their earnings and spending patterns.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduces administrative burdens associated with traditional payroll cycles, such as check printing and distribution.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cons and potential drawbacks of offering on-demand pay:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Offering on-demand pay may create a reliance on this benefit, potentially leading to frequent usage that disrupts cash flow management. Employers should encourage responsible usage and educate employees on financial planning.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may require more monitoring as it relates to state regulations.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Earned wage access or on-demand pay can be a valuable financial wellness benefit for hourly employees. By offering greater financial flexibility, employers can empower their workforce, enhance employee satisfaction, and improve overall financial well-being. However, employers should carefully evaluate the pros and cons, considering implementation requirements, costs, and potential dependencies, while ensuring compliance with applicable regulations. By striking the right balance, employers can foster a positive work environment and provide a valuable benefit that supports their employees&#8217; financial goals and needs.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How PrimePay can help<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pay frequency is a critical decision that impacts everything from job satisfaction to business finances to the level of administrative support you need.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter which pay schedule you implement, you need it to be consistent so that you and your staff can plan around it.
