BI-WEEKLY PAYROLL
Information for Full-time Staff
A full pay period covers two work weeks (80 hours total). Each work week begins on a Saturday and ends on a Friday. Pay for the pay period will be issued on the following Friday by direct deposit per University policy. Vacation and sick leave accruals are calculated based on actual time paid. To receive full accruals, full-time non-exempt (hourly) staff employees must have at least 80 hours of paid time recorded for the pay period. No additional accruals are given for paid time over 80 hours in a pay period.
For non-exempt staff receiving an annual merit increase, the increases are effective at the beginning of the pay period that includes January 1, 2025. The effective date for non-exempt staff is December 21, 2024, with a direct deposit date of January 10, 2025.
Bi-weekly Payroll Leave Accruals
Newly hired non-exempt staff employees receive 40 hours of both vacation and sick leave. Due to the 40-hour front load, vacation and sick accruals will be adjusted for the remaining 25 pay periods of their first year.
