Monthly Payroll Calendar

The monthly calendar below applies to all payments made to employees in a position with a Monthly Pay Group.

The monthly paycheck is inclusive of all salary plus any additional/supplemental pay, such as longevity, overtime, shift differential, and communication device allowances. All compensation is paid once a month for positions in the Monthly Pay Group.

The monthly payday is on the first business day of the following month after the pay period ends. A business day is defined as a day other than a weekend or bank holiday.

Departmental Deadline

Business Process (BP) transactions applicable to the pay period must be routed and final approved by the day and time reflected in the Monthly payroll calendar below. Additional details about these deadlines are bulleted here:

• ROUTING

BP transactions affecting the payroll that route to Human Resources (HR) and Academic Personnel Services (APS) must be routed no later than 5:00pm on the deadline day. BP transactions routing to Payroll Services must be routed no later than noon on the deadline day.

Note: BPs that are returned for correction due to errors, or that are missing supporting documentation (attachments), may result in payment delays. Routing BPs as soon as the job/payment details have been determined is recommended in order to better ensure payments are made on time.
