Frequency Of Salary Payment For Legislative Department

Executive Committee of the Legislative Council. Currently, salaries for most state employees are paid once a month on the last day of the month; except that salaries for June are paid on the first working day of July. Current law states that salary payments for employees paid through the state's payroll system will change from monthly to twice monthly when the twice monthly payroll system is implemented. The bill exempts members of the general assembly and most employees of the legislative department from the change to the twice monthly payroll system. The bill specifies that members of the general assembly and most employees of the legislative department will continue to be paid monthly as of the last working day of the month; except that salaries for the month of June shall be paid on the first working day of July. The bill also specifies that salary payments for employees of the legislative department who are currently paid on a biweekly basis will change to a twice monthly payment when the twice monthly payroll system is implemented and in place for all other employees.
