State Employees - As enacted, requires the pay period for state employees be no less than twice per month as determined by the commissioner of finance and administration; removes the requirement that the pay period be semimonthly. - Amends TCA Title 8, Chapter 23, Part 2.

HB 108 changes Tennessee's state employee pay schedule by replacing the requirement for "semimonthly" pay with a new standard: pay periods must occur "no less than twice per month," as determined by the commissioner of finance and administration. This directly affects all state employees by removing fixed semimonthly pay dates (e.g., 1st and 15th) and allowing the commissioner flexibility to set biweekly or other schedules meeting the minimum two-pay-periods-per-month requirement. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated § 8-23-202 to remove the word "semimonthly" and clarify the pay frequency standard. It became effective March 28, 2025, after being signed by the Governor.
