Most companies on Justworks have their hourly employees on biweekly pay schedule, that pays them every other week for the two work weeks prior. However, you have the flexibility to place hourly employees on a semimonthly delayed pay frequency that pays them twice a month after the close of the pay period. If your company has hourly employees on the weekly pay frequency, then they'll be paid each week for the prior week worked.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFor employees on a biweekly or weekly pay frequency, their timecard, pay period, and pay date will adjust to align with your selected workweek. For example, if your workweek runs Wednesday–Tuesday, employees timecards and pay periods will follow that same cadence, with pay issued five business days after the close of the payroll period.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eNavigate to the navigation menu on the left-hand side and select the drop down next to \u003cstrong\u003eYou.
