A pay schedule tells you how often and when they receive their pay.
Example
If a company has a monthly pay schedule:
Employees work for the month
They get paid once at the end of the month
If the schedule is bi-weekly:
Employees get paid every two weeks
Common types of pay schedules
Weekly – paid once a week
Bi-weekly – paid every two weeks
Semi-monthly – paid twice a month
Monthly – paid once a month
