Taking into account your business structure, cash flow, and state laws
The frequency of your payroll runs—whether weekly, biweekly, semi-monthly, or monthly—can depend on your business structure, cash flow, and state laws.
Some states have minimum payday frequency requirements, so it’s essential to check local labor regulations.
Biweekly payroll is one of the most common schedules, offering a good balance between administrative convenience and employee expectations. However, some businesses prefer weekly payroll for hourly workers or monthly payroll for salaried employees.
Online payroll platforms offer flexibility, allowing you to schedule payroll at intervals that work best for your business. Automating this process helps you maintain consistency and ensures employees are paid on time, which supports morale and trust.
