Question 15 - Workplace Documents Practice Test for the WorkKeys

Memo re: Payroll

Pay earned during each two-week pay period is paid after 8:00 a.m. on the fol­lowing Thursday. The pay period begins on Sunday at 12:01 a.m. and ends two weeks later on Saturday at 12:00 midnight. A work week begins each Sunday at 12:01 a.m. and ends the following Saturday at 12:00 midnight.

In the event that a regularly scheduled payday falls on a design­ated holiday, paychecks will be distributed on the day before the holiday.

Supervisors are responsible for the distribution of paychecks to their employees. Any paychecks that have not been picked up by noon on the Monday following pay day will be mailed by the super­visor to the employee’s home, unless other arrange­ments have been made by the employee. Employees are responsible for updat­ing any address change immediately to ensure prompt delivery of payroll documents. Spectrum re­quires a writ­ten, signed authori­zation to release a check to anyone other than the emp­loyee, and identifi­cation must be verified.
