HB124 Summary

• Effective October 1, 2014, state employees transition from semi-monthly to biweekly pay periods, with salary payments made two weeks in arrears.

• The last semi-monthly salary payment occurs September 16, 2014, and biweekly payments resume on the previously established schedule of every other Friday.

• State employees' annual leave accrual converts to biweekly periods effective October 1, 2014, maintaining the same annual accumulation rates based on years of service (ranging from 13 days to 29.25 days annually).

• Sick leave accrual regulations are revised to convert from semi-monthly to biweekly pay periods while preserving the same total annual accumulation amounts.

• The conversion does not reduce any employee's annual rate of compensation, and the Director of State Personnel adjusts pay calculations by multiplying biweekly salary by 26 and dividing by 24.
