Pay Periods

The first pay period begins on the first day of each month and ends on the 15th of the month and the second begins on the 16th of the month and ends on the last day of the month. The Company issues paychecks on a semimonthly basis. The Company is required to maintain a record of hourly employees’ working hours. Employee must use the time clock on the Graphtek Portal Time Tracker application.

Paydays will fall 5 business days following the close of the preceding pay period. All employees will be paid by direct deposit. If the employee elects not to have direct deposit the paycheck will be issued on the Company's bank draft, which will normally be made available to employees no later than 4 p.m. on paydays at the employee's customary work station, or mailed to the employee's last known mailing address upon the written request of the employee. If there are any omissions or errors on your check, be sure to report them immediately to the Business Manager for proper adjustment.

If an employee wishes to authorize any other person to receive his paycheck, the employee must submit such a written authorization to the Business Manager. Only in unusual or emergency circumstances will the Managing Partner authorize early release of paychecks, and such circumstances will be few and narrowly interpreted to avoid specialized payroll processing. Should a payday fall on a scheduled holiday, payroll release will be moved to the next business day after the holiday.
