Familiarity with payroll software such as ADP, Paychex, or QuickBooks, and often certification like the Fundamental Payroll Certification (FPC), is expected.

What does biweekly mean in a job context?

In a job context, 'biweekly' typically refers to something that happens every two weeks. Most commonly, it is used to describe a pay schedule where employees receive their paycheck every other week, resulting in 26 paychecks per year. This schedule is different from 'semimonthly,' which means twice a month. Biweekly pay periods can affect how overtime, benefits, and deductions are calculated, so it's important for employees to understand their company's specific policies.

How does working a biweekly schedule affect pay periods and time management for employees?

In roles where employees are paid on a biweekly basis, paydays occur every two weeks, typically resulting in 26 paychecks per year.
