When a new employee is hired at UF, is his or her first paycheck withheld to be paid upon termination?
Filed under Classification and Compensation.
No paychecks are held back. However, various factors may delay the employee receiving his or her first check. For example, the department may not be timely in completing payroll sign-up, or the appointment might be submitted immediately after a payroll closing deadline. However, the employee will receive all the pay he or she has earned and will “catch up” and be current with other employees in the payroll cycle. Please also note that the payday is usually the Friday of the week after the time card end date. This is not a hold back of pay, rather it is just the time it takes to process the payroll.
