In my country, payment is mostly monthly. Some organizations use to pay at the beginning of next month. I think is not proper to wait till starting of next month. Some organizations use it to tire down some workers to avoid losing their services. All in all, no organization pays in two weeks as far as Nigeria is concerned.

I once worked in an organization that the employer used to pay his staff date to date. That's to say that if you started working on 15th this month, your salary would come in on 15th next month.

If it were me I would like to be paid in monthly basis. This is because most utility bills, school fees and other needs needs to be taken care of in end moths.

Monthly payments are the best form of payments. It allows you to plan your finances. Daily earners always seem reckless with money.

The bottomline is that every employer should endeavor to pay his or her employees as at when due. You don't have to let their due date pass and they don't get their salaries.

I think this depends on the company itself. Every company/ organisation has their own ways of doing things. However the management is the one responsible for the planning, organising and controlling of the matter.

Capitalists everywhere that sees their workers as a means to a goal. If a firm is doing its part well as an employer, it doesn't have to bother of staff wants to leave after getting the salary.

No matter what happens in your business, this is one thing that can't wait. People exchange their time and effort to work for you.

Some employers pay weekly, some pay twice a week and some pay monthly, but never more than that?

How would you like to be paid?
As we all know that there are different methods and modes of payment schedule as one could be paid hourly and some daily while others could be paid weekly and then we have monthly payments. This depends on the contract of agreement between the employer and the employee as not everyone will want to be paid on a monthly basis as some want to own and see their works payment on a weekly basis.

Ideally, every worker should be paid at the end of every month of they are not being paid hourly or weekly. That's when all utilities providers bring bills. Some companies would intentionally shift payment till first week or second week of the new month.

Every employee should get his or her pay at the end of every month to be able to plan the next month. Companies should make sure that the highest delay period from end of the month should be 2 days.

In our country, they pay monthly most of the time and even then they pay us after like 7-14 days so I will be getting my June months salary not before 7th July and not after 15th

I believe it is good to be paid monthly but better people are being paid two weeks apart from each payment they receive as it would make things even more better than it is at the moment with a monthly payment.

A business should pay its employees by the date that was agreed on when the staff members were hired.
Failure to satisfy this requirement would amount to a crime in most cases. Additionally, nonconforming employers would be acting unethically.

Every company has different rules to pay it's employees but I see mostly they pay monthly and we don't have weekly payment option unless you are working on casual agreement in a company.

Monthly salary is just the most common practice among organizations. I think it is the best though because it gives an employee enough allowance to make financial plans but it comes with huge indebtedness to staff who are doing low paying jobs.
