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?

I think weekly payments are better than other options.

I actually prefer to be paid at the end of the month or every two weeks. This helps me save and do my shopping once in a while instead of weekly.

I think that employees should be paid at the right time when they are deserved to be paid. Some companies delay salaries and this may never be a good sign.

Most business owners usually pay their workers at the end of the month, let's say around 27th or there about, i believe this is better than waiting till s few days inside the new month before paying.

I would much prefer to get paid weekly as that is something that I feel is easier for me. Most places where I live pay weekly and that is how everyone prefers to be paid if possible. You do get some places that pay monthly but the people who get paid monthly know they get paid then and they plan for that so that their money lasts for the month.

Yes, I completely agree with you, but I would prefer a pay piece rate system. Like in this RIF when it reaches a minimum of 5$ we get a payout. Here many workers are paid by a piece rate system, so they are given a project with some money. So the rest is the worker's business in how long it will take.

In my last company we use to get our salaries 27th of every month because when next month starts we do have to pay all utility bills house rent and so many other expenses starts as a month start.

Its different for every job and employer but generally, employees should be paid in a timely manner for their work. The most common payroll schedules are bi weekly and semi monthly.

Personally, I prefer to be paid on weekly basis because it will make it very convenient for me to always have cash on me that will help me to take care of my needs.

In my country, we can have the payment twice a month, every 15th and 30th of the month. I had also tried on a weekly basis but not all companies will indulge into this idea. I do think that the locals would not want to have their payment on a monthly basis here.

The period that employees should be paid depends on when the companies pay their employees and it depends on when they want to get paid

It depends on the contract.Some employees prefer to be paid on daily basis,others on weekly basis and lastly monthly basis.It is good for the employer to pay the employee on or before as per the contract agreement.
