If you work forty hours a week and get paid biweekly, will you have only 40hrs on one paycheck or 80 hrs?

Answer 1

You'll have 80 hours. You'll be getting two-weeks' pay on each paycheck.

Answer 2

If you are a salaried worker and/or you have a contract that states what your wages are, and you have agreed to that, then there's nothing you can do. However, if you're paid hourly for 40 hours per week, any time after the regular scheduled time is supposed to be time and a half. Holidays are usually double time. Keep in mind though that the more you make, the more you are taxed! Good Luck! If you find that the discrepancy is in your favor, then you should get help from your local labor board. They will help you get any monies owed to you.

Answer 3

You would get paid for 80 hours on each paycheck assuming you don't have any absences during that period without making up for the hours you missed.

Answer 4

Biweekly means once every 2 weeks, so you will have 80 hours per period, assuming no overtime or missed work.

Answer 5

The first check will depend on whether you started at the beginning of a payperiod or in the middle. The rest will be 80 hours. Congrats on the new job.

Answer 6

You will recieve a paycheck every other week, with 80 hours on each paycheck.

Answer 7

Depending on which week you started in he payweek period your first may be only 40 hours (You worked one week and the next week was payday) after that it will be for the two weeks or 80 hours

Answer 8

Err, don't you mean bimonthly, as in twice a month, as in once every two weeks? biweekly means twice a week my friend. but yes, if you get paid every two weeks, you'd accumulate 80 hours if you're talking about a standard work week.
