This week’s question comes from Harold, a business owner. I own a business in Massachusetts. Can I switch from a weekly to a bi-weekly pay period? Answer: Under Massachusetts law it is allowable to change to a bi-weekly pay period as long as employees are provided with written notice. MGL c. 149, §148 requires written notice to each employee at least ninety days in advance of the first bi-weekly check. Contact Vision Payroll if you have questions on pay frequency changes.
