Q: What does this mean for the July 2006 pay period?

A: The pay period for this transitional month will be July 1 st through July 21 st . For this month only, the pay period will be 6 days shorter than normal.

 

Q: How will this shorter pay period impact my July pay check?

A: To minimize the financial impact, the BOR has implemented a program to advance funds to all employees to cover the six day difference.

 

Q: How will I repay the BOR?

A: The advance for the 6 working days will be re-paid over a 12 month period. For example, the July 2006 paycheck will include 15 working days plus an additional five and one-half (6 days advance minus ½ day repayment) days. Employees will repay ½ day of the advance each paycheck for the fiscal year. Those employees with less than 12 month employment will repay per the number of months employed.

 

Q: How will I know my advance balance?

A: The balance will be shown on your pay stub.

 

Q: What happens if I terminate my employment before the advance is paid in full?

A: The balance of the advance and any hours worked will be calculated in your final paycheck.

 

Q: What about the payments after July 31, 2006?

A: Beginning in August, you will be paid for one-twelfth of your annual salary, (minus half a day's salary to repay the advance received in July), but the payment will cover different dates. Your pay on August 31 st will be for the period from July 22 nd through August 21 st , September will be for the period from August 22 nd through September 21 st , etc.

 

Q: In recent years, CSA employees have received a small adjustment payment either at the end of June or in early July if the number of hours in the fiscal year exceeded 2,080. Will these payments continue?

A: No. Since your position has been determined to be exempt from overtime, you are exempt from keeping a timesheet or tracking your hours worked. This means that you are compensated for your work on a salaried basis, so an adjustment will not be necessary.

 

Q: What if my pay changes during the year?

A:  The advance will be calculated and included in pay at the beginning of the fiscal year. Repayments will be calculated at the same time and loaded into the payroll system. Any pay adjustments after this initial load will have no impact on the advance or repayment. They will continue as initially determined.

 

Q: Will my taxes be affected by the advance? 

A:  The advance and repayment will be made on a net pay to net pay basis. This means that the advance will be calculated as an estimate of the difference in your net pay (after deductions). Repayments will be calculated by dividing the amount of the advance by the number of months in your repayment period. Therefore, there are not implications to your taxes.
