<b><i>Company Policy: Pay Periods and Payroll Processing</i></b></br>
</br></br>
<b>Purpose:</b></br>
The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for pay periods, payroll processing, and payment of employees at Tech Stop.</br>
This policy ensures timely and accurate payment of employee wages and promotes transparency and consistency.</br>
</br></br>
<b>1. Work Week and Pay Period:</b></br>
The standard work week at Tech Stop begins on Sunday and ends on Saturday. Each pay period covers one work week.</br>
</br></br>
<b>2. Payroll Processing:</b></br>
a) Payroll for each pay period is to be processed and issued to employees by the following Saturday.</br>
b) It should be noted that some banks do not support Real-Time ACH payments, and therefor may see up to an additional 2 banking business day processing delay.</br>
c) While all attempts will be made to meet this payroll deadline, there may be instances when payroll processing may take fewer or additional days due to the cash-based nature of the business.</br>
However, any delay in payroll processing will be within reason.</br>
</br></br>
<b>3. Payroll Exceptions:</b></br>
a) Any exceptions to the payroll processing times or pay periods must be supported by a valid explanation and require approval from the company’s system administrators.</br>

</br></br>

a) Tech Stop is responsible for maintaining accurate payroll records for each employee.</br>
b) Employees have the right to review their payroll records and request corrections if any discrepancies are found.</br>

</br></br>
<b>5. Compliance:</b></br>
Failure to comply with this policy may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment for responsible parties.</br>
