Payroll The County has two pay periods per month: the 1st through the 15th and the 16th through the end of the month. Each County employee must complete a timecard for each pay period. The official County payday is the 15th of the month for all hours worked in the prior month. However, employees who are on direct deposit get an earned salary advance (ESA) on the 30th of each month. An ESA is an advance on the 15th payday and is usually approximately one-half of the net earnings although some bonuses are only paid on the 15th of the month. Each department has designated an employee to be the payroll liaison. For trainees this person is usually the Program Coordinator. The liaison will attempt to answer all payroll related questions. If unable to answer these questions, the liaison will contact the Payroll Office for assistance.
