Payday and Pay Advances. Section 23.1 All employees shall normally be paid no later than the first of the month. When a payday occurs on Monday through Friday, payroll checks shall be released to employees on that day. When a payday falls on a Saturday, Sunday or Holiday, employee paychecks shall be made available on the last working day of the month. The Agency shall endeavor to pay any earned adjustment(s), other than regular pay, on the supplemental payday designated by Oregon State Payroll System. When an employee is not scheduled to work on the payday, the paycheck may be released prior to payday if the paycheck is available and the employee has completed the "Request for Release of Payroll Check" Form AD20. However, the employee may not cash or deposit the check prior to the normal release day. Any violation of this provision shall be cause for disciplinary action. The release day for December paychecks dated January 1 shall be the first working day in January to avoid the risk of December's paychecks being included in the prior year's earnings for tax. Section 23.2 The parties agree that pay advances will be kept to an absolute minimum and are for emergencies. Within that context, employees may obtain an advance on their salary. The amount of the request shall not exceed sixty percent (60%) of gross pay earned, but shall be at least one hundred dollars ($100). Employees may submit requests up to the final monthly payroll cut off date. If any employee requests more than one (1) pay advance in any twelve (12)-month period, management has the right to deny it.
