Government of Canada employees are paid in arrears<\/a>. \u2197\ufe0f This means that you are paid for your work during your first 2 week pay period, 2 weeks following, at the end of the second 2 week pay period. Pay periods are 2 week time frames that start on a Thursday and end on the second Wednesday. You should receive your first pay within 4 weeks of starting work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, if your start date is January 13, 2020, you are entitled to your first pay on February 5, 2020 (for the 8 days you worked in the January 9 \u2013 22 pay period). You will receive your first full pay on February 19, 2020, and payments will continue every second Wednesday after that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n New employees or those who’ve recently returned to work and haven’t received payment on time can request an emergency salary advance or priority payment<\/a>. \u2197\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n To better understand your pay and tax implications, please visit the Public Services and Procurement Canada website for information on how public service pay works<\/a>, how to read your pay stub<\/a>, tax-related related issues<\/a> and much more. \u2197\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n We encourage you to take the time to read this information, as it will answer some of your questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The government uses direct deposit to electronically transfer your pay to your bank account. Using direct deposit is a condition of employment. Exceptions may be made only if there is a specific reason why you can\u2019t use direct deposit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You may modify your banking information through the employee self-serve option in Phoenix. If you are unable to modify your direct deposit information in Phoenix, you may complete and send the direct deposit enrolment request form, along with a void cheque, to the Pay Centre. If your organization isn\u2019t served by the Pay Centre, contact your compensation team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is important that you keep your current bank account active until you can confirm that your pay is being deposited into your new account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To determine your gross bi-weekly pay (before deductions), divide your annual salary by 26.088.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Example:<\/strong> If your annual salary is $50,000, your gross pay is $50,000 \u00f7 26.088 = $1,916.59 per pay<\/p>\n\n\n\n To determine your hourly gross rate of pay, divide your annual salary by 52.176 to obtain the weekly rate, and then by the number of hours in your standard work week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Example: If your annual salary is $50,000 and you work 37.5 hours a week, your pre-tax rate of pay is $50,000 \u00f7 52.176 \u00f7 37.5 = $25.55 per hour<\/p>\n\n\n\n On this page: How public service pay works How you get paid Calculating your gross pay Submitting overtime hours How public service pay works Government of Canada employees are paid in arrears. \u2197\ufe0f This means that you are paid for your work during your first 2 week pay period, 2 weeks following, at the end\u2026 Read more of Your pay<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"parent":401,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-421","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"slug_en":"your-pay","slug_fr":"votre-paye","id_en":421,"id_fr":423,"lang":"en","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/421","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=421"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/421\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1279,"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/421\/revisions\/1279"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/articles.alpha.canada.ca\/cds-intranet-employee-guide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}How you get paid <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
