County outlines phased move to biweekly payroll with soft launch
Summary
County staff presented a plan to transition to biweekly payroll and a time-and-attendance system, proposing a phased soft launch and temporary deduction deferrals to lessen the first-paycheck impact for employees.
County staff described plans to move county payroll to a biweekly schedule and to implement a time-and-attendance system intended to modernize payroll processing. Tom Ford told commissioners the transition would "begin in July next year" and recommended a phased approach, including user-group testing and a soft launch so staff can train departmental trainers ahead of a full go-live.
Ford said the first biweekly payroll could produce a smaller paycheck because it would cover fewer days; to reduce hardship the county might temporarily defer certain deductions such as health premiums and garnishments into subsequent paychecks. Staff emphasized there was no formal motion—this was an update—and said they would return with details once testing schedules are set and blackout dates are coordinated.
