How frequently are Miami-Dade County employees paid?

Miami-Dade County employees are paid once every two weeks or twenty-six times per year.

Employees are encouraged to sign up for direct deposit. This is an effective and efficient way of depositing pay into your bank account. Instead of an actual pay check, employees who select direct deposit get a statement with a detailed accounting of the pay's composition and deductions.

The benefits of this option are most apparent when a storm or its effects interrupt our normal business routine. When streets are difficult, if not impossible to navigate, communications are disrupted, gas is at a premium and uncertainty reigns, it is a pleasure not to worry about picking up a check and making your way to a bank or other financial institution that may or may not be open.
