The Chicago Public Schools Payroll Services Department will move to combine the Teacher/Administrator and PSRP/ESP payroll period on April 12, 2009, consistent with the collective bargaining agreements between the Board of Education and the labor organizations representing Board employees. The combination of the payroll periods will mean that all employees will receive their pay on the second Friday following the end of a payroll period instead of on the first Friday, as is currently the case. In other words, you will be paid 13 calendar days after the end of a payroll period.
