  I mean it also benefits salaried employees, 13 months means 26 pay periods

    But you typically get paid an amount per year, divided between pay periods. You work the same amount, get paid the same amount overall, and get more pay periods at the expense of less pay per period

    There’s the same amount of weeks though. It’s just spread over 13 months instead of 12 so it would be the same total bi-weekly pay periods.

      Not necessarily, some companies do half way and end of the month instead of strict every two weeks so they can claim a consistent monthly wage
