Payroll and Timecards
The Research Foundation pays its employees on the 10th and 26th of each month. If the payday falls on a weekend, funds will be released the prior Friday. If the payday falls on a holiday or a scheduled closure day [pdf], funds will be released the day before the holiday. Paydays are listed on the 2025 Payroll Calendar [pdf].
The Research Foundation offers all employees two green options for receiving their pay: direct deposit or "pay cards."
-
You may sign up for Direct Deposit [pdf]. If you do not have a bank account, you may open a no-fee account with Wells Fargo Bank and arrange for direct deposit there. Call (408) 924-1400 for information on opening an account.
- You may be issued a Pay Card, a card that is loaded with your wages each pay period. It can be used like a debit card to make purchases, and you can use it to withdraw cash from an ATM machine. Call (408) 924-1400 for assistance with obtaining a Pay Card.
