If the 1st or 15th falls on a weekend, my employer wants to hold my pay until the following Monday. Can he?

I have always been paid on the 1st and 15th of the month. If either of those days falls on a weekend, I've been paid the Friday prior. Now they want to hold my pay until the following Monday if the 1st or 15th falls on a weekend and I don't know if they can do that.

I used to get paid on the first and if it fell on a weekend, we would get paid the Friday prior. My employer changed it to getting paid on the 15th (once a month, it took me 2 years to get my bills all lined up for mid-month, because some places did not believe me, when I told them how I got paid), now if the 15th lands on Saturday, we get paid Friday, if it falls on Sunday, we get paid Monday (official verbage is " If the 15th is a non-workday, payday is the day that is closest to the 15th"). Last month with the Holiday on Monday we got paid Friday, because the 15th was on Sunday. I think it's insane and I hate it, but obviously legal. I share your pain. Good Luck!

Yes, as long as they are consistent. Since this is a change, I'm sure they have a reason for the change. If they are consistent going forward it is legal.

You should sign up for direct deposit if available & the day of the week will not matter. If you boss is holding your pay check for any reason, I'd be checking on the financial stability of the company.
If you are concerned, check with your states labor board or the federal Dept of Labor.
