The bill amends various sections of Wyoming law to allow state employees the option to receive their pay on a semimonthly basis, in addition to the existing monthly payment schedule. Specifically, it authorizes the state auditor to establish the frequency of payroll and insurance remittances to accommodate this new payment option. The amendments include provisions for the state auditor to determine the payment dates for wages earned, as well as the timing for employer contributions to insurance plans, which can now also be made semimonthly.

Additionally, the bill outlines the procedures for state employees to elect their preferred payment frequency, requiring them to notify the state auditor in a specified manner. It also includes conforming amendments to ensure that deductions for employee contributions to insurance plans align with the new semimonthly payment option. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2027, following necessary preparations by relevant state agencies.
