No benefits premium deductions taken from July 30 paycheck
Notice a little something extra in your bank account this week? If your direct deposit seems a bit higher than usual, it’s probably due to one of HISD’s periodic “benefits holidays.”
Employees usually experience these days once or twice each year, because HISD only deducts benefit plan premiums from the first two paychecks of any given month. This year, there will be three such holidays, with the second occurring this week.
Please note that this applies only to regular benefits-plan deductions. If an employee has an unpaid balance for benefits, then a deduction to collect past amounts owed may be made on this paycheck.
The next one benefits holiday will be in December.
