In order to be paid, you must turn
in a properly completed timesheet. Paychecks are issued on the 15th and last day of each month
.

Time Sheets
Time sheets representing work in the previous week must be
received by 12:00pm each Monday. If Monday is a holiday, timesheets
are due at Scientific Search by 12:00pm on Tuesday. Please fax your
timesheet to our office at 856-761-0910.

Blank timesheets will be mailed to you with each paycheck. Alternatively,
you may print a timesheet directly from this website (Adobe Acrobat required).
Timesheets will not be processed without the client’s approval (signature).
If timesheets are received without client approval or after 12:00pm on
Monday, your paycheck may be delayed.

Paychecks
Paychecks are issued on the 15th and last day of each month.
Paychecks are normally direct deposited to your bank account and the
paycheck stub is mailed to your home address.

If the 15th or last day falls on a weekend, the paychecks will
be issued the Friday prior. Similarly, if payday falls on a holiday
paychecks will be issued the previous business day.

Rates of Pay
Your individual rate of pay is based on the skills and experience
required to perform an assignment, the level of responsibility, and
the length of time you have worked on an assignment.

At Scientific Search, we pay the highest possible wages to our
employees as determined by each individual job assignment.
In addition, we are responsible for covering the employer’s
share of your Social Security and Medicare contributions, and
we pay your worker’s compensation and unemployment insurance.

Payroll Taxes
We will withhold all Federal payroll taxes (income tax, Social
Security, and Medicare) and State/local payroll taxes from your
paycheck. In general, the withholding of State and local taxes is based
on the location of your assignment (the client’s location) rather than
the location of Scientific Search’s office or of your residence.

Some states do have reciprocal agreements in regards to the
withholding of income taxes. For example, if you live in Pennsylvania
but have a work assignment in New Jersey, we will withhold Pennsylvania
income tax rather than New Jersey. In this example, we must still
withhold New Jersey unemployment and disability taxes. Similarly,
if you live in New Jersey but have a work assignment in
Pennsylvania, we will withhold New Jersey income tax.
