If do not get paid on your scheduled date, you should contact your immediate supervisor. If a payroll department or payroll manager has an open line for workers to use, you also should report the missed payment to whoever is in charge of the payroll.nThere could be a simple explanation, such as the pay date was temporarily changed and you missed a notice about it. It also might have been missed because of a minor problem with the payroll system and a fix is in the works.
