(a) Each employe of an administrative department, of an independent administrative board or commission and of a departmental administrative board or commission, shall be paid his regular salary every other week.

(b) Effective within six months subsequent to July 1, 1984, all employes of the Executive Branch shall be paid on an after-the-fact pay basis.

(c) An after-the-fact pay is defined as a method of payment in which compensation due for a given pay period is paid to the employe no later than two weeks after the end of the pay period.

(d) Any employe on a before-the-fact pay basis on the date of conversion would receive a conversion payment equal to his biweekly salary in order to avoid any employe missing a payday in the process of conversion. Such conversion payment shall be recoverable by the Commonwealth upon severance of the employe from State service. After the date of conversion, employes shall continue to be paid every other week.
