I can't say for sure because I don't know your relationship with administration... but I think if I were in your position, I would approach the administrator (or whoever takes care of paying staff) EVERY SINGLE TIME my paycheck was late.
You work, you get paid. It's really simple. You are not there for "cheesed" or recreational pursuit (although you may love your job)... and you deserve to get paid.
If your contract has specific payment dates outlined, that are not being met, all the better! You use that to your advantage. And I would most likely try to communicate via email - something with a paper trail is always nice to have in case it's needed in the future. Hopefully doesn't come to that....but...
and It doesn't have to be confrontational - a professional email will do (factual, never emotional).
Good luck!
