If there were no leap years this would occur only every 7 years (as there are 52 weeks and 1 day in each non-leap year). In reality you will have 53 pay periods (or 27 pay periods if you are a fortnightly payer) every 5 or 6 years.

E.g. In Australia...

If your payday is Thursday this year (2010) you will have 53 pay periods this financial year in Australia (1st July to 30 June), the next time this will occur is in the 2016 financial year.

Why is there 53 Thursdays and not 53 other days in the year?

A 365 day year is one week and one day. That means that the first and last day of the year are the same day of the week. So whatever day the year starts on, will have 53 of them and all other days will have 52. If a year starts on a Thursday, then there will be 53 Thursdays in that year. In the case of a leap year. The first and second day of the year will have 53 occurrences. So if a leap year starts on a Wednesday or Thursday there will be 53 Thursdays. If it starts on a Wednesday, there will also be 53 Wednesdays, and if it starts on a Thursday, there will also be 53 Fridays.
