You'll still get the same net pay each year with either method. It's just you'll get paid less for months with a lower number of working days. eg You'll get paid more in July than February

Edit In fact you might even be better off on a leap year!

A year last for 365.2422 days
On average a year has 5/7 working days
That is 260.8873 days on average (to 4 decimal places)
So on say a salary of £20000 you get an average yearly pay of £20068.25
So on average £68.25 a year better off.
