Frequently Asked Questions in South Dakota

How is time-and-a-half overtime calculated in South Dakota?

In South Dakota, multiply your regular base hourly wage by 1.5. For example, if you make $11.85/hr, your overtime rate is $17.77/hr. Any hours worked past 40 hours in a single payroll workweek must be paid at this rate.

Can an employer in South Dakota refuse to pay overtime?

No. If you are classified as a non-exempt employee, your employer is legally required to pay overtime under both South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation statutes and federal FLSA regulations, regardless of whether the overtime was pre-approved.

Is overtime pay taxed differently in South Dakota?

Overtime is taxed as regular earned income. While your paystub may look like more taxes were withheld due to entering a higher weekly tax bracket, any excess withholding is balanced out on your annual tax return.
