Summary of difference between federal and state regulations
The Fair Labor Standards Act does not require payment for time not worked. This type of benefit is generally a matter of agreement between an employer and an employee (or the employee’s representative). Employers, however, do need to comply with applicable state laws.
Jury duty
South Dakota law doesn’t require employers to pay employees for jury duty.
South Dakota law requires state employees to be paid for jury duty. The employee also keeps any jury fees and travel payment.
Voting
South Dakota law allows employees two hours off to vote. Pay deductions are not allowed. This time off for voting doesn’t apply if there are two consecutive nonworking hours before or after the shift to vote. Employer can specify the hours taken off.
