Summary of differences between federal and state regulations

The federal Fair Labor Standards Act does not require payment for time not worked, nor does it regulate vacation pay, holiday pay, or other paid time off. These types of benefits are 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 Carolina law doesn’t require employers to pay employees for jury duty.

South Carolina law requires state employees to be paid for jury duty. The employee also keeps any jury fees and travel payment.

Paid time off (PTO)

South Carolina law does not require vacation pay. However, if an employer chooses to provide paid time off benefits, it must follow the terms and conditions established in its policy. Employers must notify employees in writing of any benefit policies.

Respond to a subpoena

South Carolina law provides that employers of victims and witnesses must not retaliate against or suspend or reduce the wages and benefits of a victim or witness who lawfully responds to a subpoena. If employers willfully violate this provision, they will be held in contempt of court.

Voting

South Carolina doesn’t have a time-off-for-voting provision.
