Understanding Oklahoma Labor Laws

Oklahoma labor laws give employers the right to charge employees a higher minimum wage if they receive more tips than the actual legal minimum hourly wage. This practice is called an “employer’s tip credit” and is allowed by the state. Employers may also legally compensate workers for all or part of the extra money they receive from employees for tips. This is known as a “tip pool”tip allocation”.

Oklahoma labor laws are fairly similar to other states, including the requirement that all employers provide meal and rest breaks for employees.

Employees are entitled to a fifteen minute lunch break in addition to a fifteen-minute break during each five-hour period of employment. Oklahoma also provides employees with the right to be paid for twenty-four hours per day, with three hours of rest in between eight hours of work and eight hours of rest in between four hours of work. The right to a meal break is not required but if it is provided it must be done on the same day each week.

Oklahoma law requires that employers provide an employee with a legal minimum amount of pay for every hour worked.

These minimum pay requirements are referred to as “salary wage”, “wages”, “national average”regional average” wages. Oklahoma has two primary classification systems of employee pay, the first is based on the performance level of the worker and the second is based on the employer’s assessment of the worker’s ability to perform specific tasks within their job. This means that some jobs pay much more than others, depending on the employer’s perceptions of a worker’s capabilities.

Employees in several different state are covered by their state’s minimum wages and/or overtime laws.

Oklahoma labor laws also require employers to provide health benefits, such as dental care.

If a worker is unable to work due to illness or injury, the employer must provide full and fair recovery benefits. An employer may not penalize an employee for reporting a medical condition. A doctor’s note is not needed to provide these benefits.

An employer may not penalize an employee for refusing to receive health benefits.

Also, an employer may not refuse a sick leave or other leave for any other reason without proper notice. An employee can file a complaint with an employee relations department of the employer, and the employer must either accommodate the needs of the employee or not to terminate the employee’s employment due to being ill.
