Timing Requirements for Wage Payments in Oklahoma

All employers are covered by Oklahoma's wage payment law, except state or municipal corporations.

Wage payment must be made at least semimonthly, on regular paydays designated in advance by the employer. More frequent payment is permitted. State, county and municipal employees, as well as those management level employees who are exempt under the FLSA, must be paid at least once a calendar month. An interval of not more than 11 days may elapse between the end of the pay period worked and the regular payday designated by the employer. The employer is allowed three days after such payday in which to make payment as required.
