Effective January 1, 2024, South Dakota’s minimum wage for non-tipped employees will be $11.20 per hour, up from $10.80 per hour in calendar year 2023. For tipped employees, the hourly minimum wage for calendar year 2024 will be no less than $5.60 per hour, up from $5.40 in calendar year 2023. The changes were posted October 11 on the South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation (DLR) website. The state’s minimum wage is adjusted annually as a result of an initiated measure approved by South Dakota voters in 2014. Increases in the state minimum wage rate are based on the national cost of living index. State law requires the rate to be rounded up to the nearest five cents. With limited exceptions, South Dakota’s minimum wage applies regardless of the age of the employee, the number of hours worked each week, or length of employment.
