The North Dakota minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, the same as the federal minimum wage. Employers may utilize a tip credit of 33% of the minimum wage for tipped employees. With the tip credit applied, the minimum direct wage payable to a tipped employee is $4.86 per hour effective July 24, 2009. The employer must maintain written records verifying that tipped employee receive at least the full minimum wage for all hours worked when the direct wage and tips are combined. A minimum 30-minute meal period must be provided in shifts exceeding five hours when there are two or more employees on duty.*
Overtime Law: Overtime pay must be paid at one and one-half times the employee’s regular rate of pay for hours worked over forty in any work week. Employees may waive their right to a meal period upon agreement with the employer. Employees do not have to be paid for meal periods if they are completely relieved of their duties and the meal period is at least thirty minutes in length. Employees are not completely relieved if they are required to perform any duties during the meal period. Other breaks (such as 15 minute “coffee” breaks) are not required by law, but must be paid breaks if they are offered by the employer.*
