South Dakota employers paying into the unemployment insurance system must pay an "investment fee" on their payroll, and this bill allows employers to opt out of paying this fee by following procedures described in a new section of law. Currently, all covered employers must pay this fee unless they reimburse the unemployment trust fund directly instead of paying contributions, but the bill creates a new option for employers to stop paying it entirely.
