Minimum Wage in Oklahoma: Weekly and Yearly Take-Home
Oklahoma's minimum wage is $7.25 an hour (US Department of Labor, rates in effect July 1, 2026). A full-time worker (40 hours a week) at that rate grosses $290.00 a week and takes home about $265.26 a week, or $13,793 a year, as a single filer with no deductions. About $133 of that yearly pay goes to state income tax and programs.
That is $15,080 over a full year, or roughly 33% of what the typical Oklahoma worker earns ($45,600 median).
Minimum wages are revised often. The hourly paycheck calculator handles any rate, and the Oklahoma labor department publishes the current one.
