Wyoming Labor Burden FAQ

What is the labor burden rate in Wyoming?
In Wyoming, the employer labor burden combines federal taxes (FICA 7.65%, FUTA 0.6%) with the state unemployment (SUI) rate — estimated around 1.0% for new employers on a $30,900 wage base — plus workers compensation, benefits, and overhead. Most Wyoming employers land between 15% and 30% total burden. Every rate is editable in the calculator above.
How is the fully burdened rate calculated in Wyoming?
Add all employer costs as a percentage of the base wage, then multiply the pay rate by (1 + total burden). The calculator pre-fills Wyoming's SUI estimate and lets you adjust workers comp and benefits to match your business.
Does Wyoming have a state income tax?
No. Wyoming has no state income tax on wages. That affects worker take-home (see the 1099 vs W2 calculator) but not the employer's labor burden, which is driven by SUI, workers comp, and benefits.
Are these numbers tax advice?
No. These are editable 2025 estimates. Wyoming SUI rates are experience-rated per employer and workers comp varies by class code — confirm with a licensed accountant.
