Deduction of employees' share.
The employer's share of the contribution required to be paid by
the state to the federal government under the provisions of Public
Law 734 and applicable provisions of the Federal Internal Revenue
Code, as authorized by Title 51 of the Oklahoma Statutes beginning
at Section 121, shall be reserved out of funds available for
salaries appropriated or dedicated to each state department,
institution or agency at the time payrolls are prepared for payment
and shall be set aside in a reserve account in the State Treasury to
be paid to the federal government at such time or times as the
Federal Security Administrator may by regulations require.
For the purposes of Sections 211 through 215 of this title
"dedicated funds" shall include the State Highway Construction and
Maintenance Fund, Employment Security Administration Fund,
Department of Human Services Administration Fund, revolving funds of
all state departments and institutions, Federal Grant-in-aid Funds,
Trust and Agency Funds, and any other operating funds of state
agencies through which public money is disbursed for specific
purposes which do not require specific legislative appropriations to
be made.
State agencies making payment of salaries or wages to state
employees, independent of the Office of Management and Enterprise
Services, shall deduct the employees' share of the contribution at
the time payments are made and shall at the same time set up a
reserve out of the same fund for the employer's share to guarantee
the availability of funds when the social security report is

required to be made.  Any funds received for per diem, travel
reimbursement, or expenses incurred while in the performance of
official duties and specified statutory amounts received by board or
commission members shall not be considered compensation.
