Missouri voters have approved a ballot proposition that will raise the state minimum wage to $15 by 2026 and require employers to provide employees one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked.
Often referred to as the "80/20 plus 30 rule," the Fair Labor Standards Act regulation made it more difficult for employers to claim a minimum wage tip credit.
Unless the rate of inflation unexpectedly goes down over the next three months, the New Jersey minimum wage could be at least $14.13 per hour for large employers and at least $12.93 for small and seasonal employers.
