Florida Minimum Wage Increases for Workers on September 30

Starting September 30, workers in Florida will get paid more.

The minimum wage will rise to $14 an hour for most workers and $10.98 for those who get tips.

This is because of a rule that voters approved in 2020 to gradually increase the minimum wage.

This increase continues a pattern of increases each year.

Eventually, the minimum wage is planned to hit $15 an hour in 2026.

After that, it will go up based on how much things cost in the future.

Florida's new minimum wage is much higher than the federal minimum wage.

Businesses that don't pay correctly can be fined.
