Important Notice Regarding Minimum Wage Updates

Please review the updated minimum wage information carefully to ensure accuracy before implementing any changes, as rates can vary frequently by jurisdiction. Green Leaf provides this information as a courtesy and assumes no liability for inaccuracies or for ensuring compliance with minimum wage regulations. It is the employer's responsibility to understand and comply with the minimum wage laws applicable to their employees.


To calculate the minimum salary for an employee to be considered exempt, the general formula is: Exempt Salary= (Minimum Wage per Hour) × 2080 (Number of Work Hours) × 2


 If necessary, update employee pay rates in RUN before January 1, 2025. Additionally, ensure that updated minimum wage notices are posted in each work location, as required by law.
