Anyone making minimum wage while working for a private employer is less than a week away from a raise.
In 2018, voters approved Proposition B, which increases the state’s minimum wage for private employers by 85 cents per year through 2023. This means the minimum wage starting New Year’s Day is $10.30 per hour.
If you are a tipped employee, your employer must make sure your compensation totals at least $10.30 per hour.
The Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations released the following press statement:
The Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations announces the state minimum wage rate for 2021 has been established, according to state law, at $10.30 per hour, effective January 1, 2021.
Pursuant to Proposition B, which was approved by Missouri voters on November 6, 2018, the minimum wage will increase 85 cents per hour each year through 2023. All private businesses are required to pay at a minimum, the $10.30 hourly rate, except retail and service businesses whose gross annual sales are less than $500,000.
Missouri‘s minimum wage law does not apply to public employers, nor does it allow the state’s minimum wage rate to be lower than the federal minimum wage rate.
Compensation for tipped employees must also total at least $10.30 per hour. Employers are required to pay tipped employees at least 50 percent of the minimum wage, plus any amount necessary to bring the employee’s total compensation to a minimum of $10.30 per hour.
