: Northwest Business Litigation BlogFederal minimum wage increases to $7.25
By Stacey Mark
Effective July 24, 2009, the federal minimum wage increases to $7.25 per hour. This is the last of three wage increases imposed under the Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2007. The federal minimum wage has not caught up to Oregon, where the minimum wage is $8.40 per hour. Employers that are subject to both Oregon and federal law must pay the the higher minimum wage to Oregon employees.
