In 2018, 29 states will have a minimum wage higher than the federal minimum, keeping pace with the precedent set in 2017. 20 states will see their minimum wage increased in 2018, some of which can be attributed to cost-of-living accommodation and others which are pre-determined scheduled increases.
For your convenience, we’ve posted a comparison chart of all the 2017 minimum wage rates of all fifty states and their corresponding 2018 minimum wage rates, with the rates that will be increasing highlighted.
