Bill Summary
This bill prohibits the payment of subminimum wages to an employee.
AI Summary
This bill prohibits the payment of subminimum wages to employees. It repeals and reenacts the existing law on minimum hourly rate, stating that no person, firm, or corporation shall employ any employee at an hourly rate lower than the federal minimum wage, except as provided by statute. The bill also amends the law on payment of subminimum wages, removing the exception for individuals with disabilities. The legislation is expected to have an indeterminable increase in revenue for the state due to potential fines assessed against employers for non-compliance, but the impact on state, county, or local expenditures is unlikely to be material.
