The Ordinance also sets minimum wages for West Hollywood employees, which varies based on whether the employer is a hotel, and whether the employer has at least 50 employees.  The minimum wage for hotel employees is $17.64, and may increase starting July 1, 2023 based on the Consumer Price Index.  As of July 1, 2022, the minimum wage for non-hotel West Hollywood employees increased to $16.50 per hour (for employers with at least 50 employees) or $16.00 per hour (for employers with less than 50 employees).  The minimum wage for non-hotel employees in the City increases on January 1, 2023, and again on July 1, 2023.  Employers are also required to post the City Minimum Wage bulletin in the workplace.


Currently, 30 states and Washington D.C. have minimum wages above the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. Five states have not adopted a state minimum wage: Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Tennessee. Two states, Georgia and Wyoming, have a minimum wage below $7.25 per hour.
