Increased Minimum Wage and Paid Sick Leave: It's Not Just for Cities Anymore |
 |
| In recent years, a wave of new laws has been seen in cities across the country increasing the minimum wage for workers in each locality as well as requiring employers to provide workers with paid sick leave. A number of cities in Washington State joined in this trend. For example, existing Seattle law provides for an increase in the applicable local minimum wage -- phased in over time -- to $15.00 an hour, while Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane are among the cities that require employers to provide employees with paid sick leave. |
