Federal minimum wage is the lowest wage an employer is allowed to pay their employees. The Federal Labor Standards Act (FLSA) was established in 1938 to protect workers and ensure they earn a fair wage for their work.
The minimum wage rate is determined by the government. Some states adhere to the federal guidelines, while others set their own minimum wage rates. Because of this, it can be challenging for businesses with employees across multiple states to stay on top of all the minimum wage changes.
Minimum Wage Guidelines
The federal minimum wage is currently $7.25 an hour. This rate has been in place since July 24, 2009, when it was increased from $6.55 an hour.
Regardless of the federal rate, each state can set its own minimum wage for workers, and sometimes these wages can even vary by city and county. State minimum wage rates are typically governed by each individual state’s legislative activities.
According to the Department of Labor (DOL), states have to adhere to the federal minimum wage law if their state minimum wage is lower than the federal rate.
If a state, city, or county has a minimum wage greater than $7.25, employers are required to pay that higher rate to employees.
Here are some minimum wage increases to be aware of for 2026.
