How much does a waiter earn per hour?
the federal minimum wage has been $5.85 per hour since 24th July 2007. Many states and municipalities have minimum wages higher than this, but some U.S. territories such as American Samoa are exempt. Some types of labor are also exempt, and tipped labor must be paid a minimum of $2.13 per hour, as long as the hourly wage plus tipped income result in a minimum of $5.85 per hour.
