What will be the miminum wage in Tennessee as of July, 2008???
This site says there is no state law for minimum wage in Tennessee. http://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.h… Therefore the federal law applies: The federal minimum wage provisions for covered, nonexempt employees are contained in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2007 included phased increases to the federal minimum wage. For work performed prior to July 24, 2007, the federal minimum wage is $5.15 per hour. For work performed from July 24, 2007 to July 23, 2008, the federal minimum wage is $5.85 per hour. For work performed from July 24, 2008 to July 23, 2009, the federal minimum wage is $6.55 per hour. For work performed on or after July 24, 2009, the federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. http://www.dol.gov/elaws/faq/esa/flsa/00…
