Minimum Wage Law

The act establishes a minimum wage that employers must pay covered employees, and defines the terms used to determine who and what falls within its reach. Administration rests with the state labor department, whose director is empowered to issue and revise regulations carrying out the act's purposes, preventing circumvention or evasion of its requirements, and safeguarding the wage floor it sets. It also excludes time spent participating in a ridesharing arrangement from the act's application, and provides that if any provision is held invalid the remainder stays in force.
