Most Florida employers are aware that the Florida Minimum Wage Act imposes a higher minimum wage than is required by the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. As discussed in our January 3, 2008 Legal Alert, the state minimum wage increased on January 1 to $6.79 per hour (up from $6.67 per hour in 2007). This rate is higher than the current federal minimum wage rate of $5.85 per hour.
