San Francisco’s new minimum wage sets the double-digit standard

$10.24 San Francisco’s new minimum wage source

» Happy New Year, indeed. Starting Jan. 1, San Francisco’s minimum hourly wage will jump above the $10 mark for the first time. That’s about $3 higher than the federal minimum wage and higher than anywhere else in the country, due to the fact that the progressive city ties its minimum wage to inflation and the quite-high cost of living in the area. But with wage hikes, various fees and the sagging economy, employers might have to start laying off workers again to keep up.

So even if I end up serving coffee when I move there, at least it’ll be a decent wage.
