Minimum wage laws set the lowest hourly rate that employers can legally pay their employees. These laws are designed to provide a baseline standard of living for workers and are enforced at both federal and state levels.

Your Rights Under Minimum Wage Laws

In Los Angeles and throughout California, employees are guaranteed a minimum wage that is often higher than the federal rate. Employers who fail to pay the appropriate minimum wage are violating the law and can be held accountable. Workers affected by such violations are entitled to recover the difference between what they were paid and what they should have been paid under the law.
