Florida's minimum wage increases on January 1st

Thousands of Florida’s minimum wage workers will get a pay raise beginning January the 1st.

Florida's minimum wage is going up by 12 cents to $8.05 per hour beginning in 2015.
That means a minimum wage worker will get an extra $4.80 a week or about 250 dollars a year.
The minimum wage in Florida is adjusted every year to match increases in the cost of living.
That’s done under an amendment to the state constitution that was passed by voters in 2004.

Under that amendment, Florida employers must pay the higher of the state or federal minimum wage.
