Nevada’s Minimum Wage Will Rise on July 1st

Nevada’s minimum wage goes up July 1st. Assembly Bill 456 that passed in 2019 bumps the rate up 75 cents annually through 2024. That’s $3.75 over five years. On the first, minimum wage workers will get $8.00 an hour if the employee is offered qualifying health benefits, and $9.00 an hour if the employee isn’t offered qualifying health benefits. Daily overtime rates go up too, except for those employees exempted from overtime requirements.
