For those who follow the blog, I noted last year that Seattle was making moves to increase its minimum wage. (Seattle Minimum Wage To Increase in 2015 - Blog). As a reminder, that minimum wage increase for Seattle employees took effect on April 1, 2015. I would remind employers to take steps to ensure they are now in compliance with the new minimum wage rates, as failure to comply exposes any employer to liability. Liability that could be easily avoided, I might add, if employers took steps to ensure they stayed up to date with this new law.
Also of note, Seattle's Office of Labor Standards also released its final regulations under the new Wage Ordinance.
