What the Executive Order Requiring Federal Contractors to Pay a $15 Minimum Wage Will Mean
The upcoming rulemaking process should illuminate more.
It will take some time for the full scale and scope of President Biden’s recent executive order directing federal contractors to pay a $15 minimum wage for their workers starting next year to be seen.
Biden issued an executive order on April 27 that builds on one from President Obama in February 2014, which required federal contractors to pay their workers $10.10 per hour. Currently, the minimum wage for workers on federal contracts is $10.95 per hour and the tipped minimum wage is $7.65 per hour.
