Florida Minimum Wage Increasing to $14/hour on Sept 30th

On September 30, 2025, the Florida minimum wage will increase to $14 per hour. The tipped minimum wage in Florida will increase to $10.98 because Florida employers are permitted to take a tip credit of up to $3.02 per hour for tipped employees. An employer that claims a tip credit must ensure that the employee receives enough tips from customers, and direct (or cash) wages per workweek to equal at least the minimum wage and overtime compensation required under the FLSA.

Why is it increasing? On November 3, 2020, Florida voters approved a constitutional amendment to gradually increase the state’s minimum wage each year until reaching $15.00 per hour in September 2026.

Poster Requirement. Section 448.109, Florida Statutes, requires employers who must pay their employees the Florida minimum wage to post a minimum wage notice in a conspicuous and accessible place in each establishment where these employees work. Florida’s minimum wage notice is available for downloading in English, Spanish, and Creole from the Florida Department of Commerce’s website at https://www.floridajobs.org/business-growth-and-partnerships/for-employers/display-posters-andrequired-notices. The latest 2025 minimum wage poster should be available in the next week.
