Maryland’s minimum wage has now been rasied to $9.25 per hour, a 50-cent increase, as part of incremental increases approved in 2014 by Governorner Martni O'Malley to take place over several years. Next year, the minimum wage is set to increase to $10.10 per hour.
Montgomery County has also increased its minimum wage from $10.75 to $11.50 an hour.
Prince George’s County is going to increase its minimum wage from $10.75 to $11.50 an hour in October 2017.
Maryland laws levy stiff penalties against employers who fail to pay the minimum wage, so you have protections if an employer has taken advantage of you. If you are owed wages to which you are legally entitled, contact Lebau & Neuworth at at (410) 296-3030 or lebauneuworth.com/contact-us.
