Alameda County is considering a minimum wage increase. The proposed wage is $30 per hour, which would be the first of its kind in the nation. The plan has different requirements for businesses of different sizes.
Larger employers would need to implement the $30 hourly wage sooner. Smaller businesses would have more time to comply, with over a decade to reach the new wage. For more information on the proposal, readers can refer to the source.
