Report Link New Nevada Minimum Wage(s) Take Effect July 1.
Fisher & Phillips, LLP - April 07, 2009
On April 1, 2009, the Nevada State Labor Commissioner issued his annual wage bulletins that outline increases in Nevada's two-tiered minimum wage rates. Currently, the state's minimum wage is either $5.85 or $6.85 per hour, depending on whether an employer offers qualified health benefits to its employees, but these will increase this summer. Coupled with a scheduled increase in the federal minimum wage, the situation is potentially confusing.

On July 1, 2008, Nevada’s two-tiered minimum wage will increase to $5.85 per hour for employees to whom qualifying health benefits have been made available by their employers (tier-1), and to $6.85 per hour for all other employees (tier-2). These increases are the results of the annual adjustment required by the Nevada Constitution.

On November 7, 2006, the voters of six states passed ballot initiatives to raise the state minimum wage above the current federal minimum wage of $5.15 an hour. These states include Arizona, Colorado, Ohio, Missouri, Montana and Nevada. The Nevada initiative, entitled "Raise the Minimum Wage for Working Nevadans Act," was presented as an amendment to the Nevada Constitution and listed on the ballot as Question 6.
Report Link New Nevada Minimum Wage Also Affects Daily Overtime Pay Requirement.
Jackson Lewis LLP - November 14, 2006
On Election Day 2006, voters in Nevada approved an increase in the state's minimum wage, effective November 28, 2006, from $5.15 per hour to $6.15 per hour for employers who do not provide a qualified health insurance plan. Employers providing a qualified health insurance plan (defined as one providing coverage for employees and their dependents with a cost to the employee not exceeding 10% of the employee's gross taxable income) can continue to pay the $5.15 hourly rate.
