Minimum Wage in Florida Set to Increase to $15.00 in 2026 (September 30, 2026)

On November 3, 2020, Florida voters approved Amendment 2, which amended Florida’s constitution to gradually increase the state’s minimum wage to $15 an hour by the year 2026. On September 30, 2025, the minimum hourly wage in Florida increased to $14.00.

Florida employers are permitted to take a tip credit of up to $3.02 per hour for tipped employees. Beginning September 30, 2025, the minimum hourly cash wage rate for eligible tipped employees will be $10.98.

Employers Remember:

Florida Statutes require 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. This poster requirement is in addition to the federal requirement (Fair Labor Standards Act Notice) to post a notice of the federal minimum wage.

Florida's minimum wage poster is available for downloading in English, Spanish, and Creole from the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity’s website at: http://www.floridajobs.org.
