The minimum wage law that took effect Monday guarantees at least $20-per-hour for workers at fast food restaurant chains with at least 60 locations nationwide.
Huh thats wild. Some of my coworkers are support staff and here they have some pretty decent wages, above cali minimum in a lower COL state. I have heard even here it’s highly volatile and the wage they get is determined by negotiations between the people hiring the staff and the fiscal intermediary as well as the depth of the IEPs and ISPs. If the person coordinating goes to bat for their support staff typically the wage can be good where I’m at.
In my old district in CT they negotiated a raise from the state minimum to $18.00 with a 32 hour maximum per week, but subsequently removed all the classroom behavioral specialists and therapists to compensate. It’s not a living wage here.
