The Minimum Wage: An Overview. Minimum wage laws establish a base level of pay that employers are required to pay certain covered employees. The current federal minimum wage is $6.55 per hour. The laws consist primarily of federal and state statutes.
As of January, 2015, Georgia and Wyoming have the lowest state minimum wage requirements, according to data from the U.S. Department of Labor. At $5.15 per hour, each state has a minimum wage more than $2.00 below the federal mark of $7.25. However, federal law dictates that the higher of either the state or federal minimum is legally applicable, which means that the enforceable minimum wage in both states is actually $7.25.
