Kansas Tipped Minimum Wage Laws for 2016, 2017. Kansas' normal state minimum wage rate is $7.25 per hour. Kansas labor law allows tipped employees to be paid a lower cash wage than the standard Kansas minimum wage by their employers, as up to $5.12 in tips earned per hour can be deducted from their wage as a Tip Credit.
A supporter of raising the minimum wage listened as the Kansas City City Council debated the issue Thursday afternoon at City Hall. After more than three months of furious debate, the Kansas City Council voted 12-1 Thursday for a minimum wage increase that calls for $13 per hour by 2020. RICH SUGG rsugg@kcstar.com.
