Minnesota's minimum-wage rates will be adjusted for inflation beginning Jan. 1, 2022, to $10.33 an hour for large employers and $8.42 an hour for other state minimum wages.
As of Jan. 1, 2021:
- Large employers must pay at least $10.33 an hour when the employer's annual gross revenues are $500,000 or more.
- Small employers must pay at least $8.42 an hour when the employer's annual gross revenues are less than $500,000.
- The training wage rate, $8.42 an hour, may be paid to employees younger than 20 years of age for the first 90 consecutive days of employment.
- The youth wage rate, $8.42 an hour, may be paid to employees younger than 18 years of age.
These state minimum-wage rates will not apply to work performed in the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, which have higher minimum-wage rates.
