Arizona Minimum Wage To Increase by 50 Cents in 2024

Arizona’s minimum wage will climb to $14.35 per hour on January 1, 2024, a 50-cent increase from 2023. For small business owners in Flagstaff, local ordinances have set the minimum wage to $17.40 per hour. In a conversation with the Chamber Business News, NFIB State Director Chad Heinrich warned how these wage increases exacerbate the pressures small business owners are facing. “Job creators are already grappling with increased costs thanks to an inflation rate that remains stubbornly high,” he said. “The low unemployment rate, though, means employers are fighting to attract talent, which leads to bigger paychecks for jobseekers. Market forces are leading to increased wages – mandates just make hiring more expensive.” CLICK HERE to read the full article.
