PA Minimum Wage
Connie Wolf • March 3, 2026

Did you know that there is a minimum wage in our state?


The minimum wage in PA is $7.25 per hour matching the federal minimum wage set in 2009. However, the minimum cash wage for tipped employees is $2.83 per hour. There are certain professional, administrative and executive roles that are exempt from minimum wage and overtime requirements if they meet specific salary and duty tests. As of now legislative proposals are ongoing to increase this rate.
