Michigan Minimum Wage Increase: Starting January 2025

Starting January 1, 2025, Michigan’s minimum wage will increase from $10.33 to $12.48 per hour. This significant adjustment reflects the state’s effort to provide workers with wages that better align with rising living costs. Employees in industries such as retail, hospitality, and food service will benefit from the increase, helping them manage everyday expenses more effectively.

The new wage aims to enhance the financial well-being of Michigan’s workforce while stimulating local economies through increased consumer spending. With this change, Michigan continues its commitment to fair pay and economic growth, ensuring both workers and businesses thrive in a more sustainable and equitable environment.
