Reminder: Johnson County recommended minimum wage increased to $12.64 per hour July 1, 2024
The Johnson County Board of Supervisors reminds business owners and the public that the County’s recommended minimum wage has increased to $12.64 per hour, effective Monday, July 1, 2024. In March of 2024, Supervisors voted to increase the County’s recommended minimum wage using the Consumer Price Index data to set the increase, which is based on inflation.
Though the wage increase is symbolic in nature and unenforceable under State law, the Supervisors approved the increase to remain in line with their vote in September 2015 to begin phased increases.
