What is the minimum wage for a Florida waitress?

Thanks for asking! On January 1, 2009 the Florida minimum wage increase from $6.79 to $7.21 per hour. Also effective on that date, the minimum wage for tipped workers in Florida is $4.19 per hour. Most food servers qualify as tipped employees.

Keep in mind that tipped employees must average $7.21 per hour over the payroll period, counting tips and wages. If they do not, the employer must pay the difference in wages.

Also, on July 24, 2009 when the federal minimum wage increases to $7.25, the Florida minimum wage will, as well. That is because under state law, the state minimum wage cannot be less than the federal minimum wage.
