Florida minimum wage in 2027.

Florida minimum wage rates

What the sources say

Article X, section 24 of the Florida Constitution says the state minimum wage increases to $10.00 on September 30, 2021, then each September 30 thereafter by $1.00 per hour "until the Minimum Wage reaches $15.00 per hour on September 30th, 2026." It adds that on September 30 of 2027 and each following September 30, the state Agency for Workforce Innovation will adjust the minimum wage for inflation. Counting $1.00 a year from $10.00, the rate before September 30, 2026 was $14.00 (our arithmetic from that text). The 2027 inflation adjustment is not published.

We did not read a state agency page for the tipped cash wage, so this page gives no tipped figure; the constitution allows a tip credit. Confirm current amounts with the Florida Department of Commerce or the U.S. Department of Labor.

Worked example

Full-time at $15.00, 40 hours a week. $600.00 a week, $1,200.00 every two weeks, $2,600.00 a month and $31,200.00 a year (2,080 hours), before tax.

Part-time at $15.00, 30 hours a week. $450.00 a week and $23,400.00 a year before tax.

What the change is worth. $14.00 to $15.00 is $1.00 more an hour (7.14%), or $2,080.00 more a year at 40 hours.

Limits of this page

The converter multiplies the hourly rate by your hours and 52 weeks, with monthly as one twelfth of the year. It is gross pay before tax and ignores overtime, unpaid time off and local minimum wages that are higher than the state rate. Cities and counties in some states set their own rates, so check the place where the work is done.
