Montana is set to implement a new minimum wage rate of $10.30 per hour starting January 1, 2024. This increase positions Montana among 28 states with a minimum wage exceeding $10 an hour.
According to the Billings Gazette, “It is $3.05 higher than the federal minimum wage rate of $7.25 per hour, which has been at that rate since 2009, according to masslive.com. That represents the longest stretch the federal minimum wage has remained unchanged since it was established in 1938.”
The adjustment reflects ongoing discussions about living wages and economic standards across various states.
