The minimum wage for Nevadans will increase in just a few months.

Assembly Bill 456, which passed the Nevada Legislature in 2019 and takes effect July 1, increases the minimum wage in increments of 75 cents an hour annually through 2024.

Starting July 1, the minimum wage will be $9.50 an hour for employees receiving health benefits and $10.50 an hourĀ for those without health benefits, according to the state Office of the Labor Commissioner.

Overtime rates will also increase beginning July 1, except for employees who are exempted from overtime requirements.

The annual bulletins for minimum wage and overtime can be found at http://labor.nv.gov.
