On Jan. 1, 2018, the minimum hourly wage for non-tipped employees in Michigan increases from $8.90 to $9.25 per hour. That’s a thirty-five cent increase, folks. The minimum wage for tipped employees increases by those same $0.35 to $3.52/hr from $3.38.
If you have tipped employees, you should already know (but it bears reminding) that tipped employees need to earn no less than the minimum wage for non-tipped workers. Meaning, an effective $9.25/hr. So, take their hours worked, multiply by 9.25, and If their tips don’t top them over that bogie, then you need to make up that shortfall.
Your friendly State gov’t has all of the details.
