So if you do the math, figuring that a salaried employee is expected to work a 45/ hour work week that figure salary is equal to the lowest level possible. In those areas that have the mandated $15/ minimum wage, salary employees will be making more than that, especially since their employees are all making $15/ hour and these salary employees will need a bit extra to take on the responsibility of both working the hours and the supervisor position over employees who earn $15/ hour for much less responsibility. Before this correction was made to the minimum salary level which now bases the level adjustment on the minimum wage in area, there was no way to adjust salary to be complacent with the law.
