“Minimum Wage Notice” (WH-1088).
Every employer with employees subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act's minimum wage provisions must post a notice explaining the Act. It must be available in a conspicuous place in all of their establishments so that employees may readily read it. The Fair Labor Standards Act (Pub.L. 75–718, ch. 676, 52 Stat. 1060) was signed in June 1938. The FLSA is the Federal law which sets minimum wage, overtime, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards.
The minimum wage for covered nonexempt workers is not less than $7.25 per hour effective July 24, 2009.

Executive Order 13658 was signed on February 12, 2014, and raised the hourly minimum wage for workers performing work on or in connection with covered federal contracts to $10.10 per hour, beginning January 1, 2015, with annual adjustments thereafter in an amount determined by the Secretary pursuant to the order. See79 FR 9851.
Note: As of the start of 2024, LRCC does not have covered federal contracts; however we may in the future and other colleges in the Virginia Community College System may be engaged in such contracts.
On April 27, 2021, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. signed Executive Order 14026, Increasing the Minimum Wage for Federal Contractors. 86 FR 22835. Executive Order 14026 establishes a higher hourly minimum wage of $15.00 per hour, beginning on January 30, 2022, and, beginning January 1, 2023, and annually thereafter, an amount determined by the Secretary in accordance with the order. This higher hourly minimum wage applies to the same types of contracts with the Federal Government that are covered by Executive Order 13658. However, Executive Order 14026 only applies to contracts with the Federal Government that are entered into on or after January 30, 2022, or that are renewed or extended (pursuant to an exercised option or otherwise) on or after January 30, 2022. For some amount of time, the Department therefore anticipates that there will be some existing contracts with the Federal Government that do not qualify as a covered “new contract” for purposes of Executive Order 14026 and thus will remain subject to the minimum wage requirements of Executive Order 13658.
The Department anticipates that, in the relatively near future, essentially all covered contracts with the Federal Government will qualify as “new” contracts under Executive Order 14026 and be subject to its higher minimum wage rate. Until such time, however, Executive Order 13658 and its regulations at 29 CFR part 10 must remain in place. Accordingly, the Department will continue announcing annual updates to Executive Order 13658's minimum wage rates for existing contracts still covered by Executive Order 13658.[2]
Note: As of the start of 2024, LRCC does not have covered federal contracts; however we may in the future and other colleges in the Virginia Community College System may be engaged in such contracts.
