On January 1, 2025, the minimum wage in Maine will increase to $14.65 per hour. The minimum base wage for tipped employees will increase to $7.33 per hour.
The minimum salary threshold for exempt employees will increase to $1,128 per week, or $58,656 per year (the amount required by federal law because Maine’s salary threshold is less).
Also starting on January 1, 2025, to take a tip credit, an employee must make more than $185 per month in tips.
The Maine Department of Labor announced these rates on September 11, 2024 here.
