Starting May 6, 2026, this bill would raise Utah's minimum wage from its current level to $20 per hour for all public and private employees, and it would require the state Labor Commission to adjust that wage for inflation at least once a year while never allowing the wage to fall below $20 per hour. It would also require employers with 15 or more workers to disclose, in every job listing, the minimum and maximum pay for the position along with any additional benefits an employee could receive, such as bonuses, stock, bonds, equity, or company ownership. Additionally, the bill would limit cities, towns, and counties to setting local minimum wages no higher than this new state minimum wage, and it would remove the Labor Commission's ability to set a lower minimum wage specifically for minors.
