Hi everyone.

We wanted to put out some information about sub-minimum wages. In Washington State, for the most part, it has now been outlawed except for minors, certain apprentices, and student workers.

But federally, it is still allowed. To learn more, feel free to click the link:

Hola a todos.

Queríamos compartir información sobre los salarios inferiores al mínimo. En el estado de Washington, esta práctica ha sido prohibida en su mayor parte, salvo para menores de edad, ciertos aprendices y estudiantes que trabajan.

Sin embargo, a nivel federal todavía está permitida. Para obtener más información, puede hacer clic en el siguiente enlace: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/special-employment
