Nevada’s minimum wage is now $12 per hour as of July 1, following a 75-cent increase from the previous $11.25 rate. This change is part of the final increment mandated by Assembly Bill 456, passed in 2019.
This increase eliminates the previous two-tiered system, which offered a lower wage to employees with qualifying health benefits.
A constitutional amendment approved by voters in November 2022 established a $12 minimum wage for all employees, regardless of health benefits.
Additionally, this wage increase has affected daily overtime rates. Employees earning less than $18 per hour are now eligible for overtime pay at one-and-a-half times their regular rate for over eight hours in a day or 40 hours in a week.
