Re: Pay increase regulations
There is no requirement for an employer to give employees a raise above the state minimum wage. However, if an employer does give out raises, then the manner in which they are done cannot be discriminatory (cannot be based on race, gender, religion, etc). Your mother may want to consider better paying employment if she has 16 good years of work history.
