Yes, in the Commonwealth it should "equal out" to at least $290.00 per week
per worker or $15,080.00 per year. (This assumes that each worker earns at least $30.00 or more in tips per month.)
The current minimum wage in Virginia is currently apparently the same as the federal minimum of $7.25 per hour.
