Section 1: Federal Minimum Wage 1. The federal minimum wage shall be increased to $10.50 per hour, replacing the previous federal minimum wage. 2. The federal minimum wage shall apply to all working persons with a legal right to work in Nyland, or persons receiving legal compensation for work within Nyland, its states and territories, and its other sovereign soils. 3. The federal minimum wage shall be annually adjusted by the Department of Labor per Section 2 of this act. 4. The federal minimum wage shall take precedence and be enforceable over any state minimum wages lower than the established federal minimum wage. 5. There shall be no exception to the federal minimum wage anywhere except where outlined in Section 3 of this act. Section 2: Annual Wage Adjustment & Index 1. The Department of Labor shall be charged with administering, enforcing and adjusting the federal minimum wage by and for the provisions of this act. 2. The Department of Labor shall adjust the minimum wage annually, automatically, specifically and proportionally indexed to match inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). 3. CPI inflation calculations shall not include entertainment, medical insurance and healthcare costs. Section 3: Exceptions 1. Where a state's minimum wage is in excess of the federal minimum wage as outlined in this act, the state's minimum wage shall be enforced over the federal minimum wage. 2. For jobs and industries where the practice of "tipping" is common, the federal minimum wage shall be $3.60 an hour for only those jobs and positions that both receive and keep all tipping proceeds given to them; all other provisions of this act shall apply. 3. For jobs and industries where the practice of "tipping" is common, the federal minimum wage shall be $8.00 an hour; all other provisions of this act shall apply. 4. The employment by any person, company or other agency of a person with no legal right to work in Nyland et al shall not give that person/company/agency etc legal exception to act under the provisions of this law. 5. For work and industries where the practice of "tipping" is common, where accumulated wages and tips for any employees do not meet or exceed the federal minimum wage (or state minimum wage, whichever is higher) for any pay period, then the employer shall increase wages for that pay period to compensate, in an amount where the employee's new accumulated wages and tips meet or exceed the minimum wage.
