What's the minimum wage in Florida?
Florida sets its minimum wage above the federal floor of $7.25/hr at $14/hr (2026). Employers must pay the higher of the two — federal vs. state — when both apply.
Some local jurisdictions and large employers may pay more than the state minimum: cities like Seattle, San Francisco, New York City, and Washington DC have their own higher wage floors, and many large retailers and fast-food chains have raised internal starting wages to $15–$18/hr regardless of state law. Tipped employees may have a lower direct cash wage as long as tips bring total earnings up to the standard minimum; if not, the employer must make up the difference.
Use the calculator above to convert between hourly, weekly, monthly, and annual figures — useful for budgeting, comparing job offers, or understanding how an hourly raise translates to gross income. For overtime (hours above 40/week), most non-exempt employees earn 1.5× their regular rate; some states (CA, AK, NV, CO) require overtime above 8 hours/day as well.
