Increasing the Kansas minimum wage to $15 an hour.

Summary

HB 2151 proposes amending Kansas labor statutes to set a $15‑per‑hour minimum wage for most workers, superseding the existing $7.25 minimum. The bill defines who counts as an employee and lists several exemptions, such as agricultural workers, domestic service staff, certain executive or professional roles, federal employees, volunteers, and part‑time workers under 18. It also retains a tip‑credit provision that allows employers to count tips toward the minimum wage under specific conditions.
