I have been working for a company for 6 years. I I have gotten several pay raises while are the previous minimum wage. Now that minimum wage has gone up, why does my previous pay raises not add onto the now new minimum wage? It's not a pay raise by minimum wage going up. It's a mandatory increase the employer has to provide. So why does my previous pay raises not increase?
If you receive above minimum wage then your employer is not required to legally give you any further raises and you must negotiate for anything else.
