Effective January 1, 2008, Washington's minimum wage will increase to $8.07. Washington law requires that the state minimum wage be adjusted each year acccording to the change in the federal Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers during the 12 months ending August 31. This year's 1.8 percent increase, applied to Washington's current minimum wage of $7.93 an hour, generated an increase of 14 cents in next year's minimum wage.
