| Subject: Idiots: Workers celebrate L.A.'s new $12 minimum wage Sat Jul 01, 2017 9:26 pm | |
| More than half a million Angelenos stand to get a raise this weekend, making the city the latest testing ground in the drive to boost incomes of bottom-rung workers.
Some businesses, facing a labor crunch, didn’t even wait for the new, $12 minimum wage to officially kick in.
Josh Loeb started doling out pay bumps among the 400 employees of his six mostly upscale restaurants about a month ago. He paid for it by inching up prices at those Santa Monica haunts, adding a dollar to an organic chicken, and 50 cents to a sandwich or salad.
“It’s got to come from somewhere,” said Loeb.
When the minimum wage in Los Angeles climbed from $10.50 to $12 an hour for large businesses on July 1, it marked the fourth such increase in three years, and the single largest year-over-year jump in the city’s scheduled climb to $15 for all employees by 2021.
