Isn’t Minimum wage $15.00 unless insurance is provided then it’s $ 13.50 per hour?
(Maybe i’m wrong) I just think that if you want to find a good employee you have to offer more incentive.

Thanks for weighing in Beckyjo! We are not located in the City of Seattle so the new minimum wage regulations do not apply to us. That said, we are hoping to grow in support and impact and we work toward making all of our staff salaries more competitive.
