Employers should also know that Colorado law allows local governments to set a minimum wage higher than the state requirement. In 2024, the cities of Denver and Edgewater, along with unincorporated Boulder County, will have minimum wages higher than Colorado’s. You can find more information about the local rates in this Employers Council article.
Please check with your local government to learn more about any possible minimum wage increases. Employers Council will keep you informed as we discover them. We will also update members on minimum wage increases in the other states in the Employers Council region in a future article.
If you have any questions about Colorado’s minimum wage requirements or the COMPS Order, please contact the Employers Council Member Experience Team.
