Is your business prepared for a 12.5% increase in minimum wage?
On January 1st, 2020 the WA state minimum wage increases from $12 per hour to $13.50 per hour. How will the coming change affect your profitability, employees, and customers? Join us Tuesday, October 22 from 6 - 8 pm at the Blaine School District’s conference room where a Certified Business Advisor from WWU’s SBDC (Small Business Development Center) will share ways to proactively plan for the wage increase including:
- Should you consider raising prices, and if so, when?
- Does every employee get a raise or just those making minimum wage?
- Steps you can take to control labor costs
- How to prepare for conversations with employees
- Communicating with customers
There is no cost to participate in this important workshop!
