Nevada sets minimum wage statewide through constitutional and statutory provisions, preempting local wage ordinances and standardizing employer obligations.
NRS 608.250 and Article 15, Section 16 of the Nevada Constitution establish a uniform statewide minimum wage. As of July 2024, the minimum wage is $12.00 per hour for all employees regardless of health benefits offered. The state Labor Commissioner enforces wage rules, and local governments cannot enact higher minimum wages. Tipped employees must still receive the full minimum wage; Nevada does not permit a tip credit. Employers must post required wage notices and maintain accurate payroll records under NRS 608.115.
Minimum wage violations result in back pay, liquidated damages, civil penalties up to $5,000 per violation, and Labor Commissioner enforcement under NRS 608.195.
