LA County Code Title 8.105, paired with the countywide minimum wage at Title 8.100, sets a higher hotel-worker living wage for non-managerial staff at unincorporated hotels with 50-plus rooms. Rates track the LA City hotel wage and adjust each July.
Adopted as Ordinance 2014-0024 and codified at LA County Code Title 8.105, the hotel worker living wage covers non-managerial, non-supervisory staff at lodging properties with 50 or more guest rooms in unincorporated LA County. The rate is benchmarked to the City of Los Angeles hotel minimum wage under LAMC Section 186.02 and rises on a published schedule that is heading toward $30 per hour by July 2028 with a separate healthcare contribution. The Department of Consumer and Business Affairs Wage Enforcement Bureau publishes the current rate, audits payroll, and accepts complaints. The countywide general minimum wage at Title 8.100 sets the floor for other unincorporated workplaces.
Underpayment exposes operators to back wages, restitution, treble damages, civil penalties, retaliation penalties, and possible suspension of the county business license under LA County Code Title 8.105.
