LANSING, Michigan — Minimum wage earners in Michigan will see their paychecks increase next year as the state's minimum wages increase.

Earlier this year, the Michigan Legislature passed last-minute legislation that changed the minimum wage laws in the state. It was a compromise that scaled back sick leave and wages for tipped workers in an effort to appease businesses and hospitality workers. That change altered the timeline for minimum wage increases for the next several years.

Beginning on Jan. 1, 2025, the state's minimum wage will increase from $12.48 to $13.73 per hour. That increase will also have effects on the state's tipped minimum and minor minimum wages. A timeline of the wage increases is listed below.
