I. Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) Background and Requirements for Determining Annual Increases to the Minimum Wage Rate

Amy DeBisschop, Director, Division of Regulations, Legislation, and

Interpretation, Wage and Hour Division, U.S. Department of Labor, Room S-

3502, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20210; telephone: (202)

On April 27, 2021, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. signed Executive Order 14026

(/executive-order/14026), “Increasing the Minimum Wage for Federal

Contractors.” 86 FR 22835 (/citation/86-FR-22835). In relevant part, Executive

Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) raised the hourly minimum wage paid by federal contractors to workers performing work on or in connection with certain covered Federal contracts to $15.00 per hour, beginning January 30, 2022, with annual adjustments for inflation thereafter in amounts determined by the

Secretary of Labor. Id.

Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) directed the Secretary to issue regulations to implement the order's requirements. See86 FR 22836

(/citation/86-FR-22836). Accordingly, after engaging in notice-and-comment rulemaking, the Department published a final rule on November 24, 2021, implementing Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026). See86 FR 67126

(/citation/86-FR-67126). The final regulations, set forth at 29 CFR part 23

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/part-23), established standards and procedures for implementing and enforcing the minimum wage protections of

Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026).[1]

Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) and its implementing regulations require the Secretary to determine the applicable minimum wage rate for workers performing work on or in connection with covered contracts on an annual basis, beginning January 1, 2023. See86 FR 22835-36 (/citation/86-FR-

22835); see also29 CFR 23.10(b)(2) (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-

29/section-23.10#p-23.10(b)(2)), 23.50(a)(2)

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.50#p-23.50(a)(2)), 23.120(a)

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.120#p-23.120(a)). Sections

2(a) and (b) of Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) establish the methodology that the Secretary must use to determine the annual inflation-based increases to the minimum wage rate. See86 FR 22835-36 (/citation/86-FR-

22835). These provisions, which are implemented in 29 CFR 23.50(b)(2)

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.50#p-23.50(b)(2)), explain that the applicable minimum wage determined by the Secretary for each calendar year shall be:

8/29/23, 10:54 AM Federal Register :: Minimum Wage for Federal Contracts Covered by Executive Order 14026, Notice of Rate Change in Effect as… https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/09/30/2022-20906/minimum-wage-for-federal-contracts-covered-by-executive-order-14026-notice-of-r… 3/9

Not less than the amount in effect on the date of such determination;■

Increased from such amount by the annual percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI- W) (United States city average, all items, not seasonally adjusted), or its successor publication, as determined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS);

and

Rounded to the nearest multiple of $0.05.■

Section 2(b) of Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) further provides that, in calculating the annual percentage increase in the CPI-W for purposes of determining the new minimum wage rate, the Secretary shall compare such CPI-

W for the most recent month, quarter, or year available (as selected by the

Secretary prior to the first year for which a minimum wage is in effect) with the

CPI-W for the same month in the preceding year, the same quarter in the preceding year, or the preceding year, respectively. See86 FR 22835-36

(/citation/86-FR-22835). To calculate the annual percentage increase in the CPI-

W, the Department elected in its final rule implementing Executive Order 14026

(/executive-order/14026) to compare such CPI-W for the most recent year available with the CPI-W for the preceding year. See29 CFR 23.50(b)(2)(iii)

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.50#p-23.50(b)(2)(iii)).

Consistent with the regulations implementing Executive Order 13658

(/executive-order/13658), see29 CFR 10.5 (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-

29/section-10.5), the Department explained that it decided to compare the CPI-

W for the most recent year available (instead of using the most recent month or quarter, as allowed by the order) with the CPI-W for the preceding year, “to minimize the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the Executive order minimum wage rate.” 86 FR 67167 (/citation/86-FR-67167).

Once a determination has been made with respect to the new minimum wage rate, Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) and its implementing regulations require the Secretary to notify the public of the applicable minimum wage rate on an annual basis at least 90 days before any new minimum wage takes effect. See86 FR 22835 (/citation/86-FR-22835); 29 CFR 23.50(a)(2)

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.50#p-23.50(a)(2)), 23.120(c)

(1) (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.120#p-23.120(c)(1)). The regulations explain that the Administrator of the Department's Wage and Hour

Division (the Administrator) will publish an annual notice in the Federal

Register stating the applicable minimum wage rate at least 90 days before any new minimum wage takes effect. See 29 CFR 23.120(c)(2)(i). Additionally, the regulations state that the Administrator will provide notice of the Executive

Order minimum wage rate on https://sam.gov/ content/ wage-determinations

(https://sam.gov/content/wage-determinations), or any successor site; on all wage determinations issued under the Davis-Bacon Act (DBA), 40 U.S.C. 3141

(https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/40/3141) et seq., and the Service

Contract Act (SCA), 41 U.S.C. 6701

(https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/41/6701) et seq.; and by other means the

Administrator deems appropriate. See29 CFR 23.120(c)(2)(ii)-(iv)

(https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-29/section-23.120#p-23.120(c)(2)(ii)).

8/29/23, 10:54 AM Federal Register :: Minimum Wage for Federal Contracts Covered by Executive Order 14026, Notice of Rate Change in Effect as… https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/09/30/2022-20906/minimum-wage-for-federal-contracts-covered-by-executive-order-14026-notice-of-r… 4/9

II. The 2023 Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) Minimum Wage Rate

Section 3 of Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) explains the application of the order to tipped workers. 86 FR 22836 (/citation/86-FR-

22836). It provides that for workers covered by section 2 of the order who are tipped employees pursuant to section 3(t) of the FLSA, 29 U.S.C. 203(t)

(https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/203), the cash wage that must be paid by an employer to such workers shall be at least: (i) $10.50 an hour, beginning on January 30, 2022; (ii) beginning January 1, 2023, 85 percent of the wage in effect under section 2 of the order, rounded to the nearest multiple of

$0.05; and (iii) beginning January 1, 2024, and for each subsequent year, 100 percent of the wage in effect under section 2 of the order. 86 FR 22836

(/citation/86-FR-22836). Where workers do not receive a sufficient additional amount of tips, when combined with the hourly cash wage paid by the employer, such that their total earnings are equal to the minimum wage under section 2 of the order, section 3 requires that the cash wage paid by the employer be increased such that the workers' total earnings equal the section 2 minimum wage. Id. Consistent with applicable law, if the wage required to be paid under the SCA, 41 U.S.C. 6701 (https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/41/6701) et seq., or any other applicable law or regulation is higher than the wage required by section 2 of the order, the employer must pay additional cash wages sufficient to meet the highest wage required to be paid. 86 FR 22836 (/citation/86-FR-

22836).

Because Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) is still in its first year of implementation, the Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) minimum wage and the cash wage required for tipped employees are currently at their initial amounts of $15.00 and $10.50 per hour, respectively.[2]

Using the methodology set forth in Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) and summarized above, the Department must first determine the annual percentage increase in the CPI-W (United States city average, all items, not seasonally adjusted), as published by BLS, to determine the new Executive

Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) minimum wage rate. In calculating the annual percentage increase in the CPI-W, the Department must compare the

CPI-W for the most recent year available with the CPI-W for the preceding year.

The Department therefore compares the percentage change in the CPI-W between the most recent year ( i.e., the most recent four quarters) and the prior year ( i.e., the four quarters preceding the most recent year). The Department then increases the current Executive Order minimum wage rate by the resulting annual percentage change and rounds to the nearest multiple of $0.05.

To determine the Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) minimum wage rate beginning January 1, 2023, the Department therefore calculated the

CPI-W for the most recent year by averaging the CPI-W for the four most recent quarters, which consist of the first two quarters of 2022 and the last two quarters of 2021 ( i.e., July 2021 through June 2022). This produced an average index Site Feedback https://www.federalregister.gov/executive-order/14026 https://www.federalregister.gov/executive-order/14026 https://www.federalregister.gov/citation/86-FR-22836 https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/29/203 https://www.federalregister.gov/citation/86-FR-22836 https://www.govinfo.gov/link/uscode/41/6701 https://www.federalregister.gov/citation/86-FR-22836 https://www.federalregister.gov/executive-order/14026 https://www.federalregister.gov/executive-order/14026 https://www.federalregister.gov/executive-order/14026 https://www.federalregister.gov/executive-order/14026 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/09/30/2022-20906/minimum-wage-for-federal-contracts-covered-by-executive-order-14026-notice-of-rate-change-in-effect

8/29/23, 10:54 AM Federal Register :: Minimum Wage for Federal Contracts Covered by Executive Order 14026, Notice of Rate Change in Effect as… https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/09/30/2022-20906/minimum-wage-for-federal-contracts-covered-by-executive-order-14026-notice-of-r… 5/9

III. The 2023 Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) Minimum Cash Wage for Tipped Employees

IV. Appendix level of 277.2779. The Department then compared that data to the average CPI-

W for the preceding year—257.0463—which consists of the first two quarters of

2021 and the last two quarters of 2020 ( i.e., July 2020 through June 2021).

Based on this methodology, the Department determined that the annual percentage increase in the CPI-W (United States city average, all items, not seasonally adjusted) was 7.871 percent ((277.2779 ÷ 257.0463) − 1). The

Department then applied that annual percentage increase of 7.871 percent to the current Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) minimum wage

($15.00 per hour), which resulted in an hourly wage rate of $16.181 (($15.00 ×

0.07871) + $15.00); however, pursuant to Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026), the updated minimum wage rate must be rounded to the nearest multiple of $0.05.

[3]

Accordingly, effective January 1, 2023, the new minimum wage rate that must generally be paid to workers performing on or in connection with contracts covered by Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) will be $16.20 per hour. A poster reflecting this new Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) minimum wage rate is set forth at Appendix B.

As noted above, section 3 of Executive Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) provides a methodology to determine the amount of the minimum hourly cash wage that must be paid to tipped employees performing on or in connection with covered contracts. In relevant part, section 3(a)(ii) of the Executive order specifies that, for calendar year 2023, the minimum hourly cash wage for tipped employees shall increase to 85 percent of the wage in effect under section 2 of the order, rounded to the nearest multiple of $0.05. See86 FR 22836 (/citation/86-

FR-22836); see also29 CFR 23.280(a)(1)(ii) (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-

29/section-23.280#p-23.280(a)(1)(ii)). Eighty-five percent of the new Executive

Order 14026 (/executive-order/14026) minimum wage rate of $16.20 is $13.77

($16.20 × 0.85). Because the Executive Order provides that the rate must be rounded to the nearest $0.05, the new minimum hourly cash wage for tipped workers performing on or in connection with covered contracts will—effective on

January 1, 2023—be $13.75 per hour.

The Appendix to this notice provides a chart of the CPI-W data published by BLS that the Department used to calculate the new Executive Order 14026

(/executive-order/14026) minimum wage rate based on the methodology explained herein.
