As of January 1, 2024, the minimum wage in Phoenix, Arizona is $14.35 per hour, up from the previous rate of $13.85. This rate is higher than the Federal Minimum Wage and applies to most employees in Arizona, including tipped employees, who may be paid a lower hourly rate provided their wages plus tips meet the full minimum wage. The increase is a result of The Fair Wages and Healthy Families Act, which adjusts the minimum wage annually based on the Consumer Price Index to keep pace with inflation.
