What is the minimum wage in Minneapolis?

Minneapolis sets a citywide minimum wage of 15.57 dollars per hour for large employers, above the lower Minnesota statewide minimum. If your rate is below this, the calculator flags it as under the local floor.

How is overtime calculated?

Under federal and Minnesota rules, hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek are paid at 1.5 times your regular rate. The tool splits your weekly hours into the first 40 at base rate and the rest at time-and-a-half.

How does the tip credit work in Minnesota?

Minnesota does not allow a tip credit. Employers must pay the full minimum wage regardless of tips earned, so tips are on top of, not part of, your base hourly pay. This makes Minnesota more generous than tip-credit states.

Does the annual figure account for taxes?

No. The annual estimate is gross pay before federal, Minnesota state, and payroll taxes. It multiplies your weekly gross by 52 weeks and assumes a consistent schedule, so your take-home will be lower.

Minneapolis Minimum Wage & Overtime Calculator

Check your Minneapolis pay and overtime

Minneapolis maintains its own minimum wage above the Minnesota statewide rate, and overtime kicks in once you pass 40 hours in a week. This calculator confirms whether your hourly rate meets the local floor, computes time-and-a-half overtime, and projects your weekly and annual gross pay.

How it works

Hours up to 40 per week are paid at your regular rate. Any hours beyond 40 are paid at 1.5 times that rate, as required by federal and Minnesota labor law. The tool also compares your rate against the Minneapolis large-employer minimum of 15.57 dollars per hour.

regularHours  = min(hours, 40)
overtimeHours = max(hours - 40, 0)
regularPay    = regularHours * rate
overtimePay   = overtimeHours * rate * 1.5
weeklyGross   = regularPay + overtimePay
annualGross   = weeklyGross * 52

Because Minnesota does not allow a tip credit, tipped workers must still be paid the full minimum wage as their base, with tips on top.

Tips and example

At the 15.57 dollar minimum, a 40-hour week earns 622.80 dollars. Work 48 hours and the extra 8 hours pay 23.36 dollars each (time-and-a-half), adding 186.84 dollars for a 809.64 dollar week. Over a full year of 48-hour weeks that is about 42,100 dollars gross. If you enter a rate below 15.57 dollars, the tool warns that it falls under the Minneapolis large-employer minimum.
