UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR FRANCES PERKINS, Secretary WOMEN’S BUREAU MARY ANDERSON, Director ♦ |, STATE MINIMUM-WAGE LAWS AND ORDERS: 1940 s Second Supplement to Bulletin 167 ■ By FLORENCE P. SMITH r f SjTes©*. I UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE WASHINGTON : 1941 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. no. Price 5 cents STATE MINIMUM-WAGE LAWS AND ORDERS: 1940 Second Supplement to Bulletin 167 1 The following charts analyzing minimum-wage orders adopted in 1940 supplement Women’s Bureau Bulletin 167 and its 1939 supple ment. Since the passage in 1939 of the Maine and Alaska minimumwage laws and the reenactment of the Connecticut law 2 no States have adopted such legislation, and the total number of minimumwage laws remains at 29—26 States, the District of Columbia, Alaska, and Puerto Rico. The wage orders adopted in 1940 are fewer in number than those of 1939. Though most of them apply to workers for whom rates have not been set before, a few are revisions or modifications of earlier orders or reenactments to replace orders that were invalidated through court action, as in Pennsylvania and Utah, or through new legislation, as in Connecticut, where the 1939 law repealed the earlier act. States Having Minimum-Wage Laws Arizona. Arkansas. California. Colorado. Connecticut. Illinois. Kansas. Kentucky Louisiana. Maine. Massachusetts. Minnesota. Nevada. New Hampshire. New Jersey New York. North Dakota. Ohio. Oklahoma. Oregon. Pennsylvania. Rhode Island. South Dakota. Utah. Washington. Wisconsin. Immediately following is a summary of the industries to which State minimum-wage rates applied at the close of 1940. Classification is by industry or trade, in accordance with the usual practice of the States in issuing their orders. It should be noted that blanket orders for “any occupation” have been adopted in Kentucky, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, though Min nesota and Wisconsin have also issued separate orders for certain industries. Rates are fixed in five laws; two of these—Arkansas and South Dakota—enumerate the industries covered, and three.—Nevada, Alaska, and Puerto Rico—provide general coverage with few, if any, exemptions. 1 See also supplement for 1939. 2 The Maine law applies to one industry, fish packing, covers women and minors, and provides for a wage board to set wage rates; the Alaska act is general in coverage, applies to women over 18 years, and sets a flat wage; the Connecticut law was amended to apply to men as well as to women and minors. 301788°—41 1 2 STATE MINIMUM-WAGE LAWS AND ORDERS: 194 0 INDUSTRIES COVERED BY STATE MINIMUM-WAGE RATES MANUFACTURING In 16 States, the District of Columbia, Alaska, and Puerto Rico minimum-wage orders or laws apply to all manufacturing or to certain branches of manufacturing.
