2025 加州最低工資 ＆ 豁免薪資門檻一次看懂 💼💰
2025 年開始，加州的全州最低工資正式從 $16 → $16.50。無論公司規模大小，全部一視同仁。
🔹 1. 最低工資是多少？
2025 起，加州最低工資為：
$16.50 / 小時
✔ 不分 25 人以下與 26 人以上
✔ 任何在加州工作的時薪員工都適用
🔹 2. 那「豁免員工 Exempt」的薪資門檻呢？
如果公司把你歸為「Exempt」，你的最低年薪必須達到：
$68,640 / 年（= $5,720 / 月）
因為加州規定：豁免員工最低薪資 = 最低工資的兩倍 × 全職工時。
🔹 3. 如果不達標會怎麼樣？
- 雇主不能再把你當「exempt」
- 你會變成「non-exempt」：加班費、用餐休息規則全部適用
- 公司必須加薪、或重新歸屬你的職位
🔹 4. 怎麼知道自己屬於哪一種？
你可以看 Offer Letter 或 HR 系統裡的類別：
- Exempt：不打卡、不計時、不給加班費
- Non-exempt：要打卡、按工時計算、加班要付錢
📌 小提醒
如果你的薪水剛好卡在 $65k～$68k 之間，2025 年一定要確認 HR 是否有調整。
