The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors will soon consider a proposal to increase the minimum wage to $25 an hour for hotel and theme park workers in unincorporated areas. The wage would rise to $30 an hour by 2028, coinciding with the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors will soon consider a proposal requiring hotel and theme park workers in unincorporated areas to be paid at least $25 an hour, rising to $30 an hour by 2028, when the Summer Olympics will be held in Los Angeles.
At the same time, hoteliers benefit from county investments in beaches and parks, attracting tourists to the region, and theme parks benefit from special zoning privileges, giving the county a vested interest in how their workers are paid, Hahn said.The measure would apply to employees of Universal Studios Hollywood and Six Flags Magic Mountain, and people working at hotels with more than 60 rooms.L.A.
“A $25 minimum wage, up from the current minimum wage of $16.90, would not make these workers rich, but it would make their lives a little easier and may mean that they don’t need to work multiple jobs just to stay in their homes,”If Hahn’s motion passes, county staff will draft the Tourism Worker Retention Minimum Wage Ordinance in 45 days. The supervisors would then vote on the ordinance. It was unclear how soon the ordinance would go into effect if passed.
The board should complete an economic impact analysis, like cities with similar proposals, before moving forward, Rozman said.
