During his January 2015 speech, President Obama mentioned wanting to see a small hike in the current federal minimum wage per hour (the wage varies in states).
In Seattle, the mayor announced a plan to incrementally increase the minimum wage in his city over a span of between three years and seven years to up to $15 per hour.
It seems inevitable that minimum wage employees will be able to look forward to higher wages in the near future.
You’ve got your small business going, but now you are looking to hire some help. Are you worried about finding the right help, and even where to look?
It’s not a bad idea to consider hiring older workers, those that have retired from their careers but still looking to work.
Hiring has always been a bit of a gamble … after all, someone may sound great on paper and perform wonderfully at the interview, but when it comes down to job performance, they may fail.
As a result, it’s important to do as much homework as possible upfront when seeking out new employees.
