    Every January, Washington and Seattle’s minimum wages increase. Today, the minimum wage in Washington is $17.13/hour. If you work in Seattle, it is $21.30.

  • PSST:

    Almost all workers in Washington currently earn paid sick and safe leave so they can take care of themselves and their families.

  • Wage theft:

    Wage theft is illegal. if you have been asked to work off the clock, been paid less than an agreed-upon wage, or received a paycheck withheld – you have experienced wage theft.

  • Fair chance employment:

    All workers have a fair chance to apply for a job without being asked about their criminal history right away.

Introducing

Working Washington Rights Center

(formerly Fair Work Center)

Worker power changes everything.

New name. New look. Same mission. Same commitment to building worker power to win the world we all deserve!

Fair Work Center is rebranding to Working Washington Rights Center, and our new website is under construction to better reflect the work we do every day: supporting workers, strengthening labor standards, and advancing economic justice.

The new website will make it easier to learn about our work and our history, and better reflect how the work we do connects to our sister organization, Working Washington.
