Section 65. Minimum Wages.

AS 23.10.065. Minimum Wages.

(a) Except as provided under (b) of this section and as otherwise provided for in law, for work performed on or after January 1, 2003, an employer shall pay to each employee wages at a rate of not less than $7.15 an hour for hours worked in a pay period, whether the work is measured by time, piece, commission, or otherwise.

An employer may not apply fringe benefits as a credit toward payment of the minimum wage established under this subsection.

(c) Notwithstanding (b) of this section, an employer who contracts with the Department of Education and Early Development, a school district, or a regional educational attendance area to provide school bus transportation services is not required to adjust school bus driver wages under (b) of this section, except when entering into or renewing the contract.
