Are You Getting A Raise?

On October 1st, 1996, over 4 million workers, many of whom are raising a family, got a well-deserved raise-when the federal minimum wage went up 50 cents an hour. On September 1, 1997, millions more workers will get another raise-when the federal minimum wage goes up an additional 40 cents an hour.

If you earn the federal minimum wage, watch your paycheck for this increase. See your employer immediately if you have any questions.

Or, contact the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division-the number for your local Wage and Hour office is in the blue pages of your phone book.(NAPSI)
