/3 Recent changes to the CA minimum wage, however, means that in California (which could drive change across the country), means that starting January 1, 2019, postdocs at most CA institutions will have to be paid a minimum of $49,920.
/13 Another interesting question is whether this change to California law will spread across the country - e.g. if postdocs are paid $62k in California, will postdoc still only be paid, say, $50k in New York? California is a big state and could influence the rest of the country!

/14 The most interesting outcome IMO though is this - will the NIH chose to follow pay scales mandated by California to ensure equal (higher) pay for all postdocs? Will they take these changes into consideration when determining grant sizes?

/15 Whatever happens, change is coming - and as a postdoc you should be aware. I hope most of this change will be good - higher and fairer postdoc pay! [As a sidenote, PIs should be aware too when budgeting for future grants...]

BTW, NY has the same provision with regard to exempt employees. It's a little more complicated because minimum wage isn't rising uniformly across the state (will hit $15 on 12/31/18 in NYC, on 12/31/19 downstate & at some point later upstate).
-
But an employee can only be considered exempt in NYS if they earn a weekly salary of the equivalent of 75x the full time minimum wage. So, for 2019 in the city, 75*15*52=$58,500.
