Sara Innamorato, a local government official, has implemented a policy to increase the minimum wage and enhance benefits for non-union county workers. This move aims to improve the standard of living for these employees and address wage disparities within the county workforce.
Newly inaugurated Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato has raised the minimum wage for county employees, with full-time workers now earning at least $18 an hour, set to increase to $22 by 2027, and part-time workers getting a minimum of $15 an hour. This move, effective immediately, impacts dozens of part-time and fewer than 500 full-time employees. The policy, which does not apply to unionized positions, is part of broader changes including overhauling vacation policy and lifting certain pre-employment requirements. Innamorato's administration aims to improve workforce conditions and competitiveness in the job market.
