What is Delaware minimum wage? Federal minimum wage applies: $7.25
What is the minimum wage for tipped employees? The hourly wage for most Delaware tipped employees is $2.23 an hour, as long as the employee’s tips make up the difference between the hourly wage and the applicable minimum wage. If it does not the employer must make up the difference.
When am I eligible to earn overtime? Delaware has no state overtime law, so eligible employees are generally covered under the federal overtime requirements under the Fair Labor Standards Act, which mandates time-and-a-half pay for every hour over 40 worked in a workweek.
Am I entitled to a lunch or rest break? An unpaid, 30-minute meal break after the first two hours of work, and before the last two hours of work for eligible employees who work seven-and-a-half or more consecutive hours.
