据外媒报道,美国纽约州拟立法,在未来几年内把最低时薪提到15美元,这将对快餐业产生较大影响。
纽约州州长已经获得两党议员同意,将立法在未来6年内把纽约州的最低工资提高66%,达到15美元/小时。
根据报告,纽约市青年失业率已较高,大约在25%-30%之间。萨茨曼(Michael Saltsman)称,15美元最低工资会让青年就业情况变得更糟。
最低工资的上调不只是对快餐业的产品价格、竞争能力和就业数量有影响,甚至暑期招工都会受到影响。
纽约“多佛自由港熟食店”(Dover Caterers of Freeport)老板亚马利(Butch Yamali)说,他们每年夏天都雇用很多学生做暑期工作,大约有500名假期工,然而今年州的15美元最低工资削弱了我们雇人的能力。

Gov. Cuomo, in a bipartisan agreement with state lawmakers, agreed last fall to raise the minimum wage in most of the state by 66 percent over the next six years, to $15 an hour. The plan includes a smaller increase for some upstate regions.
“New York City already has a high youth unemployment rate of between 25 percent and 30 percent. But this will make it worse,” says Michael Saltsman, research director at the Washington, DC-based institute.
