Local employers say wage hike will have little effect
A statewide wage increase from 3.35 to 4.25 dollars, phased in by 1991, is not expected to alter local pay much. Frederick managers report starting wages already above the new floor, with McDonald’s in the area paying 5 to 5.50 and some younger workers earning near 4.50 to 5.00. Several large Frederick County employers foresee minimal to no impact on current wages or hiring.
