Ess Pay Increases Requested by Arizona Highway Commission
The Arizona Highway Commission weighs a bid from the Phoenix and Tucson Building Trades Councils for a sizable rise in the 85 cent hourly minimum on public works under $1,000. Charles Milne, representing the councils, argues some Tucson employers set the minimum as the ceiling. The panel may also segment minima by trade classifications while maintaining the current statewide rule. The commission also adopted a 20 mph work-zone speed limit and approved eight project awards.
