The minimum wage requirements of this chapter are not intended to preempt and may not be construed to preempt any additional or more generous wage or other employment requirements that apply by regulation, contract or otherwise to employees working in the city. In particular, this chapter does not amend or otherwise affect the city’s living wage requirements codified in Chapter 8.36. Employers that are subject to this chapter and that are also subject to Chapter 8.36 must to the fullest possible extent comply with all applicable requirements in both this chapter and Chapter 8.36. Nothing in this chapter excuses employers’ full compliance with all applicable requirements of the city’s living wage requirements in Chapter 8.36, and nothing in Chapter 8.36 excuses full compliance with all applicable minimum wage requirements of this chapter. To the extent wages employers owe employees under this chapter and under Chapter 8.36 differ, employers must pay employees the higher applicable wage. (Ord. 2691 NCS §3 (part), 2019.)
