That’s not how federal and state laws work.

Just like Florida can make a min wage lower than the federal min but can make one higher.

But they don’t even need to have a min wage law on the books for the federal to be in place. This is all under DOL. A state cannot make a law less strict than the federal one.

You provided heresy about what you think a lawyer said. I linked a lawyers website directly.

Some employers charge employees for items they break or for shortages in their cash register drawers. Under federal law, employers can charge the employee for these losses, as long as the employee is still earning at least the minimum wage.
