Tennessee does not have minimum wage or overtime law. The state does have a promised wage law whereby the employers are responsible for paying to the employees the wages promised by the employer. Most workers are covered under the Federal minimum wage, which is $7.25 per hour. Federal law also requires most workers to be paid overtime after 40 hours per week.*
All wages or compensation earned and unpaid prior to the first day of any month must be due and payable no later than the twentieth day of the month following the one in which such wages were earned. All wages or compensation earned and unpaid prior to the sixteenth day of any month must be due and paid no later than the fifth day of the succeeding month. The final wages of an employee who quits or is discharged must include any vacation pay or other compensatory time that is owed to the employee by virtue of company policy or labor agreement.*
Tennessee employers pay the full cost of unemployment insurance for their employees. Nothing is deducted from the employee's pay to cover the cost of this insurance nor does any money come from State of Tennessee's funds.*
