Attachment B <br /> <br />14.) Q: <br />A: one hundred (100) or fewer persons <br />performing work for compensation in the previous calendar year. To calculate the size of a <br />business, please see question 15. <br />15.) Q: How do I determine my business size under the minimum wage ordinance? <br />A: ount the total number of persons performing work for <br />compensation. Add each person per week for each week of the previous calendar year and divide <br />by 52. Include full-time, part-time, jointly-employed, paid interns, seasonal, and temporary <br />workers, no matter where they are located. This calculation determines whether an employer is <br />for purposes of the ordinance (see questions 13 and 14). If an <br />employer is a franchise or a full-service restaurant, see questions 18 and 19 below. <br />Scenario (a): <br />Robot World, a business in Minneapolis, employed 30 full-time workers, 22 part-time <br />workers, and two temp workers each week last year. Robot World averaged a total of 54 <br />(30 + 22 + 2) workers minimum wage <br />ordinance because 54 is less than 100. (See also, question 14.) <br />Scenario (b): <br />Tree World is a business in Minneapolis. It is open all year round, but there is a lot of <br />variation in the number of persons working during the year. For 12 weeks of the year, it <br />employs 150 full-time workers. During the slowest 10 weeks, it only employs 25. For the <br />remaining 30 weeks, it employs 50 workers. <br />Tree World has to do some math. It looks like this: <br />12 weeks x 150 workers = 1,800 <br />10 weeks x 25 workers = 250 <br />30 weeks x 50 workers = 1,500 <br />1,800 + 250 + 1,500 = 3,550 <br />Divide 3,550 by 52 (weeks in a year) to get the average number of employees, like this: <br />3,550 / 52 = 68.27 employees (weekly average for one year) <br />Because 68.27 <br />ordinance.
