INFORMATIONAL MEMO <br />Page 2 <br />To achieve this goal, staff continues to strategically research City businesses to identify <br />each covered employer and their payroll or human resources contact information to <br />establish contact, provide education, and request certification form. <br />In 2024, 5% of the 2,400 estimated employers in Tukwila certified their compliance. As a <br />result of database building efforts in 2024 and Q1 2025, 9% of possible annual compliance <br />certifications have been received in 2025. This is an increase of 4% compared to 2024 in <br />Q1 2025 alone. <br />On July 1, 2025, the Ordinance will have been in effect for two years. As the database of <br />employers covered by the Ordinance grows, a pattern of non -compliant employers will be <br />assessed. Staff will work with City Leadership and City Attorney for interpretation of TMC <br />5.63 enforcement requirements for repeated, intentional non -compliant employers. <br />The attached chart provides a comparison of Tukwila's, Renton's, and SeaTac's minimum <br />wage programs. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Information Only. <br />https://tukwilawa.sharepoint.com/sites/mayorsoffice/cc/Council Agenda Items/Finance/FINAL DRAFT_3-24-2025_Minimum Wage Ordinance_F&G <br />Presentation.docx <br />44 <br />
