Ohio Minimum Wage Set to Increase on January 1: For most workers in Ohio, the minimum wage will go up to $10.45 in the new year.

From January 1, workers who don’t get tips will make more per hour than $10.10.

There has been a rise of about 3.5%. According to the website for the Ohio Department of Commerce, lawmakers in 2006 passed a constitutional change that says the state’s minimum wage must rise every year on January 1 to keep up with inflation.
