The Prince George’s County minimum wage will increase to $11.50 per hour on October 1, 2017. The “Tip Wage” in Prince George’s remains frozen at $3.63 per hour.
As a reminder, employers based in other jurisdictions who send employees into Prince George’s County are required to comply with the higher local minimum wage for employees who spend time working in the county. October marks the two-year anniversary of the U.S. migration to EMV smart-chip enabled payment technology. Despite the fact that the migration was accompanied by a card-present fraud liability shift to the party using the least secure technology, Visa reports that only about 2 million U.S. merchants have transitioned to this new level of technology. This leaves nearly 67 percent of U.S. merchants vulnerable, as fraudsters turn their focus to non-EMV enabled businesses.
EMV, which stands for Europay, MasterCard and Visa, is the global standard for cards equipped with computer chips and the technology used to authenticate chip-card transactions. EMV cards are embedded with a smart chip that creates a unique transaction code that cannot be used again, improving the payment security for consumers. How criminals take advantage |
