Cook County IL Factsheet

THE SUBMINIMUM WAGE for tipped workers is $8.00 an hour in the state of Illinois, compared to the state’s full hourly minimum wage of $13.

A direct legacy of slavery, the subminimum wage impacts a Cook County workforce of almost 78,000 tipped workers, 60 percent of whom are women and 46 percent are people of color, who earn on average just $16.68 per hour.
