Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 189 / Monday, September 30, 2024 / Notices 79645 

2Contracts of the same kind as are covered by 

Executive Order 14026 and that were entered into, 

renewed, or extended prior to January 30, 2022, are 

generally subject to Executive Order 13658 and its 

lower minimum wage requirements. The Executive 

Order 13658 minimum wage and the cash wage 

required for tipped employees are currently $13.30 

and $9.30 per hour, respectively. See 88 FR 66903. 

3 In 1988, the reference base for the CPI–W was 

changed from 1967 = 100 to 1982–84 = 100. The 

1982–84 period was chosen to coincide with the 

updated expenditure weights which were based on 

the Consumer Expenditure Surveys for the years 

1982, 1983 and 1984. 

30, 2022; (ii) beginning January 1, 2023, 

85 percent of the wage in effect under 

section 2 of the order, rounded to the 

nearest multiple of $0.05; and (iii) 

beginning January 1, 2024, and for each 

subsequent year, 100 percent of the 

wage in effect under section 2 of the 

order. 86 FR 22836. This provision 

effectively phased out the ability of 

contractors to claim a ‘‘tip credit’’ under 

Executive Order 14026, meaning that, 

since January 1, 2024, contractors 

subject to the order have not been 

allowed to pay a lower cash wage to 

tipped employees. 

The Executive Order 14026 minimum 

wage is currently $17.20 per hour.2 The 

Department announced this rate on 

September 28, 2023, and it took effect 

on January 1, 2024. See 88 FR 66906. 

II. The 2025 Executive Order 14026 

Minimum Wage Rate 

Using the methodology set forth in 

Executive Order 14026 and summarized 

above, the Department must first 

determine the annual percentage 

increase in the CPI–W (United States 

city average, all items, not seasonally 

adjusted), as published by BLS, to 

determine the new Executive Order 

14026 minimum wage rate. In 

calculating the annual percentage 

increase in the CPI–W, the Department 

must compare the CPI–W for the most 

recent year available with the CPI–W for 

the preceding year. The Department 

therefore compares the percentage 

change in the CPI–W between the most 

recent year (i.e., the most recent four 

quarters) and the prior year (i.e., the four 

quarters preceding the most recent 

year). The Department then increases 

the current Executive Order minimum 

wage rate by the resulting annual 

percentage change and rounds to the 

nearest multiple of $0.05. 

To determine the Executive Order 

14026 minimum wage rate beginning 

January 1, 2025, the Department 

therefore calculated the CPI–W for the 

most recent year by averaging the CPI– 

W for the four most recent quarters, 

which consist of the first two quarters 

of 2024 and the last two quarters of 2023 

(i.e., July 2023 through June 2024). This 

produced an average index level of 

303.729.3 The Department then 

compared that data to the average CPI– 

W for the preceding year—294.367— 

which consists of the first two quarters 

of 2023 and the last two quarters of 2022 

(i.e., July 2022 through June 2023). 

Based on this methodology, the 

Department determined that the annual 

percentage increase in the CPI–W 

(United States city average, all items, 

not seasonally adjusted) was 3.180 

percent ((303.729 ÷ 294.367)¥1). The 

Department then applied that annual 

percentage increase of 3.180 percent to 

the current Executive Order 14026 

minimum wage ($17.20 per hour), 

which resulted in an hourly wage rate 

of $17.747 (($17.20 × 0.03180) + $17.20); 

however, pursuant to Executive Order 

14026, the updated minimum wage rate 

must be rounded to the nearest multiple 

of $0.05. 

Accordingly, effective January 1, 

2025, the new minimum wage rate that 

must generally be paid to workers 

performing on or in connection with 

contracts covered by Executive Order 

14026 will be $17.75 per hour. 

III. Appendices 

Appendix A to this notice provides a 

chart of the CPI–W data published by 

BLS that the Department used to 

calculate the new Executive Order 

14026 minimum wage rate based on the 

methodology explained herein. A poster 

reflecting the new Executive Order 

14026 minimum wage rate will be 

publicly available on the WHD website 

on January 1, 2025.

OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND 

BUDGET 

Notice of Training Session: Effective 

Participation in Executive Order 12866 

Meetings With the Office of Information 

and Regulatory Affairs (With Live 

Translation in Spanish, Mandarin 

Chinese, and ASL Interpretation) 

AGENCY: Office of Management and 

Budget, Executive Office of the 

President. 

ACTION: Notice of training session. 

SUMMARY: Interested members of the 

public may request a meeting with the 

Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs (OIRA) to present their views 

about a regulatory action that is under 

OIRA review. These meetings, known as 

E.O. 12866 meetings, serve as listening 

sessions for OIRA officials and 

representatives from the agency or 

agencies taking the regulatory action. To 

assist members of the public seeking to 

request an E.O. 12866 meeting, OIRA 

has modified its website and posted an 

instructional video (in English and 

Spanish) and a step-by-step guide to 

requesting a meeting on its website. 

Moreover, to encourage participation by 

those who have not historically 

requested E.O. 12866 meetings, 

including those from underserved 

communities, OIRA will offer periodic 

and accessible trainings on effective 

participation in E.O. 12866 meetings. 

OIRA has recently held three training 

sessions on E.O. 12866 meeting 

participation, including one training 

session conducted entirely in Spanish to 

assist Spanish-speaking members of the 

public who may wish to request an E.O. 

12866 meeting in the future. OIRA is 

offering another training session on E.O. 

12866 meeting participation next 

month. This training session will have 

live audio translation in Spanish and 

Mandarin Chinese, in addition to ASL 

interpretation and English captioning. 

DATES: The training session will be held 

on October 2, 2024, at 3 to 3:45 p.m., 

eastern time. 

ADDRESSES: Information to access the 

virtual training sessions will be 

provided upon registration. Members of 

the public may register by sending an 

email to publicparticipation@

omb.eop.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Please email the Office of Management 

and Budget at publicparticipation@

omb.eop.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive 

Order 12866 establishes and governs the 

process under which OIRA reviews 

agencies’ significant regulatory actions. 

E.O. 12866 provides that members of the 

public may meet with OIRA during 

OIRA’s review of draft proposed and 

final rules. These meetings, known as 

E.O. 12866 meetings, offer an 

opportunity for members of the public 

to present their views on regulatory 

actions under review. OIRA invites 

representatives from the agency or 

agencies taking the regulatory action to 

these meetings, though participation 

may be limited by scheduling or other 

considerations. E.O. 12866 meetings 

serve as listening sessions for OIRA and 

agency representatives, and both the 

identity of meeting attendees and any 

written materials provided by the 

meeting requestors are disclosed on 

OIRA’s website. 

In an effort to facilitate meeting 

requests, OIRA has modified its website 

to simplify the request form and to 

provide several avenues through which 

outside parties can request meetings.1 In 

addition, OIRA has provided detailed 

written step-by-step instructions in 

English and Spanish,2 as well as a video 

(also translated into Spanish),3 on its 

website, RegInfo.gov, on how to 

schedule a meeting. To facilitate broader 

participation in E.O. 12866 meetings, 

including by requestors who have not 

historically requested such meetings or 

face challenges in traveling to 

Washington, DC, OIRA holds E.O. 12866 

meetings virtually, primarily as 

teleconferences. 

To encourage participation by 

members of the public who have not 

historically requested E.O. 12866 

meetings, including members of 

underserved communities, OIRA will 

offer periodic and accessible trainings 

on effective participation in E.O. 12866 

meetings. OIRA recently held three 

training sessions. OIRA will be hosting 

another training session on October 2, 

2024, at 3 to 3:45 p.m., eastern time. 

This training session will have live 

audio translation in Spanish and 

Mandarin Chinese, in addition to ASL 

interpretation and English captioning. 

At the training session, OIRA will 

describe (1) what an E.O. 12866 meeting 

is; (2) how members of the public may 

request and schedule a meeting; (3) the 

format of E.O. 12866 meetings; (4) what 

type of information or input is most 

helpful to receive during an E.O. 12866 

meeting; and (5) what makes for an 

effective presentation during an E.O. 

12866 meeting.
