Vermont Business Magazine Today, King Arthur Flour - a Best Place to Work in Vermont every year since 2006 - announced it is raising its entry wage for everyone on the company payroll, including seasonal, part-time, and full-time employees. Beginning September 2, King Arthur Flour’s new company-wide wage minimum will be $15, with no reductions to any employee benefits or offerings. This far exceeds the Vermont state minimum wage of $10.78/hour.
As a certified B Corp, King Arthur Flour is committed to the best interests of its employees, community, and the environment. The company has opted to increase its minimum wage because it believes it is the right thing to do for current and future staff, and it will help workers live in the area for many years to come. As a 100% employee owned company, benefit eligible employees share in the value of the company in the form of a robust retirement benefit. The company also offers profit sharing, employer-matched 401k, and a tiered benefit package so that the lowest paid workers pay less for their health insurance programs.
King Arthur Flour is holding a job fair on September 7 and anyone hired will start at the new minimum wage of $15.
