PITTSBURGH – UPMC, including at UPMC Williamsport, will be increasing its minimum wage in the next few years.
UPMC announced Thursday it will increase its minimum wage for entry-level positions to $18 per hour by January 2025. Other UPMC branches will see the increase by January 2026.
UPMC says the decision comes as a way to support its workforce, recruit new employees and ‘continue to be the employer of choice in health care.’
UPMC says those currently making $18 an hour and taking advantage of its salary and benefits package will earn the equivalent of $27 per hour.
