Minimum Wage of Women Engaged in Housekeeping Up Salem, A 10 cents an hour raise in the legal minimum wage for women in public housekeep ing occupations will go into effect Friday, according to new regulations recently adopted by the State Wage and Hour Com mission. Minors under 18 may be employed at the previous min imum of 65 cents an hour but sub-minimum pay for learners is not allowed under the revised order. Labor Commissioner Norman O. Nilsen, executive secretary i of the Commission, said the order also lifts the legal over time rate for women and minor employees from Vi times the legal minimum rate to IV2 times the regular rate of pay which generally is more than the legal minimum. Work in excess of an eight-hour day, 44-hour, six-day week is allowable, however, only in emergencies through a special permit granted the employer by the labor commissioner. Gratui ties received by and employee can not be considered any part of the wage, according to the commission's ruling.
