Which official workforce rule belongs in an Ogden staffing brief?

Utah's minimum wage is $7.25 an hour, unchanged and tied to the federal floor, per the Utah Labor Commission, so price Ogden crew rates off the state/federal floor, not a local figure.

Salt Palace Convention Center runs 515,000 square feet of contiguous exhibit space across 9 halls, plus 164,000 square feet of meeting space and a 45,000 square foot ballroom, served by 40 loading docks. Crew call sheets should stage to a specific dock and hall assignment, not just a hall letter.
