Six Flags Great Adventure workers get a raise to $15 per hour JACKSON — Six Flags Great Adventure is giving its workers a raise as the park staffs up for the start of the 2021 season and hosts a virtual job fair on Saturday. Many positions within the park will now pay $15 per hour, an increase of $4 per hour, while food and beverage operations, custodial services, security, shuttle drivers, and lifeguards will earn even more, according to Park President John Winkler. Leadership positions will also pay more. New Jersey's minimum wage increased to $12 at the start of this year and will increase $1 per year until reaching $15 in 2024. A federal $15 minimum wage is included in the latest coronavirus relief bill, which has not yet been put up for a vote.
