► A theoretical model of ability sorting of low-wage workers across multiple markets with wage floors is developed. ► Contrary to classical wage floor analysis, a wage floor increase can benefit both the covered and uncovered sectors. ► Employment probability differences across markets are crucial to understand the impact of wage floor changes.
