Protecting Employees’ Rights

If you are required to pool tips at your job, your employer could be at fault. Does your employer require you to tip out staff who do not serve others? Is so, your employer could be at fault.

 

Since Federal law stipulates that employers can pay tipped workers $2.13 an hour, the tips made are crucial in bringing up that hourly amount. Many servers make above minimum wage, but when you have your employer requiring to pool tips or tip-out other staff, what feels like a good shift, turns into a bad one.

 

If you are facing tip stealing or have any questions, please call us. You worked for it. You deserve to keep it. We want to help.
