Also, employers may require tipped employees to participate in a tip pool. However, there are many rules that employers must follow with tip pools. Common tip pool violations include:
- Failure to inform tipped employees how the tip pool works;
- Including employees in a tip pool that cannot be included by law; and
- Employers who take improper deductions from tip pools (like glass breakage fees).
When an employer pays tipped employees incorrectly, the employer owes the employees the full minimum wage for each hour worked and full overtime wages for any overtime hours worked for the past two or three years.
Contact our employment attorneys if you are a tipped employee and are not being paid correctly.
