|
Some employers require their tip-based, hourly employees to place a percentage of their tips into a collective pool. The pool is then divided among the tipped employees. This arrangement is often referred to as tip pooling. Under federal law, employees who receive tips as part of their general compensation, such as wait staff, bartenders, bellhops and others, can be required to share and/or pool their tips if the following guidelines are met: The percentage and/or amount of tips contributed to the pool must be customary and reasonable, and must not make any employee’s wage fall below the legal minimum wage;
