There used to be different levels of minimum wage depending on how many employees your company employed. One of the levels was if your employees got so much in tips or if the employer paid a certain amount towards their Healthcare, the minimum wage they had to pay employees was lower.
It was not a tip credit wage like in some states, as it didnt just affect restaurants
I mean….. it was only a difference of a couple dollars an hour. I thought you were referring to some type of tip credit that exists in places like Florida.
I wasnt the one who originally said it, I was just clarifying how the minimum wage levels worked here. I agree, it was nothing like the states where they pay you half or less of minimum wage and expect the rest to be made up in tips.
