I’m part of a catering crew in Northern Virginia where the cost of living is high.
My company was recent bought out by a franchise and has created a new policy in regards to tipping.
I make $15/hr, and my tips for deliveries through the catering department is limited to $50. Anymore than this that is tipped goes into an “event fund” that will benefit other employees, including those who are not regularly tipped employees such as the kitchen staff.
In this area, tips are regularly from $100-300 easily, and I am not given many hours a week. Is it legal for this company to take large sums of tips directed to me?
