Government consultation on tips

The Government has published a consultation paper which sets out proposals for the way in which businesses handle tips and service charges.

Proposals include:

Preventing / limiting Employer deductions from discretionary payments for service (except deductions for tax etc).
Updating the existing voluntary code of practice and giving it statutory recognition, to encourage adherence.
Increasing transparency for customers.
The consultation paper is available online. The consultation process will close on 27 June 2016.
