much more than $8.25 per hour, your
employer must pay you an additional
$2.13 per hour. For example, if you
work a six-hour day and receive $90
in tips (including cash that you take
home), that would mean that you
made $15 per hour in tips. Even so,
your employer must pay you an additional
$2.13 per hour for a paycheck,
bringing your real gross hourly wage
up to $17.13 per hour.
The government takes seven deductions
from every employee in
America: State and Federal Income
Taxes, as well as deductions for Family
Leave, Social Security, Unemployment,
Disability, and Medicare. As
tipped employees can take home
most of their cash tips, these deductions
can exceed the $2.13 per hour
additional that your employer pays
you by check. In such cases, the entire
$2.13 per hour would go to the
government to satisfy these deductions.
The check will be zero because
the funds were transferred from
your employer to
the government.
Tipped employees’
income is
subject to the
same withholding
as non-tipped
employees.
As a tipped
employee,
am i entitled
to a premium payment
for overtime?
Yes. Whenever you work more
than 40 hours in an established work
week, all hours worked in excess of
40 must be compensated at the
overtime pay rate like any other nontipped
employee. Overtime must be
paid at 1.5 times the regular rate for
all hours worked in excess of 40. The
minimum overtime rate must not be
less than $12.38.
What we would like to point out is
that absolutely please tip for quality
service but do remember that all of
our waiters and waitresses live off of
your generosity.

What we can talk
about is how
they are paid now
since according
to a lot of our
comments people don’t have an understanding.
The New Jersey Restaurant
Association published an article
on this very subject, and for that,
we are going to reference it since it
will give you everything you need to
know.
What is the minimum wage
for tipped employees?
Tipped employees in the State of New
Jersey must make the same minimum
wage as everyone else: $8.25 for every
hour worked in a work week up
to 40 hours. Federal law requires that
employers pay no less than $2.13 for
all such hours. If your tips (over the
required $2.13) do not amount to at
least $8.25 per hour, your employer
must make up the difference in your
paycheck. This is a requirement and
not optional. Tipped employees are
not second-class citizens, and the law
entitles you to the same minimum
wage as everyone else.
What if i make more than the
minimum wage in tips alone?
Regardless of how much you make
in tips, your employer is required to
pay $2.13 per hour. Even if you make
