I work at a cafe-type shop in Washington state. The employee handbook states that credit card fees are taken out of the credit card tips, and then describes how the remaining tips are distributed between staff. Is it legal for employers to use tips to cover the shop’s credit card fees? If not, where can this be reported/what can I do next?
