I recently left an establishment that I worked at for 2 years. The business accepted tips for the employees, but instead of distributing the tips, they would use the money to stock the break room for everyone.
Recently a bunch of us left, some with knowledge on the amount of tips we were receiving vs. the amount of things they would provide us with.
There’s also a slew of other violations and hazards, but I mainly wanted to know if it was worth pursuing legally, and how to go about it.
