Advice on staff paying for ‘profit loss’

Gonna keep this vague while I work out the general stance on this issue I work at a bar in the UK where my barstaff are paid minimum wage (I am a supervisor and get an additional £1 an hour) We've been told that when cash up comes in under (less in the tills than we should be) that the bar staff who worked that day have to pay for it Personally I believe minimum wage staff being charged means they're either not getting minimum wage or they're having their tips taken. Both are illegal as far as I'm aware. I also do the cash up myself every night and know for a fact the losses are less than 1% of the take for the day. Am I right in thinking this is illegal or am I at least right in not wanting to work for this company any longer?
