Do the wage and tips have to equal minimum wage?

This differs from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.In the United States, federally, the wage and tips have to equal at least minimum wage. Your employer HAS to pay you the difference of your tips from minimum wage, if you didn't end up meeting minimum wage.Example: If minimum wage is $8.00 and after that hour, you only received $6 in tips, then your employer owes you $2.00 for that hour. This can also be figured per shift totals. Exa: $8.00/hr per 8 Hour shift = $64/shift. If you only received $50 in tips that whole shift, then your employer owes you $14 for that shift.In Ontario, Canada, tips do not count towards regular wages. Your employer must pay you at least minimum wage beforetips.
