You’ve never waited tables, have you? They tried paying high hourly wages in NYC and lost their best people. https://www.tvo.org/article/whatever-happened-to-the-no-tipping-experiment-it-failed https://www.businessinsider.com/danny-meyers-no-tip-policy-struggles-2017-10

As an additional statement, there’s a way to review this legislation on the Regulations.gov site, where you can also submit comments until August 2021 for those interested in submitting how this would affect HR paperwork and job sites (restaurants, especially the small private ones)

I know for a fact, that here in my location all service workers get $15/hour and there’s a section on the bill presented to the customers that show a gratuity fee (about 20% of the total) already added to what the consumer pays. The customer can pay that amount or an amount of their choice but it is paid directly to the till not left on the table. What is not addressed in this article is the under-reported tip wages in those areas that pay servers lower than the minimum wage. If the state requires every employee to be paid a minimum wage of $15/hour then those tip wages also have to be recorded correctly too. I would like this issue addressed too. Like that employer has to monitor in detail, non-service job time, those servers should have to report all tip income. At least, in the states paying the higher $15/hour wage, the correct tax will come out of the paycheck, for the declared tip income, since it will be on record from the reciepts.
