The Saskatchewan government is revamping its employment standards and asking the public for feedback on what needs to change. Some current and former restaurant servers said it's time for new rules on tipping.
Laura Civica of Saskatoon says they experienced unfair and inconsistent tipping rules at the various restaurants they worked at.
"Tips belong to employees. Without question, tips belong to employees," said Jennifer Henshaw, who is the vice president of the prairies and the north for Restaurants Canada — an association that represents the Canadian food service industry.WATCH| This is why people say Saskatchewan needs to regulate tipping:DurationThe Government of Saskatchewan is revamping its employment standards and some restaurant servers say it's time for new rules on tipping.
Civica said they would make at least $100 in tips per night. But when they received their tip-out after a few months of work, they would only get around $500 back when the tip money was redistributed — a fraction of what they had actually earned. "Sometimes I have new staff in the kitchen who mess up, and I still have to give them a tip even if I don't get one...[It] makes no sense to me considering their wage is already higher than a server who always makes minimum [wage]," they said.
