Amanda Chase on Jobs

 

 


Allow paying as tipped employees though banned from tips

Legislative Summary:HB56: Prohibits an employer from classifying an individual as a tipped employee if the individual is prohibited by applicable federal or state law or regulation from soliciting tips.

Analysis by 32BJ SEIU Service Union: Wheelchair attendants at Virginia airports were banned from asking for or soliciting tips yet could be still legally be paid as low as the $2.13 per hour, the Virginia tipped worker minimum wage. Because of this legislation, they will no longer be classified as tipped workers and now qualify for the airport minimum wage.

Legislative Outcome: Passed House 86-14-0 on Jan/22/20; Passed Senate 23-17-0 on Mar/5/20; State Sen. Amanda Chase voted NO; Signed by Governor Ralph Northam on Apr/11/20
