Question

Are there any rules about Hotel Companies using part of the Tips for a Staff Fund?

Answer 1

it depends on the hotel, if someone says they cant accept a tip it would be better keeping the money.

i know when i was at disney we had to turn in any tips and then disney just got more money not the poor kids who were only making $5.00 an hour before taxes

Answer 2

I would check with your local Hotel & Restaurant Worker's Union and find out what the state law indicates regarding this involuntary "donation" of your sacred tip money. I can almost guarantee it is illegal for them to do so unless very specific documentation exists and is given to you regarding the "Staff Fund".  What does the Staff Fund do for YOU?
