It isn't legal for your manager to take your tips. Unless it's a "tip pool" then they can take 99%. Is this right?

The only way a manager should be taking any portion of any tips from a customer is if they are the sole worker serving that customer. They are not entitled to tips earned by subordinates, even if those subordinates have a tip sharing arrangement.

This opinion does not reflect the employment standards act in Ontario.

What does the employment standards act say?
