This ordinance sets standards for the percentage of tips that may be counted toward an employee's hourly wage. It protects employees' tips, ensures that employers adhere to reporting requirements, and sets violation penalties for enforcement. Tipped workers benefit from these protections because they face economic instability and underreport workplace abuses due to their reliance on tips.
