Tipping and Service Charge Policy
About this document
The written tipping policy that UK employers must have where tips, gratuities or service charges are received other than occasionally and exceptionally. It explains how all tips are passed to workers in full, how they are shared fairly, when they are paid, how tax and NIC apply, and how workers can see the tipping record.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
