UK to Ban Restaurants & Pubs from Keeping Staff Tips

The new law, which is expected to benefit about two million hospitality workers, follows a series of revelations that companies were taking money from card payments intended for waiters and kitchen staff. Local media said the practice reportedly took place at chains like Pizza Express, Giraffe, Côte Brasserie and Bill's. The BBC quoted British labour markets minister Paul Scully as saying that the changes would "ensure tips will go to those who worked for it".
