Should the end of Ontario's liquor server wage mean lower tips for restaurant workers?
from This Matters · host Toronto Star
Guest: Rosa Saba, business reporter for the Star Ontario, unlike elsewhere in Canada, has had a much lower minimum wage for liquor servers leading to a culture of tipping, not just for great service but to help balance the wage disparity. Now, starting in 2022, front-of-house workers in hospitality will see a $2.45 hourly pay increase to align closer to the minimum wage. But Ontario's minimum wage is still far from the $20 per hour living wage needed, according to the Living Wage Network. So, should we keep tipping? What will happen to our "culture" to tip? Business reporter Rosa Saba has some tips for "This Matters" listeners.
