Fair Tips Statutory Code of Practice

The Department for Business and Trade is developing a statutory code of practice to ensure tips, gratuities, and service charges are distributed fairly and transparently to workers in hospitality and related sectors. The code addresses concerns that employers may retain or misallocate tips intended for staff. The policy is currently active with draft regulations and consultation documents published.
