Bill overview
This bill prohibits employers in Michigan from using employee gratuities to offset wages. It clarifies that gratuities remain the property of the employee who receives them, regardless of the minimum wage rate paid. The bill also establishes a schedule for increasing the percentage of the minimum wage that employees receive in gratuities, starting in 2025 and continuing through 2031. Finally, it requires employers to provide written notice to both employees and consumers about their plan for distributing service charges.
