Who never went through this, right? You go to a restaurant or bar with your friends or family, and after consuming and asking for the bill, the waiter's 10% tip is included in the amount to be paid. In the past, the law was not very clear regarding this action. However, in 2017, the Tipping Law was created. Know what it's about.

Before the Tipping Law came into effect, the 10% service fee was not part of an establishment's employee salary. However, after the creation of this law, the service fee began to form part of about two thirds of the employees' salary, starting to be registered in the work card.
In this way, the Law of the Tip came to determine that it is necessary to calculate an average related to the value of that remuneration, per month, being mandatory that this value be registered in the work card and in the social security Social. However, although this law currently exists to regulate the service fee, there is no set amount for this charge, which means that an establishment can propose a higher or lower percentage than the 10%.
Although there is a Tipping Law to protect the rights of servers, it is not mandatory to pay the 10% after consuming in a restaurant or bar. With this, the customer has the right to decide whether to contribute or not. This way, he can still choose to pay more or less than 10% for the service fee.
In addition, the establishment may also keep a portion of the tip amount. However, this money must be used for the purposes of social, labor or social security charges, so that the amount cannot be used to replace the salary of employees.
Finally, even though it is not mandatory, paying for the service fee is a great way to encourage the employee. In addition, it shows that you are approving the service and want to return to the establishment more often.
