Tipped workers across Illinois could soon see a major change in how they are paid if newly proposed legislation passes in the state.
The proposed law, which was announced in partnership with the"One Fair Wage" organization, would not take away tips for such workers, but would raise their hourly pay
In Illinois, the minimum wage for 2024 rose to $14. The minimum wage for tipped employees sits at $8.40, with employers required to make up the difference if tips don't boost that pay rate to the standard minimum wage.which raised the minimum wage for tipped workers from $9 to $15.80 per hour, though such employees could still get tips.
"We have tracked 6,000 restaurants across the country, including several hundred here in Illinois that have voluntarily moved from paying a subminimum to paying a full, livable wage with tips on top because that is the only way to recruit staff in the worst staffing crisis in Illinois and national restaurant industry history," the organization said.
Franco Francese, the owner of Coarse Italian & Mattone said the legislation could lead to fewer tips for such workers.
