Rules for Tips & Grats: What employees and employers must know

Virtual Workshop: February 27 – 1:00 PM EST.

Tip division, distribution, and taxation are common pain points for hospitality operators. Mismanagement of tips can cost you over $30K in tax liability for every $1M in sales.

Restaurants Canada has partnered with Atlas, a hospitality technology company, to introduce Atlas Direct Tips. Atlas Direct Tips automates tip division, distribution and compliance so that employers and employees can be exempt from CPP and EI contributions on the tips they generate.

Additionally, you’ll gain insights from James Rhodes of Taxation Lawyers, a seasoned tax expert with extensive experience in guiding hospitality businesses through the intricacies of tipping legislation. James Rhodes also authored Restaurants Canada’s tipping toolkit and is a trusted advisor to the organization.
