An employment law firm in Southern California stands ready to fight for tipped employees in the Southern California.

BURBANK, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, January 18, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Representatives of the Akopyan Law Firm announced that their law firm stands ready to protect the rights of tipped employees who have been denied tips partially or fully by their employers in SoCal.

“We are proud to be able to protect the rights of tipped worker in Southern California” said Michael Akopyan, founder and partner at the Akopyan Law Firm.

“Employers are not allowed to deduct tips from wages,” said Akopyan and revealed, “According to Labor Code Section 351, an employer must pay the full amount of the tip that the customer left for the employee.”

Employers cannot deduct credit card processing fees or charges from tips received by employees. Additionally, because tips are left by customers and are not paid by employers, they do not count towards hourly wages.

“An employer cannot take any part of a tip and cannot deduct tips from wages,” highlighted Akopyan and said, “Employees working in the Los Angeles area who feel that they may have been denied tips fully or partially by their employers are welcome to contact Akopyan Law’s employment law attorneys in Burbank to discuss their potential case in a complimentary case evaluation.”

“We are dedicated to protecting employees and enforcing their rights,” added Akopyan.
