The Dept. of Labor has just issued a "final rule" regarding tipped employees. However, although better for employees in most states, California's Labor Code is much better for CA tipped employees.

The new DOL final rule on tipped employees allows tips to reduce the employer's minimum wage obligation. California does not allow for any tip credits.
