Some businesses do not always tip their employees and ensure the extra income earned from clientele remains with employers. While tipping is not an obligation for customers, some servers seem to be obligated to "tip" the kitchen despite not earning tips from paying clients. Is this practice legal? What can servers do to protect their rights and wages? 

Teilen Celentano, a Toronto employment lawyer and Associate at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, joined Kelly Cutrara on 640 Toronto to discuss an employee's rights to tips and wage deductions.
