Is eating out about to become more expensive?

Posted by Sarah Loates on October 1, 2018 at 1:00pm in Reward & Recognition

Morning all

HR in the news again today where Theresa May has announced that restaurants will be legally barred from keeping tips from staff.

Some upmarket restaurants, typically add 12.5% onto a meal (ableit on a discretionary basis) and I have often wondered how much actually goes to reward the service you have received.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out at a time of rising food costs, and short supply of hospitatlity labour.

Is your business impacted by this, and if so what are your thoughts on this topic?

All the best
