AI Summary
This bill aims to amend the existing Massachusetts law regarding the pooling of tips. It proposes to include supervisors in quick-service restaurants who regularly serve customers, but whose duties do not qualify them as executives, as eligible to participate in the tip pool. The bill also defines "quick-service restaurant" as an establishment where food or beverages are primarily served over a counter or drive-thru, with minimal direct table service, and where employees are paid at least the minimum required hourly wage. Additionally, the bill clarifies that employers can establish a policy prohibiting the acceptance of gratuities.
