In this the establishment is a bar/lounge. This employer insists on paying employees in cash to avoid paying SSC, or any other employee benefits. This server was not the only person to be taking cash and making change on the days the shortages occured. I was a waitress for 27 long years and if i remember correctly, it is unlawful to deduct shortages from employees pay unless there has been some kind of contract signed and even then it's "iffy". This young girl had $100.00 deducted from her pay, but the other bartender that was working had nothing deducted from hers. Legal? Thanks to whomever knows. : : Camilla,
