Re: Do you give tip to waiters ?
2.5 quid a hour? Dude ...either you aint legal or theres something fishy with that restaurant.....and it aint the cooking!
Well its simple, most employees working at desi shops aint registered for tax purpose. So no matter how many hours you do , u don’t make tax man happy . So what you earn goes straight in your pocket .
Where if some one is restricted to work certain hours by law , student visa holders for example , they easily become a target for such employers , as they needed to work full time ( either for supporting their studies or families back at home ) which they aren’t allowed because of their Visa status
So this abuse of system goes on basis of give and take theory. Employers want to save tax and employees want to earn few extra bob ended up working on a wage below national minimum wage .
