The Tipped Minimum Wage in MassachusettsService workers who earn tips can legally paid at a lower hourly rate than the standard minimum wage, called the tipped minimum wage.
If you earn $20 or more in tips per week, your employer can pay you at this lower rate. Be aware, though, that the employer is responsible for making sure your hourly wage and tips combined meet the current state minimum wage of $15.00 per hour each week.
