WRA's Position on the Minimum Wage and Tip Credit

2/24/2021

 
The Wisconsin Restaurant Association agrees a discussion is needed regarding the current federal minimum wage. It has been over a decade since it was increased and those discussions are overdue. 

However, now is not the time to raise the minimum wage or eliminate the tip credit. Restaurants are experiencing the worst economic downturn in history during the COVID-19 pandemic. Some restaurants will not see an economic recovery until 2023, or later. 
​
The restaurant industry needs time to recover, but at the same time, the Wisconsin Restaurant Association and its members are ready to have a conversation about a balanced way to address wage levels in the foodservice industry and the unique impact any change would have on the economic recovery of its employees and restaurant operators.

Work Permits Needed For 14- and 15-Year-Old Employees

2/9/2021

 
Any teen under age 16 must have a work permit BEFORE that teen begins work.

Any exceptions to this during COVID-19 have expired. If you hired any teens during the work permit holiday, submit your application and $10 permit fee NOW. You should already have the documentation required so make sure to follow up and submit it to your local work permit office.

Questions? Email or call the Ask WRA Team at 608-270-9950
