New Trump Rules That Could Waiters Millions

On Tuesday, the Department of Labor published new rules for restaurant workers.

The rule would allow restaurant owners to take employees' tips to pay "back-of-the-house" workers, such as cooks and dishwashers.

An analysis by the Economic Policy Institute found that change could cost workers more than $700 million in lost wages.

The regulation also allows employers to required tipped employees to perform more "non-tipped" work, such as cleaning.

"It's really, really clear this about the interests of corporate executives and shareholders," Heidi Shierholz, an economist at EPI, told Business Insider.
