A bartender is entitled to one and one-half the federal minimum wage or regular rate of pay. However, tipped Bartenders must be informed in advance if the employer elects to use a tip credit as part of the minimum wage calculation. Additionally, if the employer includes a tip pool, those that participate in that pool must be employees who customarily and regularly receive tips.
