Don’t Overlook Employee Tip Recordkeeping – Simplify It by Using CloudApper for UKG

If you’re in the service sector, your employees typically receive tips from customers by providing them with outstanding services. While tips are a valuable source of income for your employees, they also come with a variety of legal and financial responsibilities for your organization. One of these responsibilities is accurate tip recordkeeping, which is mandated by the IRS and can ultimately help you with tax compliance and fraud prevention. Let’s explore the importance of employee tip recordkeeping and how UKG customers can simplify it with CloudApper’s Employee Tips Management Solution.

Importance of Employee Tip Recordkeeping

Employee tip recordkeeping is crucial for any organization that has tippable employees. That’s because the IRS requires employers to keep accurate records of tips received by their employees – tips are part of any employee’s income and are taxable. As a result, if employers don’t have accurate tip records, then they might be applicable for higher taxes. Moreover, failure to keep accurate records of employee tips can result in fines and penalties.

In addition to legal requirements, accurate tip recordkeeping is also essential for preventing fraudulent tip reporting. Without proper recordkeeping, employees may be tempted to underreport their tips or fail to report them at all. As mentioned previously, this can lead to employers paying higher taxes, and if any discrepancies are found, then both the employees and employers are applicable for fines and penalties.

For UKG customers with tippable customers, however, CloudApper brings the perfect solution to ensure accurate tip recordkeeping.
