HB 757: relative to tip pooling and sharing and automatic service charges.

HB 757 amends New Hampshire law to clarify rules for tip pooling and sharing in restaurants and bars. It requires employers to document tip-sharing arrangements with a clear example (like "servers tip out X% of alcohol sales to bartenders") and provide employees with written notice stating participation is voluntary, specifying who they may share tips with, and allowing them to opt out each shift. Employers must retain this written notice for one year after an employee leaves. The bill directly affects tipped workers and their employers by ensuring transparency and voluntary participation in tip-sharing systems.
